Eddy Village Green, formerly Eddy-Ford Nursing Home, is a skilled nursing care center located at The Eddy's Cohoes campus. Adjacent to Marjorie Doyle Rockwell Center, the residence is surrounded by scenic grounds and courtyards for residents. Originally the Mary and Alice Ford Nursing Home, it has been a member of the Cohoes community since 1975, and a proud affiliate of The Eddy network of services since 1988.

A new Eddy Village Green is currently under construction on the Cohoes campus. Modeled after THE GREEN HOUSE®, a concept that transforms traditional skilled nursing home care for seniors, this new community offers an innovative new approach to nursing home care ... one that eliminates the conventional, institutional feel of traditional nursing facilities.

An Innovative Approach to Nursing Home Care!

Once completed, the campus will feature 16 ranch-style houses with each house accommodating 12 residents for a total of 192 seniors. The homes are complete with private bedrooms and baths, family-style country kitchens with living/dining areas. While the houses are homes in every way, security and technology are built in to insure resident safety.

Staff who care for elders in this new model are CNAs/certified nursing assistants, and are referred to as a "shahbaz" (singular) or "shahbazim" (plural). They are specially trained and encouraged to engage more in the lives of the residents, much like family members.
Read "The Legend of Shabaz."

Eddy Village Green is the first-of-its-kind community in the greater Capital Region and New York State to replicate THE GREEN HOUSE®. The new model has proven to improve quality of life for residents, with less depression and greater dignity, privacy, meaningful activity and relationships.
