PARK HOMES

Hillsboro, KS

Knowing that the traditional approach to skilled nursing was failing, Park Homes embarked on the construction of small stand-alone SNF houses for their residents and converting the existing SNF structure to assisted living and resident amenities. The plan provided two distinct and secure courtyards for residents and visitors. One passive highly landscaped with a kitchen garden and one active where residents and grandchildren could play.

The 3- and 4-story building contained six household 10 residents each along with household dining, kitchen and living rooms.

GOUVERNEUR HEALTHCARE SERVICES

New York, NY

Originally constructed in the 1960's, this ambulatory care center operated by the NYC Health+Hospital Corporation Crepidoma Consulting provided layout and design services for the needed modernization of their senior skilled nursing care. Located on a tight site, the upper levels of the existing building were refurbished into four households of 10 residents each per floor and included a small addition to comply with the resident yield necessary and add to the architectural façade. The existing column spacing required a unique approach to resident room design. Each household had its own living room, dining room and household kitchen and there was a central social area where residents from all households could gather.
