Local Fire Teams Use Bethany Village to Train, Learn

On Friday, June 4, the Washington Township Fire Department conducted a training exercise for “High Rise Building Rescue” at Vista Place located on the campus of Bethany Village. Vista Place is the tallest building in Centerville and Washington Twp.

About 10 fire trucks and 40 firefighters were on campus during this event. Several Graceworks staff participated in the training event, posing as individuals requiring assistance. The event was featured on WHIO-TV and WDTN-TV newscasts.

Living Lab Makes Headlines

Our innovative Living Lab allows nursing students and researchers to study aging at home. The Living Lab is a partnership between Graceworks, Wright State University and the Nursing Institute of West Central Ohio.

"We’re excited about working in innovative ways with the Nursing Institute to give nursing and other healthcare students experience caring for older adults," said Pastor Jim Bosse, Vice-President, Community and Organizational Care, Graceworks.

Graceworks Lutheran Services allows the Nursing Institute to occupy a two-story house that is a replica of a farmhouse where the first Bethany residents lived in 1946. The Institute has turned that house into a Living Laboratory smart technology house for research and education, utilizing emerging technologies in nursing education and healthcare.

Dayton Business Spotlight featured our Living Lab in a recent broadcast.
