There comes a time in everyone’s life when our age and health circumstances may add up to not wanting to do it all by ourselves anymore. We might decide we want help with cooking and cleaning, or we may need a little assistance with home maintenance like mowing the lawn or shoveling snow.
That’s when finding a caring, engaged senior community like Glenwood can mean so much. There are many reasons our residents cite for choosing Glenwood, but these three are the ones that are most often given.
- A community of friends and like-minded people. Residents at Glenwood decided they didn’t want to be alone or isolated anymore. Instead, they wanted to be surrounded friends, neighbors and staff who care about them. Even during the unprecedented times with COVID-19, Glenwood residents knew they were never alone. While group activities had to be put on hold, residents still had their neighbors and friends nearby and can connect while staying safe. In addition, Glenwood Community had a dedicated employee assisting with virtual iPad visits with outside family members wherever they may live.
- Beautiful, scenic surroundings. Visitors to Glenwood Community have compared it to a nature preserve or state park. Located on 70 picturesque acres with hills, woods and ponds, the Glenwood grounds often visited by deer and other wildlife. At Glenwood, you can be part of a community that is very much one with nature. The natural setting is beautiful and peaceful at any time of year. Many residents purposefully chose to escape city life and come to the scenic countryside to enjoy their retirement and later years.
- A continuum of care when you need it. Residents at Glenwood know the caring staff will take care of them through every stage of aging and life. With a nurse always on call, residents never have to worry about “what if” scenarios. The continuum of care means that residents can receive more assistance if and when they need it, and can move over to assisted living should they desire more care. There is no other independent senior living community in Marietta with that complete continuum of care available.
