The home’s spacious design is wheelchair accessible and offers four private patient bedrooms, as well as private patios, a living room, family room, gathering room and kitchen, as well as a nurses’ station. It also has a backyard retreat that provides patients with an ideal outdoor environment for simple family gatherings or meditative time alone.
