Meet The Team
Bloom at Belfair, an Independent Living, Independent Living Plus and Memory Care community in Bluffton, South Carolina, is owned and operated by a wonderful, caring family that has been in the senior care business since 1965. The entire Belfair program is centered around more than offering safe, security, care and service. While those elements are an important part of Bloom's operation, they're not nearly enough -- for that reason, Bloom incorporates a variety of different intangibles into its platform from the people we hire; to the education we teach; and to the mission we subscribe to in order to ensure our seniors are living, discovering their best selves and simply put: blooming. It all comes down to our people, family feel and warm environment; and therefore, we invite you to meet the leadership team virtually below and then visit us in person to see what Bloom is all about. Our residents and teams have a special bond, and our days are filled with laughter, love, fun and great programming! 

It's for that reason we have high resident / family satisfaction and low associate turnover. We're a stable, committed community here to serve you. Belfair continues to roll out new programs, so stay tuned for more exciting announcements out of this community.
You Can Feel The Culture
Apple. Google. Zappos. They’re some of the world’s most successful companies, and they’re recognized and revered worldwide. But a brand is much more than just a logo or a window dressing. Each also has a strong value proposition; one that is engrained in its unique culture and inspires everything from day-to-day interactions to long-term growth and goals. We have equally defined values and a strong, nurturing culture here at Bloom. In fact, as a family-oriented company, we’ve made company culture our number one priority because we believe if the culture is right, then everything else — including delivering great customer service and building an enduring brand — will fall into place.
Meet Our Chief Inspiration Officers, Richard & Ruth Tischler
Richard earned his accounting degree in 1940 and started an accounting practice shortly thereafter. He later entered the field of healthcare. With Ruth’s support, Richard built a chain of Nursing Homes and Mental Health facilities. When Ruth became sick at 89 years old, the close-knit family, including Richard, the Tischlers’ children and their grandchildren, began searching for the perfect senior living residence. As her health condition progressed, she required services ranging from Independent to Assisted Living to Memory Care. Inspired by this personal experience and building upon our family’s values, principles and generations of experience, Bloom was formed to shift the family’s focus to the same lifestyle options that Ruth required. The Tischlers were married for almost 70 years before Ruth passed away from Alzheimer’s disease in 2012, and Richard was still involved in daily operations until he passed away in 2016 at the age of 101. The Tischlers' story is engrained in Bloom's operation!
