Revealing the divide: Contrasting COVID-19 outcomes in Green Houses and traditional nursing homes in the United States

Young, Y., Hsu, W-H., Shayya, A., Barnes, V., Perre, T., O-Grady, T.

Peer Review Study

This study assessed differences in COVID-19 cases and mortality rates in traditional nursing homes and Green Houses. Green Houses are smaller, more intimate residential living environments that promote personalized care and more tight-knit communities of residents and care givers. Using CMS data, researchers found that, adjusting for age, gender, and disability status, small and large nursing homes had higher COVID-19 cases and mortality rates compared to Green Houses.
