Nursing Support for Memory Care

The design for each Green House is warm, smart and green – warm because of the warm and caring relationships in the home; smart because of the technology and design that support evidence-based care; and green because the homes are a place where people live, grow and thrive.

Our top priority is for you and your loved one to feel safe and cared for at our Green Houses. The Green House® model of care is tailored to each Elder and centers on our team of Shahbazim (plural for Shahbaz). Each Shahbazim is a Certified Nursing Assistant with additional training in the Best Life Certification, which provides evidence-based guidance on effectively caring for people affected by Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. The Shahbazim have deep, meaningful connections with each of our Elders.

Shahbaz provide a wide range of assistance including personal care, daily activities, medication management, laundry, light housekeeping and socialization for our Elders. Elders are also encouraged to participate with the Shahbaz in all activities throughout the day. Formal nursing care is available on the Bartram Campus (Bartram Lakes, Bartram Crossing, The Green House® Residences) 24 hours a day.
