What this means for your family
This facility is an excellent choice for patients focused on intensive physical or occupational therapy, as their rehab services are a standout strength. However, families should verify the current status of the facility's climate control and closely monitor responsiveness to call lights, as these have been recurring pain points in the past.

Key Review Excerpts
“My dad stayed here and he is forever grateful for the nursing and therapy services! My family and i will always remember how welcoming and understanding glenwood care center was!”
“The staff was caring loving and respectful to him . This time he is very sick and can hardly eat or communicate. None the less they are treating him with dignity, respect, and doing all they can to help him.”
“My mom complained about her leg for weeks. We went in looked at it and saw it looked off. We reported it to the nurse who could care less and they yet again ignored it! They ended up having to amputate her leg from above the need.”
