Glen Island Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation operates as a skilled nursing facility, so every resident receives care within a clinically focused setting rather than a purely social model. Short-term and long-term stays are supported, and the staff is structured to deliver round-the-clock nursing care, medication administration, and ongoing monitoring for changes in condition.

Rehabilitation services are a core part of the program. On-site physical therapists guide strength, balance, and mobility sessions, while licensed nurses coordinate treatment plans and communicate with physicians. The center also offers structured respite care, giving family caregivers the option to place a loved one in a safe environment for a limited period. Respite stays receive the same nursing oversight and therapy access as full-time residents.

Resident rooms vary in layout and may include access to a library and computer lounge for quiet reading or online communication. Housekeeping is provided, and outdoor areas give residents a place for fresh air and limited mobility exercises, but not every room is adjacent to all these features.

Daily meals are prepared and served in communal dining spaces, with therapeutic diets available when prescribed. Registered dietitians oversee menus to align with individual health needs, and snacks are offered between meals to support stable blood sugar and adequate caloric intake.

Recreational programming takes place in an activity center and includes arts and crafts, TV or movie nights, bingo, and scheduled social outings. These events are designed to maintain cognitive engagement and encourage social interaction, and participation levels can be adjusted to each resident’s abilities and preferences.
