Testimonials

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Glenwood in Effingham definitely knows how to throw a party! They put on an outstanding community block party that was organized, welcoming, and full of fun for all ages. It was wonderful to see so many families, friends, and neighbors come together to enjoy a day filled with activities, laughter, and community.

One thing that really stood out was the incredible raffle. You could tell the Glenwood team put a lot of time and effort into reaching out to local businesses to secure an impressive variety of raffle prizes. It was a great way to involve the community and support local businesses while making the event even more exciting.

We had the privilege of being part of the event, and it was clear how much thought and effort the Glenwood team put into making it a success. Their hospitality, attention to detail, and commitment to creating a fun experience for everyone really stood out.

Thank you, Glenwood, for investing in the community and bringing people together. We were honored to be a part of such a fantastic event and would love the opportunity to work with you again in the future!

Our dad moved into The Glenwood of Effingham in October 2025. From the moment he moved into until he passed away, the staff made him (and us, his family) feel welcomed and cared for. As dad continued to decline, the staff increased their support and care.
During the last week of dad’s life, the staff on all shifts gave us so much help that he was able to stay at The Glenwood instead of moving to another facility.
We are forever grateful for all of the staff at The Glenwood of Effingham. Extra kudos to Stephanie❤️

We feel like our mother had a great experience living at the Glenwood. Everyone who worked there were very kind and caring to her which is most important. People who visited her also really liked the family atmosphere. We feel the Glenwood is the best assisted living there is.
