More Rocking. Less Chair.
Life is an amazing and precious thing. And we believe in soaking up every last bit of it. That’s why we’re so determined to change the age-old story of our sick care system, which often overlooks our aging generations. We exist to fan the spark in their lives. To help them live happy and healthy so that they don’t just age, but age magnificently.
The Problem
The sick-care roller coaster is the up and down cycle of sickness, injury, rehab, and re-injury that too many seniors experience. And it almost always ends the same way — with lost independence. Watch the video below to learn more…
Our Vision
The antidote to a “sick care” system
We’ve seen far too many people experience the ‘sick-care’ roller coaster. Enough!
The antidote demands a multifaceted, integrated system using a whole-person approach that truly puts older adults in the middle and builds an ecosystem of complete senior health services, support, and joy around them. It’s a seamless, coordinated system that works proactively to keep you doing the things you love with the people you cherish. It champions strength, purpose, and belonging.
And our unique life-centric capabilities become even more powerful in Lifespark Senior Living communities. Check out COMPLETE Senior Living.

The latest Lifespark news and innovation
Lifespark founder Joel Theisen
“I started in the trenches, caring for people who were in their second half of life. And through the years, I saw far too many people on the health care rollercoaster. That’s when I and a group of colleagues decided there had to be a better way.
My true joy is seeing the renewed spark in peoples’ eyes, whether it’s a client, family member, partner, employee, or professional referral source — I want them all to age magnificently. But this is just the beginning.”
Sparking lives since 2004
Formed out of frustration
In the beginning, it was clear that existing senior care models didn’t go far enough to address seniors' overall health and well-being. So Joel Theisen founded AgeWell, a company that for the first time, recognized emotional and spiritual wellness as the key components in seniors’ well-being
Hello Lifespark
The company changed their name to Lifespark, a name that reflects what they do, providing the zest reigniting the 'spark' in the eyes and lives of seniors. Today Lifespark is a pioneer in whole person senior health, focused on helping people build a pathway to live their best life.
There’s Purpose in Our Story
We started in private-pay with the value-add of life management. We knew home care alone wasn’t enough, so we moved into senior living. Then we added home health, hospice, and dove head-first into the depths of value-based care with senior-savvy primary care and urgent response services. What we’ve learned along the way in over twenty years of being prolific learners, people want to live with purpose. And it’s infused all we do.
Now today, with decades of senior living expertise, we’ve merged our comprehensive capabilities into an unprecedented complete senior health model that has transformed senior living from a place to go, to a place to grow.
