Good for the Planet. Good for Our Stakeholders.

We believe that operating efficiently, responsibly and with our stakeholders’ best interests in mind is fundamental to our long-term success. The strategic investments we’ve made in our properties—and those we’ve supported our operators in making—are designed to improve the lives of residents, foster healthier working environments for caregivers and staff and strengthen the resilience and performance of our portfolio.
Sustainability Report
Read our latest Sustainability Report to see how we’re embedding sustainability into our business strategy through thoughtful investments, collaborative relationships and a shared commitment to innovation and quality. Our approach is rooted in environmental stewardship, impact and disciplined execution—all aimed at supporting sustained value for our stakeholders.
Environmental
As a socially and environmentally responsible company, Sabra believes that reducing our environmental footprint is in our best interest as well as that of our operators and the world at large. Our approach to environmental stewardship is intrinsically tied to operating responsibly, thoughtfully and with our stakeholders’ best interests in mind. Our vision is to continuously expand on opportunities and best practices that create a positive environmental impact while enhancing our portfolio’s value and operating performance.
Social
While research shows that a diverse workforce consistently outperforms less diverse ones, women and minorities are still underrepresented in the real estate sector. Our Board and management continually seek to ensure that we maintain a diverse talent base and inclusive culture, not because we are driven by quotas on diversity, but because we fundamentally believe that diverse companies demonstrate superior performance.
In addition to fostering employee engagement, we promote work-life balance for our employees and invest in them through high-quality benefits and various health and wellness initiatives, including creating a healthy work environment in our offices.
As of December 31, 2024, women comprised 56 percent of our workforce and 64 percent of our management-level and leadership roles.
Governance
As a company, we are committed to corporate governance best practices that promote the long-term interests of our shareholders and strengthen Board and management accountability. As a fiduciary for our shareholders, our Board is focused on cultivating exemplary corporate governance through a commitment to ethics, integrity and corporate responsibility to ensure that Sabra’s corporate strategy aligns with our values, our culture and how we run our business. To support our endeavors, the Board solicits and values direct shareholder feedback through our shareholder outreach program.
Our Strategy in Action
Going the Extra Green Mile
At Gardens of Wakefield, Sabra collaborated with Blue Sky E3 Partners and Carrier engineers to design a custom, energy-efficient solution for the community’s heating and cooling system. By replacing outdated equipment, the project achieved a combined 44 percent improvement in unit efficiency. Building on that success, Sabra completed similar HVAC retrofits at two additional Texas communities, leveraging utility incentives to upgrade systems and enhance performance. These efforts improved unit efficiency by 30 percent, resident comfort, staff working conditions and overall grid resilience.
Improving the Quality of Care
We actively support our operators in exploring and adopting healthtech and proptech solutions that improve care delivery, enhance staff workflows and promote resident well-being. With the help of third-party expertise, we evaluate emerging technologies and help curate, pilot and scale those that we believe have the potential to make a meaningful difference.
DS smart is a solution from Direct Supply that empowers caregivers to capture vital signs and other critical information. It enables seamless connections between clinical diagnostic equipment and the EMR. With DS smart, caregivers can save time, improve accuracy, and deliver better, more informed care to their patients while streamlining the process and improving efficiency in the healthcare environment. For example, caregivers at one Cadia Rehab skilled nursing center that implemented the technology experienced 98 percent accuracy and 99 percent utilization rates, saving about 300 hours of team member time quarter over quarter since implementation. Plus, With the availability of Chronic Care Management codes, physicians can now receive reimbursements for the use of this technology.
Kami Care is a sophisticated and automated AI fall detection technology that helps caregivers identify hazards in unwitnessed falls, detect unintentional self-lowering as a precursor to future falls, and identifies physical limitations that require care plan adjustments. This allows caregivers to be more informed, proactive and better equipped to respond faster and prevent these high-risk injuries. For example, at Ignite Medical Resorts, the Bed Exit feature that alerts caregivers when patients are exiting bed has resulted in a reduction in falls from 28 percent to approximately 8 percent and has sustained these levels over a half-year period.
Engaging With Innovation
Sabra is a proud Alliance Member of the Well Living Lab (WLL), founded as a Delos and Mayo Clinic collaboration, and active participant in the Delos Wellness Innovation in Senior Environments (WISE) initiative to accelerate scientific research on the impact of indoor environments on the health and well-being of older adults.
“Meaningful change happens when industry leaders lend their expertise to addressing the most urgent challenges. Through the WISE initiative and research with the Well Living Lab, Sabra has committed to advancing health, wellness and safety in the sector through a first-of-its-kind scientific research agenda to help lead industry transformation.”
