The Glendale Costs & Pricing

At The Glendale, residents can expect a competitive pricing structure for their living arrangements compared to both Lucas County and the broader state of Ohio. For a semi-private room, The Glendale offers a monthly cost of $3,365, which notably undercuts the county average of $3,659 and the state average of $3,965. This positions The Glendale as an appealing option for those seeking affordability without compromising on quality. In terms of studio accommodations, however, the pricing is slightly higher at $4,495 compared to Lucas County's average of $3,843 and Ohio's average of $3,727. Despite this variance in studio costs, The Glendale emphasizes its commitment to providing a supportive and enriching environment that justifies its investment in resident care and community engagement.

Overall Review of The Glendale

common 34 reviews mention this

Staff care and responsiveness stand out

Residents and families repeatedly describe the staff as caring, friendly, and responsive.

A large share of reviewers praise the staff for being kind and attentive, with many describing help that goes beyond basics. Several families also mention communication and follow-through—like getting back to messages, connecting directly with the head nurse, and updating families with participation in activities. Reviews also include a few serious complaints about care execution and responsiveness, including concerns about medication handling and limited staffing for higher needs.

common 22 reviews mention this

Activities keep residents engaged

Many residents are described as staying busy with frequent activities and outings.

Reviewers commonly mention socialization and getting out of the community, including bingo, games, musicians, and regular outings on the community bus. People also describe the setting as smaller, which seems to support engagement without feeling like a large facility. While most comments are positive about keeping residents involved, a few families suggest certain activity options may be more geared toward more-mobile residents.

common 16 reviews mention this

Dining quality draws mixed feedback

Meals are frequently mentioned, with residents often liking the food but some reporting gaps.

Several reviewers say their loved ones like the food and describe meals in positive terms, sometimes including comfort-style favorites. The menu also comes up with requests for more variety or healthier options. A smaller number of reviews raise concerns about dietary consistency and the ability to follow specific needs, including one story describing missed diabetic diet support.

Pricing is often described as fair

Families often say the community’s cost-to-care balance is better than comparable options.

Multiple reviewers describe the Glendale as a good value and note it can cost less than other places they compared. The shared-room setup is specifically mentioned as a way to reduce cost for two people. Pricing comparisons in reviews also come alongside comments that it may be best suited for people who can be more actively involved, so families are encouraged to confirm fit for individual needs.

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Staffing and care needs vary

Some reviews warn that care quality may depend on needs and on having daily family advocacy.

A handful of reviewers caution that getting the right level of care can require active follow-up, especially around medications and meeting dietary needs. These comments also include concerns about staffing for certain situations, including overnight support and coverage when help is needed quickly. Others still report strong care, so the reviews suggest it’s important to confirm day-to-day support against the specific needs of your loved one.
