About Laurelmead
Laurelmead is an independent living community on 23 acres of the historic Butler Hospital campus, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in the 1880s. Founded in 1994, it operates as a resident-owned cooperative rather than a national chain or traditional life-care community. Residents are shareholders who participate in policy committees and elect the board of directors, giving them direct influence over community management and operations.
The cooperative model means residents have financial stakes in decisions that affect their living environment. The community is located in Providence with access to regional cultural institutions and amenities across New England. Residents come from across the country, including Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, California, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Texas, New York, New Jersey, and Florida.
Programming includes performances, films, educational offerings, and organized trips.
It offers sunrise senior living, brookdale senior living, the arbor company, atria senior living, holiday retirement, the waterford, heritage woods, the terraces at san joaquin gardens, silverado senior living, and the springs living. Residents have access to 20 listed amenities and services spanning business center, community lounge, fitness center, on-site maintenance, outdoor spaces, pet-friendly areas, and swimming pool. Across 3 resident and family reviews, it holds an average rating of 3.7 out of 5.
