(August 25, 2025) Newark, DE – Juniper Communities and Juniper Village at Newark are transforming senior living with Juniper’s nationally recognized Connect4Life program, a model that combines advanced technology with compassionate, personal care to deliver better health outcomes for older adults. Independent third-party research has shown that Juniper residents experience 50% fewer hospital readmissions compared to those living at home or in traditional senior living communities, thanks to the Connect4Life program.

At the heart of Connect4Life is a philosophy Juniper describes as “high-tech with high touch.” Residents benefit from the support of dedicated medical concierges who function as a central point of contact, managing communication between residents, family members, healthcare providers, and the Juniper team. This personalized support ensures appointments are scheduled, transportation is arranged, and all aspects of care are seamlessly managed.

What truly sets Connect4Life apart is its unique model of fully integrated care. Within each Juniper community, residents have access to a broad range of healthcare services right on site, including primary care, therapy, pharmacy, lab services, and more. These services are coordinated through a single electronic health record system, which allows every provider to see a complete and up-to-date view of a resident’s medical history. This kind of access not only makes care safer and more efficient, but it gives families a profound sense of relief.

For Melissa C., whose mother experienced a stroke before moving to Juniper, Connect4Life was transformative. “After my mom had a stroke, I was overwhelmed trying to manager her care,” she shared. “Discovering Juniper Village and their Connect4Life program has been life changing. Knowing Juniper has it all under control has given us such peace of mind. Mom made a full recovery and has not had to return to the hospital, which is just incredible. Now, instead of being a caregiver, we can simply enjoy our time together. For that, I am eternally grateful to Juniper and the entire team.”

Connect4Life is available at all Juniper senior living communities across the country, offering residents and their families a more coordinated, compassionate, and effective approach to managing health and wellness.
