Habitat Health opens senior citizen health facility

Wave Staff Report

COMPTON — Senior citizens are receiving quality health care from Habitat Health, the city’s first Class-A medical facility, developed by leading impact investing firm Turner Impact Capital.

The new Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE) center provides comprehensive primary care for low-income patients aged 55 and older, as well as access to specialists and a range of medical and social services to help seniors continue living independently at home. The 18,000-square-foot facility was designed, financed and built by Turner Impact Capital’s Turner Healthcare Facilities Funds.

The center marks a milestone in increasing access to high-quality health care in one of Greater L.A.’s most medically underserved communities. The building at 1005 E. Rosecrans Ave. includes seven exam rooms, a rehabilitation and occupational therapy facility, day rooms to facilitate arts and crafts and other patient activities, a personal care area, and an outdoor garden and walking path, among other features.

The Turner Healthcare Facilities Funds promote the success of high-performing health care providers by serving as a full-service developer, capital provider and strategic business partner. The fund has delivered, or is developing, 49 health care facilities nationwide with a development cost of more than $650 million for leading health care providers in communities with underserved patient populations. The customized, state-of-the-art facilities have been demonstrated to improve health outcomes while reducing health care disparities, lowering costs and enhancing patient satisfaction.

“We are proud to expand our partnership with Habitat Health to deliver an innovative, first-rate community health care solution in South Los Angeles that advances our mission of improving access to excellent care regardless of background or zip code,” said Bobby Turner, CEO of Turner Impact Capital. “Habitat Health’s beautiful new PACE center sets a standard that will enhance the quality of life for seniors and benefit the entire community.”

Turner Healthcare Facilities Funds is among the most active PACE center developers in the country, having developed or committed to develop 15 PACE facilities and providing more than $250 million in capital for projects with six respected health care providers. The facilities will serve some 83,000 patients at stabilization — approximately 12% of total PACE enrollees in the United States. The fund’s development pipeline includes additional PACE centers, as well as facilities for primary care, outpatient community health and behavioral health services.

The center is Habitat Health’s first health center in greater Los Angeles since its founding in 2023 with backing from Kaiser Permanente. Its first facility, also developed by Turner Healthcare Facilities Funds, opened in Sacramento in 2025.

“This center expands our ability to serve older adults across South Los Angeles with care that’s easier to access and coordinated around their daily lives,” said Matthew Bennett, CEO of Habitat Health. “We value our collaboration with Turner Impact Capital in bringing this model to more communities.

“By providing clinical care, daily support, and community in one place, we help people remain in their homes and stay connected to what matters most.”
