Planning
 
Much of the existing campus will be replaced with new buildings including ten, 10-bed cottages, yielding a total of 100 beds, day program buildings, a medical clinic, and a recreation and therapy building. Using the Green House model as the basis of design, the cottages provide small groups of residents and staff that focus on living communally in a residential environment. Five cottages are designed as skilled nursing units for medically frail clients, two cottages are designed as intermediate care facilities for dual diagnoses clients, and three cottages are designed as skilled nursing facilities for clients with brain injuries, dementia, or psychiatric illness.
