Glenburn Home has provided care since 1946 and offers many options for seniors who need help with daily life. The facility has short-term rehab for people recovering after a hospital stay, so those who aren't ready to go home yet can get the therapy and care they need. Skilled Nursing is available for people who have serious health needs, and there are nurses and nursing assistants on staff around the clock, with supervisors for each unit, which means each group of residents has staff looking after them all day and night. Glenburn Home is licensed for both Alzheimer's Care and Retirement care, with a dedicated Memory Care community that uses alarms and secure doors so staff know if a resident tries to leave the area, along with a safe outdoor space so residents with dementia can spend time outside without worry. Staff train on Alzheimer's and dementia, so they understand how to help people who have memory problems.
Residents can choose from different living options, including Independent Living, Skilled Nursing Care, Alzheimer's and Dementia Care, and Rehab-to-Home Care. Glenburn Home has an adult community center and the William T. Murphy Community Center, which offers activities and events for residents. There's help with lawn care, building upkeep, and housekeeping, so everyone can live in a clean and tidy home without doing the chores themselves. For people with special needs, Glenburn Home has both short and long term care, as well as post-acute inpatient and outpatient rehab, all provided by licensed physical, occupational, and speech therapists right on site. Duplex apartments are available too, and there's a special Alzheimer's unit for people who need more support with memory issues.
The facility is part of the South Indiana Conference of the United Methodist Church and is affiliated with the Franklin United Methodist Community, and staff members do their best to make residents feel comfortable. Communication is easy, as the community keeps families in the loop with Facebook, Messenger, and Instagram. Glenburn Home tries to help residents get stronger, improve their quality of life, and feel at home, all in a setting that's been serving the community for many years.
