“It is great to be a part of this innovative concept bringing a better life and care to our elders at Green Hill,” said Toni Lynn Davis, Green Hill President and CEO.  “I passionately believe in this model and love being able to share with elder care providers the benefits to the Green House model in the hope that all elders will have the opportunity to live fully with individualized quality care in a ‘home’ environment throughout their final years. “
