At Green House® Cottages of Wentworth Place, life isn’t just about care—it’s about community. One of the biggest benefits of the Green House® model is its small-home design, which creates a comfortable, intimate environment where residents can form meaningful friendships and build lasting connections.
Unlike traditional long-term care facilities, each Green House® Cottage is intentionally small, with only a handful of residents living together. This smaller scale allows residents to interact frequently with one another and develop deeper relationships. Shared spaces like dining areas, living rooms, and outdoor areas encourage conversation, collaboration, and social engagement.
In a small-home setting, friendships grow naturally through everyday routines. Residents share meals, participate in group activities, and enjoy hobbies together. Even simple moments, like morning coffee or afternoon walks, provide opportunities for residents to bond and support one another. These daily interactions help residents feel a sense of belonging and community.
Green House® Cottages of Wentworth Place offers a variety of activities designed to foster engagement and connection. From arts and crafts to game nights, music sessions, and gardening, residents have multiple opportunities to participate together and create shared memories. These experiences encourage teamwork, laughter, and friendship.
Friendships within a small-home environment have a positive impact on emotional and mental well-being. Residents who form close bonds report feeling happier, more confident, and more motivated to participate in daily life. Social connections help reduce feelings of isolation, foster a sense of purpose, and make life in long-term care feel more like home.
Friendships aren’t just among residents—strong, caring relationships with staff also enhance the sense of community. Caregivers get to know each resident personally, creating trust and comfort that support both friendships and overall well-being.
At Green House® Cottages of Wentworth Place, small-home living isn’t just a design choice—it’s a way to encourage connection, community, and lasting friendships. By fostering opportunities for shared experiences and social engagement, residents enjoy a rich, vibrant daily life that feels truly like home.
