Company Description:

Since 1898, The Glen strives to provide the best environment for seniors. Our focus is a “resident directed” philosophy that caters to each resident's individuality by respecting their choices, preserving their dignity and giving them every opportunity to live a purposeful life.

At The Cottages, we provide an environment for those living with memory loss in a unique setting, residents can enjoy their own individual apartments, while still receiving some assistance with bathing, dressing, and other support services. Residents at the cottages enjoy a family style environment complete with a communal kitchen, living area, dining room, sunroom, and a beautiful garden. The Glen is rich in tradition, progressive in theory, acclaimed in satisfaction, and --most importantly-- feels like home.
