SRI Management

A Third-Party Senior Living Operator Built Around the Golden Rule

SRI Management is a privately held senior living management company headquartered in Tallahassee, Florida. Founded in 2000 by Don W. Bishop, the company has grown into one of the more active third-party operators in the Southeast and, increasingly, well beyond it. Rather than owning the real estate it manages, SRI Management partners with community owners and developers to run the day-to-day operations of independent living, assisted living, memory care, active adult, and respite care communities across 17 states.

The company describes its guiding philosophy as a version of the golden rule, built on five core values it calls the five C's: character, compassion, commitment, consistency, and communication. That framing shows up in how SRI Management structures its growth. Rather than acquiring properties outright, the company has built its portfolio primarily through management agreements with owners and developers, and through partnerships with regional operating brands such as Impact Senior Living and Midsouth Senior Management, each of which runs communities under its own local name while relying on SRI Management's corporate systems and support.

Families researching SRI Management on Senior Care Finder will notice that individual communities carry a wide range of names, from Seagrass Village and Sunflower Springs to Creekside, Westhill, The Colonnade, and Harper's Station. That variety reflects the company's operating model: it manages other people's buildings and often keeps the branding the owner or developer already established, rather than converting every community to a single national name.

Senior Living and Care Options

SRI Management's portfolio spans several points on the senior living continuum, though not every community offers every service. Depending on the location, residents may find:

•      Active adult living for independent seniors who want low-maintenance housing and community amenities without personal care services.

•      Independent living for seniors who want private apartments, dining, and social programming without daily hands-on care.

•      Assisted living for residents who need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management.

•      Memory care for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, typically in a secured setting with specialized staffing.

•      Respite care for short-term or temporary stays, often used by families evaluating a permanent move or covering a caregiver's absence.

Because SRI Management operates through management agreements and partner brands rather than a single uniform product, the specific mix of care types, floor plans, and amenities differs from one community to the next. Families should confirm which services a given location actually offers rather than assuming a full continuum is available everywhere.

What Makes SRI Management Different?

A third-party operator, not a landlord

SRI Management has deliberately stayed out of the ownership side of the business. According to a 2025 interview with CEO Don Bishop, the company avoids ownership opportunities so it can concentrate entirely on operations, and it has grown its portfolio almost exclusively through third-party management agreements rather than acquisitions (Senior Housing News). That focus means the company's day-to-day work is running communities well, rather than managing a real estate portfolio, and it is one reason SRI Management works with multiple property owners and developers rather than a single capital partner.

Growth through partner brands

Much of SRI Management's recent expansion has come through partnerships with regional operators that run communities under their own names. Impact Senior Living, an SRI Management affiliated brand, has added communities across Florida and South Carolina, including a 2025 addition in Irmo, South Carolina, and new Florida communities in 2026. Midsouth Senior Management, another SRI Management partner, brought the company into Illinois, Michigan, and Ohio for the first time in 2026. This structure lets each partner brand keep its own identity and local relationships while drawing on SRI Management's corporate systems, training, and support.

A stated values framework carried since founding

SRI Management has operated under the same ownership and the same five core values, character, compassion, commitment, consistency, and communication, since its founding in 2000. Don Bishop remains the company's owner and chief executive more than two decades later, which gives the organization a longer, more consistent leadership tenure than many operators of comparable size.

An independently recognized workplace

SRI Management was named to Florida Trend's 2026 Best Companies to Work For list, ranking sixth among medium-sized employers statewide, marking five consecutive years of recognition in the program (Florida Trend). The ranking is based on an independent evaluation of workplace policies paired with direct employee surveys, and Florida Trend's coverage noted that the company operates communities across the Southeast, including about 20 in Florida alone. Staff retention and satisfaction are relevant to families because turnover and burnout are closely tied to consistency of care.

Signature Programs and Services

SRI Management has rolled out SilverSneakers, a nationally recognized senior fitness program, across its communities, giving residents access to group exercise classes designed for a range of physical abilities. Availability and specific class offerings can vary by community and by partner brand, so families interested in a particular wellness program should confirm what is offered at the location they are considering.

Because SRI Management manages communities under a number of different local and regional brand names, dining, activities, and other resident programming are generally designed and branded at the community or partner-brand level rather than as a single company-wide program. Families should ask about the specific programming at each community rather than assuming it matches what is offered elsewhere in the portfolio.

Life at an SRI Management Community

Because SRI Management's communities operate under a variety of local brand names and were often built or acquired at different times, the day-to-day experience can differ meaningfully from one location to the next. Depending on the community, residents may find:

•      Restaurant-style or chef-prepared dining, with menu variety that depends on the community

•      A calendar of social, wellness, and recreational activities, which may include SilverSneakers fitness classes where available

•      Housekeeping and laundry support, typically included or offered as part of a service package

•      Scheduled transportation for appointments, errands, or outings, availability varies by location

•      Secured memory care neighborhoods at communities that offer that service line

Families evaluating a specific SRI Management community should ask about staffing ratios, move-in costs, contract terms, and how the community handles changes in a resident's care needs over time, since these details are set at the community level and are not standardized company-wide.

What Residents and Families Say

SRI Management does not publish a single portfolio-wide rating, and individual community ratings listed on Senior Care Finder vary widely, from below 4.0 to nearly 5.0, with a handful of newer communities not yet rated. That range is typical for an operator this size and reflects real differences in leadership, staffing, and tenure from one community to the next rather than a single company-wide standard.

In 2025, U.S. News & World Report analyzed resident and family survey responses across a small sample of SRI Management communities as part of its Best Senior Living program, and recognized one of those communities based on satisfaction with caregiving, dining, staff, and management (U.S. News & World Report). That recognition applies to a specific community rather than to SRI Management's portfolio as a whole.

Families considering a specific SRI Management community should read that community's most recent reviews directly rather than relying on a company-wide impression, since experience can vary by leadership team, staffing levels, and time period even within the same portfolio. For example, communities such as Trinity Hills of Knoxville, Anthem Lakes Waterview Senior Living, and Harbison Shores each maintain their own review history on Senior Care Finder.

Leadership

Don W. Bishop is the founder, owner, and chief executive officer of SRI Management. He founded the company in 2000 after working in healthcare consulting following his graduation from Florida State University with a degree in economics, and he has led the company throughout its growth into a multi-state operator.

Todd Filippone serves as President of SRI Management. He joined the company's corporate leadership team and has held roles overseeing operations, finance, and new community development before being named President, and he is frequently the company's public spokesperson for new community announcements and partnerships.
