Many facilities are designed for the benefit of the Caregiver as opposed to the patient. Our home has been carefully designed for our residents suffering from Cognitive Impairment. While many institutional living facilities choose to sedate residents and place them in front of a loud television, offer minimal care and have high staff turnover. We strive to engage residents with fulfilling activities that keep their minds active, an environment that encourages independence and staff that are passionate about providing care to Senior Citizens with Cognitive Impairment.
Our uniquely designed single-story structure enables our residents in way finding. This important design element reduces agitation and creates a healthy environment for residents. Our home features a single entry/exit point and features that include:
- A Veranda
- Raised Beds
- Chicken Coup
- Multiple Activity Area
- A Barn
- Farm Pets
- A Greenhouse For Gardening
Modeled from successful farm care facilities in Europe, Green Care Farms has a maximum of 15 residents so the specially-chosen staff can focus on care.
The thoughtful, efficient design utilizes eco-friendly green technologies wherever possible such as solar, rain water harvesting, efficient HVAC systems, etc. to ensure a positive impact on the environment.
Green Care Farms will be licensed as an Assisted Living Facility (ALF) with assistance with Activities of Daily such as:
- Bathing
- Eating
- Dressing
- Mobility
And Much More………
Our caregivers will encourage independence, individuality and choice. Care is provided with compassion and dignity; we also respect each resident’s right to privacy.
