OSSIPEE — The former county nursing home that now sits unused may soon have the opportunity to turn lives around as a place of learning, healing and creativity, county officials and representatives from extension service said Thursday. 

The annex has been largely underused for over a decade. The building includes a commercial kitchen, a large meeting room, and former resident rooms that could be used for classrooms. The building is about 32,000 square feet and about a third of it is in use.
