The Green House Cottages of Southern Hills is a skilled nursing facility that follows the Green House® model, so you'll find seven small cottages instead of one big building, each with twelve private bedrooms, their own bathrooms with walk-in showers and handrails, and a care team that stays with the same residents to help keep things familiar and comfortable, aiming for dignity and choice above all else. Each cottage looks and feels like a real home, with a full kitchen, a big dining table, cozy living rooms, comfortable furniture for visitors, a covered patio, and a fenced yard, plus there's plenty of room for family to visit and for residents to relax in common areas, the library, or outside on walking paths and gardens. Nurses and staff provide care twenty-four hours a day, helping with bathing, dressing, medication, transfers, non-ambulatory care, and personal care plans, and there are safety features like locked medicine cabinets, climate-controlled rooms, and an emergency alert system. Every room comes with Wi-Fi, cable TV, air conditioning, and good storage space, plus hospital-grade adjustable beds for comfort.
There's a focus on high-level medical care with licensed nurses and therapists always available, so residents can get wound care, physical, speech, or occupational therapy, post-surgical recovery, neuro-rehab, hospice, and respite care, and there's access to medical services like mobile X-ray, labs, and medical transportation. The staff helps with rehab after injury or surgery, and there's support for both short-term recovery and long-term elder care, with plans made around each person's needs and preferences, and they accept both Medicare and Medicaid. For meals, residents can choose how and with whom they want to eat in their cottage's family-style dining area, with food prepared by chefs and nutritionists, and special diets available. In addition to help with housekeeping, laundry, and concierge services, the staff also arranges transportation for activities or appointments and offers family support services.
Daily life includes lots of activities, like arts and crafts, music therapy, brain games, gardening, pet visits, intergenerational programs, movie nights, cooking and baking, religious or spiritual support near Bethel No. 1 MBC, fitness rooms, reading areas, and organized social events, as well as beauty and barber services, and community-sponsored celebrations. The setting tries to avoid feeling like a typical nursing home and instead gives each elder privacy, community, and a sense of home, with small cottage living, friendly and familiar staff, and a careful focus on safety, health, and everyday choices.
