Features:
  • remodeled physical therapy gym
  • remodeled short-term stay dining room
  • ​central family room addition
In order to create an updated and more private recovery environment for short-term stay patients, Covenant Living of Northbrook undertook the delicate task of separating long-term resident living spaces from short-term patient areas.

The short-term stay dining room has been remodeled to reflect a more hospitality-like atmosphere and the physical therapy gym was expanded. Also, to ensure long-term care residents feel “at home,” their dining/activities room were renovated to include more intimate, residential aesthetics, and a new central family room space was created by capturing former office and clean linen rooms and opening them up to the corridor.

Details that make a difference.

   Personal touches like a fireplace, artwork and accessories make the family room feel warm, familiar and comfortable. Accessories such as old yearbooks and coffee table picture books were provided to encourage residents to stroll down memory lane and reminisce over their life experiences.
