    Summary of reviews

    Reviews describe a distinctive, home-like setting made up of cottages with private resident bedrooms and bathrooms, open kitchens, and shared dining and living spaces. Several visitors praised the attractive, spacious surroundings and said the cottages felt less institutional than a traditional nursing home. Comments about cleanliness are mixed: some visitors described well-kept spaces, while one reported significant odor concerns.

    Accounts of care quality vary substantially. Positive comments describe attentive nurses, close monitoring of residents’ health, and staff who are kind and courteous. Other family accounts raise concerns about transfer assistance, overnight responsiveness, supervision, and clinical follow-up after injuries. One family described concerns during a relative’s hip-surgery rehabilitation, including an injury during assisted mobility, questions about subsequent assessment and observation, and uncertainty about when the resident was found; the resident later died. These are serious family-reported concerns and are not independently verified in the reviews. A separate account also questioned the clinical response to a resident’s fall and pain.

    Dining and activities are recurring strengths in the favorable reviews. Residents and visitors praised home-style cooking, and the open kitchen arrangement allows family members to join meals or help prepare familiar foods. Reviewers also mentioned social gatherings across cottages, including music, shared food, and movie events. Staff were described as welcoming and proud of the Green House approach, and some families valued regular calls and meetings with the care team.

    Management and admission communication receive less consistent attention. One reviewer described difficulty determining whether a particular location could meet a prospective resident’s care needs and noted that capabilities may differ among Green House sites. That account refers to more than one location, so it does not clearly establish a concern specific to Southern Hills. Overall, the reviews present a strong contrast between positive descriptions of the residential model and staff engagement and serious concerns from families about reliable hands-on care, supervision, and clinical response.

    About The Green House Cottages of Southern Hills

    The Green House Cottages of Southern Hills is a skilled nursing facility that follows the Green House® model, so you'll find seven small cottages instead of one big building, each with twelve private bedrooms, their own bathrooms with walk-in showers and handrails, and a care team that stays with the same residents to help keep things familiar and comfortable, aiming for dignity and choice above all else. Each cottage looks and feels like a real home, with a full kitchen, a big dining table, cozy living rooms, comfortable furniture for visitors, a covered patio, and a fenced yard, plus there's plenty of room for family to visit and for residents to relax in common areas, the library, or outside on walking paths and gardens. Nurses and staff provide care twenty-four hours a day, helping with bathing, dressing, medication, transfers, non-ambulatory care, and personal care plans, and there are safety features like locked medicine cabinets, climate-controlled rooms, and an emergency alert system. Every room comes with Wi-Fi, cable TV, air conditioning, and good storage space, plus hospital-grade adjustable beds for comfort.

    There's a focus on high-level medical care with licensed nurses and therapists always available, so residents can get wound care, physical, speech, or occupational therapy, post-surgical recovery, neuro-rehab, hospice, and respite care, and there's access to medical services like mobile X-ray, labs, and medical transportation. The staff helps with rehab after injury or surgery, and there's support for both short-term recovery and long-term elder care, with plans made around each person's needs and preferences, and they accept both Medicare and Medicaid. For meals, residents can choose how and with whom they want to eat in their cottage's family-style dining area, with food prepared by chefs and nutritionists, and special diets available. In addition to help with housekeeping, laundry, and concierge services, the staff also arranges transportation for activities or appointments and offers family support services.

    Daily life includes lots of activities, like arts and crafts, music therapy, brain games, gardening, pet visits, intergenerational programs, movie nights, cooking and baking, religious or spiritual support near Bethel No. 1 MBC, fitness rooms, reading areas, and organized social events, as well as beauty and barber services, and community-sponsored celebrations. The setting tries to avoid feeling like a typical nursing home and instead gives each elder privacy, community, and a sense of home, with small cottage living, friendly and familiar staff, and a careful focus on safety, health, and everyday choices.
