At Green House® Cottages of Homewood, we believe that quality long-term care is about much more than meeting medical needs. It’s about creating a home-like environment where residents feel valued, respected, and in control of their daily lives. This is the essence of person-centered care, a core principle that guides everything we do in our cottages.
Person-centered care begins with seeing each resident as a unique individual with their own history, preferences, and routines. Our staff take the time to learn about residents’ likes, dislikes, hobbies, and daily rhythms. This knowledge allows us to create a care plan that supports independence, comfort, and overall well-being while honoring each person’s individuality.
In our cottages, residents have choices throughout the day—from meal options to activities, social interactions, and personal schedules. This flexibility helps residents maintain a sense of control and autonomy, which is essential for emotional and mental well-being. Whether it’s enjoying a favorite hobby, participating in group activities, or simply relaxing in a familiar space, residents are empowered to live life on their terms.
Our specially trained caregivers, known as Shahbazim, play a key role in person-centered care. They build deep relationships with residents, supporting them not only with daily tasks but also emotionally and socially. This close bond ensures that care is consistent, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s needs.
Person-centered care at Green House® Cottages goes beyond individual attention—it also fosters a strong sense of community. Residents live in small households, allowing for meaningful connections with both staff and fellow residents. This setup encourages engagement, companionship, and a family-like atmosphere that promotes overall happiness and quality of life.
By putting residents at the center of care, we help them maintain dignity, independence, and joy in their daily lives. Person-centered care isn’t just a philosophy—it’s a practical approach that transforms the way residents experience long-term care.
At Green House® Cottages of Homewood, person-centered care means empowering our residents to live full, meaningful lives in a home-like setting where every choice, preference, and need is respected. It’s what makes our cottages a place where people feel truly at home.
