Good
Shepherd-Fairview Home is the result of a merger in 1968 of two
smaller homes: The House of the Good Shepherd (Episcopal), founded in
1870 and the Fairview Home (Presbyterian), founded in 1891 as the Home
for Aged Women. The Home is a private, not-for-profit corporation,
governed by a board of directors selected from the sponsoring
Episcopal and Presbyterian Churches, and is open to people of all
faiths.

The Home’s philosophy is to meet the ongoing needs of residents. The
apartments, adult care facility and skilled nursing facility occupy
three separate wings in a single community residence. The apartment
wing has 39 independent living units with a living room, full kitchen
and bath and one or two bedrooms. The adult care facility has 83
private rooms, each with a bath with shower. It is certified by the
New York State Department of Health and participates in the
Supplemental Security Income Program (SSI). The nursing facility can
accommodate 86 residents. It is a licensed residential health care
facility and is certified by the Department of Health. Short-term stay
rehabilitation services are available in the nursing facility. There
are also two respite beds. Respite care in the nursing facility can be
arranged for individuals being cared for at home. This program offers
caregivers the opportunity to take a needed vacation, or perhaps just
the opportunity to rest and relax. |
