In 2011, Brad Breeding was a financial advisor in Raleigh, North Carolina. He realized that many people felt confused and overwhelmed by the various senior living options and the nuances between them, particularly as it relates to continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs, or “life plan” communities).

Brad also realized that there was a lack of unbiased and in-depth information to help consumers and their advisors effectively navigate the decision process. It was this realization that inspired the concept that would become MyLifeSite.

Today, myLifeSite provides community-specific profile reports, combined with educational content, to help consumers and those who advise them make better informed decisions about senior living. We also equip life plan communities (continuing care retirement communities, CCRCs) and other senior living providers with tools and resources to help them reach and serve more prospective residents.

What Differentiates myLifeSite

1. A Dual Commitment

We believe the best retirement communities deliver wellness, social, lifestyle, and healthcare benefits that can be life changing for many senior adults. We also believe senior living consumers should be empowered with the necessary information and tools to make the most informed decisions about their future. Therefore, myLifeSite seeks to enhance both the consumer’s decision-making process and the senior living industry as a whole through our various online tools and resources.

2. Supporting Informed Decisions

myLifeSite was founded on the recognition that many prospective residents of retirement communities don’t feel as though they have a knowledgeable and/or unbiased source for guidance on the complexities of the senior living decision process. myLifeSite seeks to be the most sought-after online resource for general senior living education, community specific details, and financial/affordability analysis to support informed planning for the future.

3. Added Focus on Independent Living

When it comes to searching for senior living communities online, many websites tend to focus more heavily on assisted living and nursing care providers. But for retirees who are still independent and active, proactively planning a move to an independent living community or a continuing care retirement community (CCRC or ‘life plan community’) can be more challenging. Due to the myriad details and nuances comparing these communities can be confusing and overwhelming. myLifeSite helps to fill this gap by providing more of the information you need.

“Our research of CCRCs always left us with more questions than answers until we discovered myLifeSite.”
