We visited Glen Meadows Retirement Community. The staff was very helpful. They welcomed us and showed us around the campus. It was very clean and very well maintained. They have various categories of rooms, the ones we saw were well maintained and clean. The lists of activities that the residents can do are quite wide. They have games for people to play in groups. They also have the option of going out either as a group or separately to see concerts and activities around the community. It was a very well organized place. We were able to eat there, and the food was very good. The whole atmosphere was very pleasant. The place looked very secure. They have a check in that you had to go through in order to get to the resident. It also offers a variety of different apartment homes to suit different people and different lifestyles.

My 93 year old father was living in another local retirement community in Towson. Four years ago the price of his apartment was going up dramatically, so I decided to compare where he was living to other retirement communities. I found Glen Meadows and it was a much more affordable community. While it was price that motivated me to move him at a very healthy 89, it is obvious now that I did the right thing.

First, Glen Meadows is a smaller more intimate community. The whole staff is very attentive to my father's needs and treat him with dignity and respect. When I am not in towsn, I can rely on the Executive Director to give me a call if she or one of the staff become concerned about my dad. I am able to then address the situation. It has given me peace of mind.

Secondly, the food is excellent! The chef and his staff prepare meals with FRESH ingredients and no repetitive, frozen, "institutionalized" foods are served. Our family often joins dad for the delicious Sunday brunches and we have even opted to enjoy Easter brunch there instead of going out each year. Dad always says there is plenty of variety.

Thirdly, the activities are numerous. Dad enjoys the movies, but there is so much more to do. Being Catholic, he also appreciates receiving communion at Glen Meadows. Also, transportation is available to special events (which are planned) or just to go shopping. Dad gets a ride to church every week.

Our family is more than delighted with the move to Glen Meadows, but it is my father whose opinion matters most and he enjoys living there.

This community is the best of the best in the Baltimore County area. The staff are so dedicated and compassionate, there is a strong culture of wellness, family and caring, lots of activities, restaurant hours in the dining room and a full menu, and the care is very good. Very mission driven. Good leadership. I feel very comfortable and blesses that my mother choose Glen Meadows Retirement Community as her home.

A Caring Professional Community – My mother spent the last 4 years of her life at Glen Meadows Retirement Community; beginning in Independent living moving through all stages of the center as her abilities aged. She was always treated with dignity and encouraged to participate in the many varied activities available within thecommunity. I feel that she was cared for by a staff that not only looked after her physical needs, but her emotional and mental needs as well. She felt blessed to feel safe and we both appreciated the many people she came in contact with daily from the housekeepers to the nurses - all were very helpful and understanding of her needs - and mine!

I have lived at Glen Meadows Retirement Community for about 2 years and I am really happy. The area is very quiet and a tranquil setting. They have Bingo, fitness classes, art classes, meet & greets and trips.
The managers are really nice and easy to talk to.
The best thing is that I have a beautiful, large apartment with a gorgeous view!
Very nice place to live!!!

Glen Meadows Retirement Community had a wonderful aesthetic, and the staff was very kind. We dined in their dining room, and the food was wonderful. The "campus" is very well-kept, and reminded me of a country club. The residents seem very pleased with their amenities, and I can see why. The staff does a good job of organizing events for the residents, and from what I understand special luncheons and dinner parties are very common. Glen Meadows offers beautiful spacious living options. Glen Meadows takes care of its residents through all stages of life, no matter their needs.

Glen Meadows retirement community is a beautiful place--clean and well-managed. Staff is amazingly attentive, responsive, and compassionate. My father says over and over again--they could not do anything to make it better--it's perfect. Glen Meadows far surpasses anything I expected in a senior community, and I have great peace of mind that my 87-year old father is in good hands.

Glen Meadows Retirement Community is well run, immaculate and have a lovely, caring staff. Along with the day to day services there are a plethora of extra activities. The residents are varied but have one thing in common - they are well educated, interesting people who expect to live in a stimulating atmosphere.

My mother has lived at Glen Meadows Retirement Community for over a year now. It was a very hard decision to make. However, we could not be happier with our decision. My mother loves it there. I love knowing she is taken care of and I don't have to worry about her. The staff is very caring and make sure she gets involved in activities. She gets her hair and nails done weekly. There is a church service on Sundays.

One thing we looked for was cleanliness. It is a very clean facility. It does not have unseemly smells. I have never seen a resident in an undressed state. The staff is very good about the residents keeping their dignity.

They keep me informed of everything that is going on.
I would highly recommend Glen Meadows. They have quickly addressed any concerns and we have quarterly meetings so that we are all on the same page as to her care plan.
I am very happy - but the most important thing is that my mom is happy.
