The Good Neighbor Society (GNS), a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), encompasses independent living, assisted living, post hospital rehab, memory care, long term care and hospice care all on one campus to facilitate your retirement. GNS is comprised of 11 local churches of differing denominations and one associate member. Each church appoints members to the advisory board for the GNS leadership team. Good Neighbor Home In 1961, seven Lutheran churches began the design phase for the Good Neighbor Home. Plans were approved and construction began in May 1962. The Good Neighbor Home opened to the first residents on July 1, 1963 with 55 beds, forming the current South End. Throughout the years Good Neighbor Home has expanded and been remodeled to serve 113 residents. The Meadows The Meadows began with 24 assisted living apartments to serve the Delaware County Community in March 2000. With this addition, the Good Neighbor Home became the Good Neighbor Society. Due to increasing demand for assisted living services, 6 additional apartments were occupied in July of 2009. Marietta's Place During 2010, the Good Neighbor Society answered another calling, which was to serve those with early to moderate stages of dementia. Marietta's Place, which opened in January of 2011, has served as a safe haven for many Delaware County families as their loved one faces a dementia diagnosis. Neighborhood Villas In 2016, the Good Neighbor Society broke ground for 19 independent living condos. These maintenance free homes have rounded out our community to offer a custom solution for any stage of retirement. Into the Future We continually look for ways to enhance the lives of those we serve and to find areas of need in our community. When an area of need is identified, we assist in creating a common goal.
