Glenn Park of Defiance

The GlennPark Senior Living community has worked out for our loved one because at the time of our tour they allowed smoking in the rooms, however now they no longer allow smoking for new residents but the grandfathered our loved one in so our loved is still to allowed smoke.

We've been to Glenn Park of Defiance a couple of times, and they offer a lot more square feet there for a little bit less money. That is why this is of interest to us. That is positive for people who have a lot of stuff in their house that they don't want to get rid of. The rooms were real nice, well kept, and it has everything you needed. They do all the food preparations, so you don't have to cook. You don't have to do maintenance either. Everything is clean. They have bingo, cards, and a monthly calendar of activities. They have something going on every day. When I walked in, the atmosphere was just pretty plain. We're not going to be involved with the outside too much anyway, but they do have a picnic pavilion so you can have family gatherings in the summer, which is nice. All the other buildings were very nice as well. They had bungalows and different kinds of living options, but I guess they're all filled. We're going to be at the very new part at the back, where they have their independent apartments, assisted living apartments, and where the dining area and everything is. The person who toured us was not perfect, but she was OK. She was a retired employee and just volunteered that day, so she can't say a whole lot about the place. The administrator deals with us, and she's a very nice lady. She's pretty busy, but she handles all your questions and anything very well. She's knowledgeable. She told us she wanted us to have a free meal, but then she had to go to some kind of family situation. She left me and my husband with the volunteer lady, but I've heard that the food is absolutely wonderful. They have people come in from the outside on certain days when it's open to the public. My sister ate there and said it's wonderful.

Rooms are kept clean. Staff is very attentive. I have been there at different times of the day and days of the week and the attention to the residents is consistent. The meals are wonderful; good variety. No place is perfect, but this one comes close.

We love Glenn Park. They do a great job taking care of mom. There are loads of things for them to do. We are very pleased and recommend it to anyone. We have even checked on the villa for me and my wife.

The staff is very friendly. I think everyone works hard at keeping the residence happy and comfortable. I’m impressed with the cleanliness of the facility also.
