The St. John’s Green House Homes came to the Rochester, New York area in 2012 as the first green house-style nursing homes in America located outside of a health care campus. For the 10-year anniversary of their opening, the Green House Project featured a number of the principal figures in the opening of the houses on their podcast, “Elevate Eldercare.”
