I cannot express my gratitude for all the wonderful care my mom was given this last year at Glenhaven. From the time we moved her in about year ago to her final breath on Sunday. Sara, Judy, the other residents and so many more. I knew my mom was in great care. My mom would say she was happy and safe until she was almost gone, and yet the care they provided for her was the same caring support as day one. I would recommend this place to take care of others. Thank you for all the love and support you showed my mom and our family.

I could not ask for a better care team for my grandmother throughout all the stages in her life. From getting back on her feet with rehabilitation services with Melinda and Amy at Hillcrest to her decline and actively passing away. The care there was exceptional and I could trust that when I was not present that my loved one was being well taken care of and I never had a doubt in my mind that she was getting above and beyond care. Special thanks to the Glen Haven team especially Sara, Stacee and Jane for the love they have provided my family with when we needed it the most. I will continue to recommend this facility to my loved ones and patients that are in need.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

My aunt was there for hospice, the care there is poor at best. We the family had to be there every day or she would not have got a drink of water or a bed bath . hospice came out once the time that she was there and some of the cna's could not lift her to the bath room so the family had to do it i was really disappointed in the level of care she got when she was there.

My grandma was in this facility for about a week when she was found unresponsive due to not getting her insulin for 3 days. Instead of getting the medication she was given orange juice. She was rushed to the hospital and barely made it. She was then taken back to this nursing home (not immediate family’s decision) on Friday the 3rd and passed 2 days later. We went to go say goodbye to her before the morgue came and got her, she was in room 1 in the cottage. We walked into the cottage and her door was open with residents walking by looking at my DEAD grandmother. We then walked into the room and the nurse came storming in and yelled at us stating that we were not allowed to close the door. It was so heartbreaking to walk into the cottage and the first thing that we saw was my grandma laying dead with no respect to her body. DO NOT bring your family members here.
