There is a nursing home in Columbus, Ohio called Westminster-Thurber Community that is using a program called the Eden Alternative. It is a philosophy of living that fosters a home environment in long-term care and assisted living facilities. You might try to Google the Eden Alternative. I'm sure there are lots of resources on-line. The number for the facility is: 614-228-8888.
