Cornerstone LifeCare Purpose

Cornerstone LifeCare LLC is a network of professional Partners who provide options for essential Living Environments as well as comprehensive Personal Services for “Aging Well and in the Right Place.” When appropriate, Universal Design is integral to vital building and remodeling strategies. Our primary focus is on the senior population of Sarasota, Manatee, and surrounding counties along with their families, care givers, and circle of supporters.

A key differentiator in the delivery of our products and services is through the engagement of hands-on guidance from our team of Cornerstone LifeCare Consultants, who carefully explore solutions that best meet our clients’ needs.

Cornerstone LifeCare Vision

Our commitment is to help create and facilitate Living Environments where individuals will “Age with Dignity” through comfort, accessibility, safety, and overall good health. In addition to a focus on the physical surroundings, we offer comprehensive Personal Services by connecting with professional Partners who share the same goals of expressing compassion, love, and excellence.
