STATE COLLEGE — Juniper Communities recently announced that Juniper Village at Brookline Wellspring Memory Care has been recognized as one of the “Best Memory Care” personal care communities of 2023-2024 by U.S. News & World Report.
To be considered, each personal care community had to receive a certain amount of positive survey responses from both residents and their families on topics such as nursing, dining and cleanliness.
“This award reflects the collective dedication of our associates, residents, family members and partners. It is this community of people who make Juniper Village Wellspring Memory Care at Brookline a special place,” said Katie Mannino, executive director, Juniper Village at Brookline Wellspring Memory Care. “I am most proud of our team members who strive for excellence every day. They are committed to delivering on our mission to nurture the spirit of life — in each moment, with each individual. I am so proud of the community we have created together.”
In its second year of evaluating the Best of Senior Living, U.S. News & World Report obtained ratings after assessing 4,000 senior personal care communities that specialized in these areas of expertise: independent living, assisted living, memory care and continuing care retirement.
“U.S. News provides in-depth information on multiple community types to help potential residents and their families find, in consultation with their doctors as needed, the best place to help meet their needs,” said Zach Adams, senior health data engineer at U.S. News. “Communities that are highly rated excel in making residents feel safe, well cared for and highly satisfied by the services provided.”
Juniper Communities is recognized by the senior living industry as a major industry influencer for its programming, use of technology, being an early adopter of electronic health records, and evidence-based integrated model of care. Juniper’s high tech/high touch approach to delivering services involves using technology to improve delivery and services and connecting that with an onsite medical/lifestyle concierge to ensure a human connection.
