What Families Say

"My mother has been living at Glowcares for about three months now and I have been extremely pleased with her care. Gloria is an excellent communicator and works closely with families. The home is very clean and well kept, and the the caregivers are attentive and respectful."

Leah Acors

"Lovely, bright and clean home. The staff obviously have a heart for their residents, treating them with dignity and respect as they would want their own family treated. Gloria makes sure the families are informed about all of the care. Certainly a great model for care for your loved ones. I was very comfortable with placing my husband with dementia in her care. "

Kathleen

"Gloria and her team provided outstanding, loving, compassionate care to my mother in her final year of life. The home is beautiful and always clean and bright. The caregivers were warm and friendly, and they welcomed my sister and me whenever we came to visit. We were so blessed to find Gloria. "

Liz Oram Velesz

"My dad had been at a larger facility a couple of months before Glowcares but it wasn’t a fit. When my mom broke her hip and I needed to place my dad somewhere while she healed, Gloria’s house was perfect. The ratio of caregivers to residents was good and the combination of home cooking, fresh fruits and vegetables, and caring workers was just what dad needed. It was as close to him being at home with mom as we could hope for. "

Andy Proctor

"We were blessed to discover this wonderful place for mom. She receives exceptional care and we could not be more grateful for all the team does for her. It’s a huge sense of relief knowing that she is in great hands. Gloria, Pat, and the rest of the team are top notch caregivers and mom is extremely happy there."

Steve Vermette

"My aunty was placed at glocare before she was transitioned. The care givers were excellent with their care, and always having positive attitude towards the residents. Ms. Gloria is very compassionate with the cares of her residents. She is always supportive, timely, and efficient with feedbacks. The environment is so clean, friendly, and very accommodating. I would recommend this place if you'd ever want your loved ones to be taken good care of due to the quality of care given at this home."
