Services and Amenities

The Green House features care custom-tailored to each resident to ensure the best possible lifestyle. Active participation in all facets of daily living is encouraged. All daily care plus three home cooked meals a day and fresh baking throughout the week is provided by the care staff.

  • Make food available to all elders at all times
  • Invite all present at the time of the meal to share at the table

Practices:

  • Elders and families contribute recipes to the house cookbooks
  • Elders assist in selecting menus
  • Elders involved in cooking as they are able
  • Elders involved in setting the table
  • Include music, table linen, flowers and decorations to enhance environment
  • Staff and others in the house eat with elders
  • Parties, celebrations and laughter encouraged!

Having studied this philosophy of care, I knew what The Green House “should” be; and it was. I will never forget just how much Angela and the Green House team did for my Mom. It were the best alternative to “being at home”. Clara Ellis
