KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tutera Senior Living & Health Care, one of the nation’s leading senior care providers, has acquired Ridgeland Senior Living, an upscale community in Matteson, Illinois, outside of Chicago. The community, built in 2021 for $21 million, formerly operated under the name Alexi Senior Living for eight months until it closed in 2022. Tutera is making improvements and will reopen the community in early spring.
