One of my favorite things about the common areas of Emeritus at Glendale is that they have beautiful plants scattered throughout, it gives off a very welcoming and relaxing vibe. I have only been to this facility one time but I was very pleased with the experience. I walked into what looked to be an activity room and a group of residents were in there knitting. I started chatting with them about the facility and asking them questions about how they like living there and they all had wonderful things to say about Emeritus at Glendale. One of the ladies said that the thing she will always remember and appreciate about the facility, are the birthdays. She said that on every residents' birthday there will be balloons and a card signed by every staff member waiting in their room for them when they wake up. She said that it makes everyone feel so special and that waking up to the balloons is a wonderful surprise. The staff all seem very protective and caring of the residents. They treat each resident like family and they provide each resident with individualized attention which also make the residents feel special. I would very much recommend Emeritus at Glendale to those searching for an assisted living facility.
My mother lives here!
My mother has been living at Emeritus at Glendale the past two years. I was so surprised when I pulled up this site today to find the review from the volunteer. I visited about 15 facilities in the Peoria/Glendale area while looking for a place my mother could call home. Trust me after looking at that many locations I can assure you Emeritus at Glendale does rate STELLAR! I have never been there when the property was not a five star. The garden area in the middle of the building gives everyone a peaceful environment when visiting. The facility just received new decor this past year. It might not be what everyone might want. However, we have to remember that the decor is for the residences not visitors. I don't decorate my home for the visitors but for my family. I think the staff decorated this facility to make their residences feel more comfortable. I don't know how they are able to maintain the property and take such excellent care of their residences but everyday they do an outstanding job. I usually visit my mother at least once a week. I never let the staff know when I am coming so I can get a good picture of the care they are providing. I can honestly say that I have never been there when any resident wasn't being giving special attention. That was why I chose the facility in the first place. In fact, this staff becomes a part of the family. You might wonder how I can say that....well they know my mother's habits and behaviors so well they can tell when she isn't feeling well. I am immediately contacted when this occurs. I am shocked that you could come into my mother's home several times then say the MAJORITY of their worker don't like their jobs and are mean. That upsets me greatly because you have no right to come into our home and critize our family. I have never seen anyone at Emeritus at Glendale be mean to a resident. Emeritus at Glendale is stellar and their staff is the best or else I WOULD NOT have chosen it to be my mother's home nor would I continue to leave her in their care. My mother lives in a memory care facility...that is NOT a Nursing home.
