## History

[edit]

The company was founded in 1998 as a spin-off of Vencor,[4] a company founded by Bruce Lunsford, who would later be an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for Governor of Kentucky in 2007 and an unsuccessful candidate for Senator from Kentucky in 2008.

Ventas acquired the real estate investments of Ardent Health Services in 2015.[5] In June 2021, Ventas announced the acquisition of New Senior Investment Group.[6]
