Welcoming the Leyland Community for Seniors
Hebrew SeniorLife has made an impactful move in the realm of senior living by launching the Leyland Community. This new establishment aims to cater to the needs of seniors seeking affordable housing options imbued with quality living and accessibility.
A Partnership that Matters
To achieve this ambitious project, Hebrew SeniorLife partnered with the Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corporation. Together, they're committed to enriching the lives of seniors through innovative housing solutions designed to improve wellness and provide integrated care.
Features of the Leyland Community
Located in Upham's Corner, the Leyland Community comprises 43 apartments specifically tailored for senior residents. These apartments are not just homes; they are designed as service-enriched living spaces, making it easier for residents to access essential services and support.
R3 Initiative Focus
At the heart of this initiative is the Right Care, Right Place, Right Time (R3) strategy. This program merges wellness teams with senior housing to guarantee that the residents receive the care they need when they need it.
Community Support and Development
The project's success is attributed to several collaborations, including contributions from state and local entities such as the Massachusetts Housing Investment Corporation and various financial and construction partners. Such alliances highlight the value of community-oriented projects.
Voices from the Community
During the celebration of the community's opening, resident Lana Andrews expressed her gratefulness. Reflecting on her new home, she noted, "This is a wonderful building. I am so blessed to have a chance to live here at Leyland Community." Her enthusiasm underlines the positive impact this community is having on senior residents.

Hebrew SeniorLife's President and CEO, Louis J. Woolf, proudly remarked on their long-standing history and the significance of establishing the Leyland Community in a place deeply connected to their roots.
