Glenwell
Assisted Living & Memory Care · Buffalo, NY

Overview of Glenwell

Glenwell is on Old Union Road in Cheektowaga, a suburb in Erie County. It has a Walk Score of 6, which means most people need a car to get around. Because of this, residents mostly stay on the property for their daily needs.

The community has 120 beds and is run by DePaul Adult Care Communities, Inc. They offer both assisted living and memory care in the same building.

Care is available 24 hours a day, and licensed nurses and aides are always on-site to help. The staff assists with medicine, manages care plans, and monitors emergency call systems.

If a family needs a short-term stay, they offer respite care. This is a good way to try out the community. Monthly costs are simpler because utilities are included. Residents also get three meals a day and can visit the on-site beauty shop or barbershop.

The memory care program helps people with memory loss, while others live in the assisted living section. Having both types of care and 24-hour nursing makes Glenwell one of the more complete care options in Erie County.

For families in Cheektowaga looking for a place with constant nursing support, Glenwell is set up to provide the medical care their loved ones need.
