About The Alden Network
The Alden Network originated when Floyd A. Schlossberg, initially a construction engineer, founded Alden Bennett Construction Co. in 1961. In 1971, he opened the first Alden skilled-nursing facility, Alden Lakeland, in Chicago’s Uptown area.
Over time, it has expanded to operate more than 40 sites throughout the Chicagoland area, Rockford, and southern Wisconsin, offering a continuum of care—ranging from short-term orthopedic recovery and post-acute care to assisted living, skilled nursing, memory-impaired care, rehabilitation for young adults, and independent retirement communities.
It is a values-driven, apparently privately held, for-profit organization; CMS chain-level data indicate that of its 27 affiliated facilities, 24 are owned by for-profit corporations and 3 by for-profit limited liability companies.
The Alden Network serves facilities in Illinois and Wisconsin, with affiliated facilities numbering 27 as per CMS data.
The group encompasses skilled-nursing, short-term rehab, memory care, assisted living, post-acute care, and independent living. They have also pursued Joint Commission accreditation and Post-Acute Care (PAC) Certification to strengthen patient transitions and reduce readmission rates.
