Brookdale Senior Living Celebrates More Than 750 Residents Aged 100+ on National Centenarian’s Day

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. - Brookdale Senior Living proudly celebrates National Centenarian's Day by honoring approximately 750 residents across the country who have reached the extraordinary milestone of 100 years or older. As the nation's largest senior living provider, Brookdale is privileged to serve these inspiring individuals who exemplify resilience, wisdom, and longevity.

"Reaching 100 years of age is more than a milestone-it's a legacy. Our centenarian residents have lived through incredible chapters of history, and their stories continue to inspire us every day," Brookdale Senior Vice President of Resident & Family Engagement Sara Terry said. "At Brookdale, we're honored to partner with these extraordinary individuals to help them thrive and continue to lead meaningful lives."

Each of Brookdale's 750+ centenarians is part of an exclusive group, with centenarians making upjust 0.03 percent of all Americans. While genetics plays a role in longevity, studies show that environment and lifestyle also contribute to a long life. A recent study found that older adults who move into senior living communities often experience better health outcomes and increased longevity compared to those living in the greater community.

As part of a commitment to lifelong well-being, Brookdale offers a person-centered approach aimed at building meaningful friendships, supporting social connections, and enhancing the quality of life for all residents. Brookdale recognizes the profound privilege of learning from our residents' experiences and wisdom. We are committed to supporting our residents to not only to live longer, but also to live with purpose and meaning.
