Opus is a completely different model. In most Life Plan communities, assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing are located on the campus so that residents can move to these facilities if they need care. At Opus, we will support residents in accessing quality medical care and bringing care into their apartments through partnerships with home care providers. Another difference is that many Life Plan communities bake in high staffing levels to provide a very high level of service to residents. Opus is focused on residents staying as independent as possible and forming a true community where everyone helps to make things tick, thereby keeping staffing costs a bit lower. We will have a great professional staff to support Opus residents, but not to cater to them like a resort or hotel would. Finally, the biggest difference is in the hearts and minds of residents – Opus residents will need to be givers, seekers. People looking for agency and meaning in their lives and opportunities to continue to contribute and grow. This is the type of community we believe can be successful on so many different levels, not just affordability.
