The Glenmary in Memphis operates as an Independent Living community, making it suitable for residents who want to maintain an active lifestyle while still having access to support when needed. Short-term respite stays are available, and the staff can monitor diabetes and coordinate physician visits. A speech therapist is on call for residents who need help with communication or swallowing issues, and these clinical offerings can be arranged without residents having to leave the property.

Clinical coverage is reinforced by an emergency call system and a secured environment. Nurses are on site to handle medication management, ongoing health assessments, incontinence services, and ambulatory assistance. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions can be scheduled in the community’s dedicated treatment areas. When conditions progress, hospice services are available, and families can choose memory-care-only support if needed. Daily living assistance, including help with bathing, dressing, and grooming, is provided for respite guests or permanent residents whose needs change.

Apartments range from studio and efficiency layouts to units with full kitchenettes, washers and dryers, balconies, decks, or patios. Utilities, cable television, Wi-Fi, and air conditioning are included in the monthly rate, and housekeeping keeps each residence clean. Wheelchair-accessible showers are available in select floor plans, and cats are welcome in designated units. Because features vary, not every apartment offers every listed convenience.

Meals are served restaurant-style in the main dining room, and all-day dining allows residents to eat on their own schedule. The culinary team prepares low-sodium, no-sugar, vegetarian, and organic selections alongside standard options, and healthy snacks are stocked throughout the day. Room service is offered for those who prefer to dine in their apartments, and visiting family members can purchase guest meals.

Residents can join clubs, attend educational speakers, or relax in the library and computer lounge. A swimming pool, fitness and tai chi classes, and walking paths support physical activity, while the game room, arts and crafts studio, and movie theater provide recreation. Scheduled day trips, wine tastings, holiday parties, birthday celebrations, dances, and intergenerational programs encourage social engagement.
