We understand how to create the best experience for people living in a Revera home.

Vaccines are a proven, safe and powerful weapon in our battle against COVID-19. Now that vaccines are widely available and recognizing that many of our staff are already vaccinated, vaccination will be a condition of employment for new hires, except when impossible due to legitimate, established exceptions.

This is one more important step to protect both our residents and staff as we continue to battle this deadly virus.
