Jane Baker Small House... OTTERBEIN SMALL HOUSE AT NORTH Otterbein
North Shore is on the verge of a new adventure with the completion
of the first Otterbein Small House in Ohio. "Our
journey has just begun," said Jill Hreben, Senior Vice President
of Strategic Management and Change.
The journey to which Hreben refers is Otterbein Retirement Living Communities' mission to liberate elders and those who serve them from the mindsets of institutional care. The Otterbein Small House is a cornerstone effort in this journey. Each home is carefully designed to balance a sense of community, and warmth of family with a respect for each individual's privacy. "Privacy is always within reach for residents," Hreben stated. "There are ten private rooms and private baths within the home and all are situated around an inviting great room and large eat-in kitchen. Meals are celebrated with family style dining, and family and friends encouraged to join in. In other words, an Otterbein Small House is about being home." There are essentially four items that will separate an Otterbein
Small House from a traditional nursing care mindset: choice,
human relationships, privacy and a comfortable physical environment
in which to pursue these. "
We are excited about what this model means for our elders," Hreben
expressed. "The heart of an Otterbein Small House is
the wants and need of its residents."
