CarDon & Associates, a Bloomington, Ind.-based company that owns, operates or manages 20 senior living communities throughout Indiana, is proud to announce Zach Cattell as the organization’s new President and CEO.
Prior to joining CarDon as Chief Strategy & Legal Officer in 2022, Cattell was deeply involved in Hoosier health care on a statewide level, leading government relations efforts for the Indiana State Medical Association, the Indiana Academy of Family Physicians and the Indiana State Department of Health, as well as time in private legal practice focusing on health care matters. Immediately before starting at CarDon, he served as the President of the Indiana Health Care Association.
“I’ve been a student of Medicare and Medicaid for a while now — the two most critical health care programs for our seniors,” Cattell said. “In our service to seniors, I am onboard with providing the value-driven and resident-centric care that our residents deserve and our governments partner with us in creating. CarDon has a lot to offer our communities and health care continuum partners as we navigate opportunities to provide high-quality care to seniors.”
CarDon Board of Directors Chairperson Mary Horn added, “We are excited for Zach to leverage his health care policy and leadership experience to take CarDon in bold directions. We greatly admire his passion and ambition.”
“Service in senior living and long term care is a passion, a calling,” Cattell explained. “Continuing to serve those that are among the most vulnerable in our society and support their families who are looking for a trusted provider of care, is extremely rewarding. I’m honored to be part of a top-notch team of professionals that is laser-focused on providing excellent medical care and personal companionship to senior Hoosiers.”
CarDon & Associates is a family-centered organization with an approach to senior living that focuses on making a positive difference in the lives of the people served — from creating inviting, beautiful communities to providing compassionate, innovative and professional health care services.
With 20 communities owned, operated or managed in Indiana and more than 45 years of senior living experience, CarDon & Associates provides residents with the best senior living options and personalized care.
