Environments for Aging * special supplement

Hillcrest Country Estates is a
CCRC in suburban Omaha that
continues to expand its range of
services. The provider recognized
the need for a short-term rehabilitation center to serve its own
residents as well as others who live
nearby. The result is the first rehab
cottage in Nebraska.
The architecture team was
challenged to efficiently design a
rehabilitation center with gathering
and socialization spaces, a rehab
gymnasium, and 22
private suites to fit
within significant existing site constraints.
Further, the building
had to be oriented to
connect to existing
site amenities. Finally,
it had to serve as an
architectural transition
between the existing
cottage typology and
the new large-scale
projects planned on
campus.
The 17,019-squarefoot building is de-

signed around a central service
hub, the focal point being the
rehab gymnasium. The team
minimized resident steps to
rehab services by encircling the
gym with units on three sides.
The challenge of daylighting this
important interior component
was addressed by increasing the
volume of space with dormers
and clerestory windows.
Interior spaces were designed
to maximize efficiency while
establishing levels of privacy as
guests move through the cottage
towards the resident suites.
Connectivity between the dining and living room areas and
the adjacent cyber café create
expandable socialization space.
The Rehab Cottage at Hillcrest Country Estates provides
the market with a much-needed
service. The building was efficiently incorporated into the
existing site and serves as an
architectural bridge that unifies
the campus while positioning
Hillcrest Health Services for the
future.
