Ccrc Administrator Jobs (NOW HIRING)

BACKGROUND

2Life Communities’ newest and highly innovative project, Opus Newton, is located in Newton, Massachusetts. Building on 2Life’s core service model and best practices, Opus Newton provides a unique middle-income housing option for adults aged 62+ to “age in community”. Opus Newton is designed to fill the market gap between those eligible for 2Life’s subsidized housing options and those who can afford high-end market options.

Opus Newton is 2Life Communities’ first middle-income Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), and it is physically connected to Coleman House (one of 2Life’s affordable housing communities for seniors) by a terraced community center which includes a cafe, cultural arts and learning spaces, fitness areas, patios, and gardens. Opus Newton and Coleman House together comprise what we call the “Nahanton Campus”. Walking trails connect residents of Opus Newton and Coleman House to the JCC, Newton Community Farm, and Newton’s Nahanton Park.

“Aging in community” means that residents can live full lives of engagement and purpose in a dynamic, supportive environment. In addition, 2Life’s unique Opus model is built upon 3 key elements of effective care for seniors: bringing care to the resident instead of moving the resident to the care; providing care coordination by dedicated “Care Navigators”, and partnering with providers for healthcare and homecare services, including a medical practice for on-site primary care.

The creative operating model also includes a robust resident volunteer requirement of 10 hours per month, which supports programming and operational functions and promotes social engagement and a sense of community among residents.
