Sanford Health breaks ground on Sioux Falls senior community
Sanford Health broke ground Monday on the Good Samaritan Society – Founder’s Crossing senior community in Sioux Falls. The new campus, located on the corner of Veterans Parkway and 57th Street, will expand access to high quality care close to home by fulfilling a growing need for senior services on the east side of Sioux Falls.
“Over the next five years, the population of adults over 65 will grow by nearly 20% in the Sioux Falls area,” said Nathan Schema, president and CEO of the Good Samaritan Society. “More senior housing units are needed to keep up with the growth and ensure seniors have access to care and a community designed specifically for them. We couldn’t be more excited to bring this level of service to Sioux Falls and support the needs of the community.”
The leading-edge campus will offer all health and wellness services under one roof, including independent living apartments and villas; assisted living and memory care services; short-term rehabilitation and long-term care; home-based services; life enrichment programs; and a direct connection to a future Sanford Health clinic and Lewis Drug.
Amenities like walking paths, outdoor and indoor fitness areas, pickleball, golf simulator, large community room, restaurant-style dining and spa will help residents create meaningful connections alongside friends, family and neighbors.
“The convenience for residents at Founder’s Crossing will make the community a destination to live, retire and receive health care,” said Mike Wilde, M.D., chief physician at Sanford Health in Sioux Falls. “When completed, the Sanford Health clinic and Lewis Drug will allow more than 300 residents and 200 employees access to primary care, lab, radiology, pharmacy, retail and groceries by simply walking down the hall.”
Completed in phases, villas will open first starting in spring 2026, followed by independent living apartments, assisted living and memory care assisted living apartments, short-term rehabilitation and long-term care center in 2027-2028, and then the eventual opening of the Sanford Health clinic and Lewis Drug. In total, the senior living community will be home to nearly 500 residents and supported by 200 employees.
