They are called ‘Granny Pods’ and they\u00a0are starting to replace the modern day nursing home.<\/p>\n

\"MedCottage\"<\/p>\n

MEDCottage, a company that aims to realize a vision of family-managed healthcare. The MEDCottage or ‘Granny Pod’, like the one in this video, “is a mobile, modular medical home designed to be temporarily placed on a caregiver’s property for rehabilitation and extended care. Simply stated, it’s a state-of-the-art hospital room with remote monitoring” which enables elderly or sick relatives to stay with family instead of being stuck in an impersonal senior or care facility.<\/p>\n

There are three different models to chose from, ranging in size from around 300-600 square feet. They are connected directly to the existing utilities of the main home on the property and include everything needed for an assisted living experience.<\/p>\n

These cottages do come with a cost, of course. The Classic, the model seen in this video, clocks in at 288 square feet and runs $53,750, per MEDCottage’s product listing. The basic model, with an extra ten square feet, is more of a studio setup\u00a0(without a separate bedroom) and costs $39,625. For $61,125, you can upgrade to the Grand and get over double the square footage and have more space for caregivers.<\/p>\n
