Abstract | A not-for-profit geriatric complex offers comprehensive services and care ranging from independent living, with limited supportive services, in apartment units, to an intermediate level of care in a health-related facility, to skilled nursing and intensive care in an accredited long-term care facility. Thus, the elderly residents and patients are provided with ready access to progressive patient care in either direction whenever needed. The complex includes newly constructed and recycled apartment and medical care buildings. |
