Ivy Glenn Terrace I operates as a residential care home and is equipped to handle a wide spectrum of medical needs. The team supports residents who wander at any time of day, show combative or other behavioral issues, or remain awake through the night. Clinical oversight extends to wound care, oxygen therapy, and specialized diets, including carbohydrate-controlled plans for diabetics on oral medication, insulin injections, or sliding-scale regimens. Residents younger than 60 years old can be admitted, and the community is prepared to give full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Advanced dementia care is available, and the staff is trained to recognize and respond promptly to changes in condition.

Registered and licensed nurses oversee care plans, and every caregiver has cleared background checks. An awake night shift is on duty, supplemented by an asleep shift for added coverage. A fenced rear area, door alarms, and personal emergency response systems help limit elopement risks. Podiatry services are provided on site, and the residence accepts individuals with psychiatric conditions. Transfer support ranges from standby help for walker users to two-person or full Hoyer lift transfers for bed-bound residents, ensuring that mobility challenges do not prevent admission.

Private bedrooms with in-room bathrooms are available, though room layouts vary and not all units include every feature. Some rooms come furnished, while others allow residents to bring their own belongings and even repaint or decorate. Cable hookups are offered in select rooms so residents can maintain familiar routines without extra installation steps.

Meals follow a set menu planned to meet nutritional guidelines, and staff can modify textures and ingredients for medical or personal reasons such as low-sodium, renal, or diabetic needs. Snacks are available throughout the day, and caregivers provide full assistance with eating when required to ensure that every resident receives adequate nutrition and hydration.

Residents have access to outdoor smoking areas, wheelchair-friendly pathways, internet connectivity, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation is provided for medical appointments and errands, and the property is close to public transit stops. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
