Our Story: Built From a Search That Came Up Empty

Century Assisted Living exists because two brothers couldn't find, for their own mother, the care they knew she deserved.

Home › Our Story

Richard, Patrick, and their mother


When their mother was living with Alzheimer's, brothers Richard and Patrick Fogleson went looking for a place that was safe, dignified, and personal — somewhere she would be known and cared for as a whole person, not managed as a diagnosis. They visited facility after facility. They never found it. Their mother passed away before the search ended.

Century Assisted Living is what they built afterward — the place they never found, made real for other families. That origin explains every choice here: why we're two houses instead of two hundred beds, why the memory care is Alzheimer's-certified, why nursing staff are here around the clock, and why we'd rather tell a family the honest answer than the convenient one.
