Company History
Hebrew SeniorLife, founded in 1903, is a nonprofit, non-sectarian organization that provides housing and health care for seniors, research into aging, and education for geriatric care providers.
With 2,600 employees aligned around a common mission, goals and cultural beliefs, we’re one of the largest employers in Massachusetts.
We care for more than 3,000 seniors each day at our nine Boston area campuses and communities. We reach untold more seniors, families, caregivers and senior care professionals around the U.S. and the world through our research and teaching mission.
The Hinda and Arthur Marcus Institute for Aging Research challenges assumptions about aging and replaces them with new, evidence-based realities founded on the results of rigorous scientific enquiry.
Each year, we train more than 700 students, interns, residents and fellows in multiple geriatric disciplines to prepare them to be the clinicians, leaders, researchers and policy-makers of tomorrow.
