Benchmark Assisted Living Assumes Operation of 4 New Communities

Benchmark Assisted living has assumed operation of four additional properties in the Boston area. Communities in Newton, Brighton and North Andover formerly operated by Genesis ElderCare are new members of the Benchmark family. Benchmark, the Northeast's largest privately held senior living provider, now manages 35 communities, 19 of which are in its home state of Massachusetts.

Three of the four communities will receive new names. Cabot Park Village at 280 Newtonville Ave. in Newton will remain Cabot Park Village. The Heritage at Vernon Court at 430 Centre St. in Newton will become Evans Park at Newton Corner. Heritage at Cleveland Circle at 50 Sutherland Road in Brighton will become Chestnut Park at Cleveland Circle. The former Heritage at North Andover at 700 Chickering Road in North Andover will be renamed Ashland Farm at North Andover.

Cabot Park Village at Newton will provide 98 units for independent living services. Evans Park at Newton Corner will offer 115 assisted living units. Chestnut Park at Cleveland I Circle, which features a kosher lifestyle, will offer 90 assisted living units. Ashland Farm at North Andover will provide 77 units for assisted living services and 21 units for Alzheimer's/dementia care. Each community will be refurbished.
