Welcome to the Leonard Florence Center for Living

 

The First of Its Kind... The Future Is Now

Nation’s First ALS Residence Meets Nation’s First Green House® MS Residence

Two of the ten residences within the Leonard Florence Center for Living are dedicated to individuals living with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and MS (multiple sclerosis).

ALS and MS residents will have support from a highly trained team of healthcare professionals and access to assistive equipment, ventilator support, and personalized mobile command centers to help them navigate throughout the campus. The technology in these residences is the most innovative in the nation, developed in collaboration with national consultants Promixis and Inventive Technologies.

Imagine a nursing home where residents live in houses that reflect their respective interests, values and needs. A place where elders can receive individualized skilled nursing care and support with daily activities, but without this assistance becoming the focus of their existence.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


The Leonard Florence Center for Living brings that vision to life by becoming America’s first Green House® community to provide skilled nursing care in an urban setting.

Composed of ten homes, each containing ten private bedrooms and baths, the Leonard Florence Center for Living serves a total of 100 residents within a six-story condominium-style complex situated on the Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson Campus on Admiral’s Hill in Chelsea, Massachusetts.

Our residents at Leonard Florence include the elderly, those requiring short-term rehabilitation as well as those living with disabling medical conditions such as ALS and multiple sclerosis.

With a dedicated staff, an innovative environment, and the latest technological advances in elder and specialized care, we at the Leonard Florence Center for Living stand to deliver on our ultimate mission: allowing residents to live life to the fullest.
