Description

Eddy Village Green is the first-of-its-kind community in the greater Capital Region and New York State to replicate The Green House model. The Green House is a concept that transforms traditional skilled nursing care for seniors and offers an innovative new approach that eliminates the conventional, institutional feel of traditional nursing facilities. EVG features 16 ranch-style houses, each accommodating 12 elders.

Team members who care for the elders are certified nursing assistants (CNAs) referred to as “shahbazim”. They receive special training to nurture, protect and engage in the lives of the elders, much like family members.

We’re located at 200 Village Green Drive (off of Columbia Street). CDTA bus route 182 has a stop in front of our campus.
