Erickson Retirement Communities is the nation's
leading builder and manager of moderately priced continuing care
retirement communities.
Erickson has built an innovative network
of 21 communities that combine a maintenance-free active lifestyle
with an ever-expanding host of amenities, social activities,
and wellness and medical centers, proven to improve both physical
and mental health.
There are numerous services available to
people who live in Erickson communities, including transportation,
grounds maintenance, and housekeeping. On-site amenities include
restaurants, stores, Fitness Center with full-time trainers,
and a Medical Center staffed by board-certified primary care
physicians who specialize in geriatrics and practice only at
Erickson campuses.
Erickson campuses are uniquely self-sufficient,
providing their own security and emergency response service.
They also provide their own road repair, snow removal, and other
services typically funded by the local government.
The Erickson enterprise also encompasses
the Retirement Living TV network; NorthBay environmental education
center; the Erickson Health system; Erickson Advantage health
plan; Renaissance Gardens assisted living, long-term nursing
care, and short-term rehabilitation residences; The Erickson
School at University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC); The
Erickson Foundation; and Point Lookout conference center.
Erickson was named one of the Best Companies
to Work For in America by Fortune magazine.
History
In 1983 John Erickson rejected the traditional
concept of retirement living and struck out on his own to create
an exciting lifestyle for people age 62 or better. To that end,
he turned an abandoned college campus in Maryland into a vibrant,
bustling community named Charlestown. It quickly became the most
popular campus-style community option in America.
Erickson offered residents a 100% refundable
deposit guarantee which was a first in the business.
