About Glenbrook Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center
Glenbrook Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Center is located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and is part of American Senior Communities. The community offers short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, respite care, and hospice care, with a focus on person-centered support for residents and their families.
Short-Term Rehabilitation is designed for individuals recovering from stroke, cardiovascular difficulties, orthopedic surgery, or other debilitating conditions, with the goal of returning home safely. The program includes physical, occupational, and speech/language therapies alongside an interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, therapists, and social workers. Through the Road to Recovery program, the care team meets with patients and families within the first 72 hours of admission to establish discharge goals. Additional services include wound care, fall prevention, contracture management, wheelchair positioning, mobility training, and strength-building wellness and aerobic conditioning programs.
Long-Term Care is available for those who can no longer manage daily tasks independently due to illness, injury, or frailty. Care is provided under the guidance of an attending physician by licensed nurses, trained health care aides, and an interdisciplinary team, including social services, activities, and therapy services aimed at helping residents maintain the highest possible level of independence. The community describes its settings as home-like, cheerful, and secure. Both private pay and Medicaid are accepted, with Medicaid specialists available to assist families through the application process.
Respite Care offers short-term stays for seniors, giving home caregivers a break to travel, recover from illness, start new employment, or pursue other needs. Stays can be extended if additional care is required, with staff assessing each guest's needs to ensure comfortable, appropriate care.
Hospice and palliative care services focus on comfort, pain relief, and quality of life for those facing terminal illness. Through partnerships with local hospice companies, the community provides skilled nursing care, respite care, spiritual and bereavement counseling, medical equipment and supplies, social services, and pharmacy services, supported by an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, aides, volunteers, social workers, and clergy.
