Providing the best care for its valued residents, The Glenview at Pelican Bay looks forward to a dynamic future

Home, in our life’s journey, holds significant value. It’s not just about shelter but the quality of life, comfort, and the pursuit of aspirations. The Glenview at Pelican Bay is an exciting example for those seeking to redefine their retirement years in a home that embodies luxury, care, and an unparalleled lifestyle.

Imagine waking up to the gentle whispers of the Gulf of Mexico, with a three-mile-long private beach just a stone’s throw away. Envision a place where your needs are met with opulent and pampering services and resort-style amenities; each dining experience is a culinary delight, and your cherished spots in Naples are conveniently nearby. This is the everyday reality that Glenview offers.

In conversation with Daniel Gomez, Executive Director and Administrator of The Glenview at Pelican Bay, we delve into the senior living community’s rich history and unique offerings in Naples, Florida. With a commitment to providing a holistic approach to senior care, Glenview has firmly established itself as a trusted haven for retirees seeking a vibrant and supportive environment.

Its cooperative model is one piece that sets Glenview apart. Here, residents are more than occupants; they are vested community members, owning their units and associated real estate. Ownership of their units empowers them to actively participate in decisions shaping the community, aligning them with their preferences and needs.

Glenview’s partnership with LCS Corporation, a trusted management company, further enhances this sense of ownership, ensuring these expectations are consistently met. Gomez proudly says, “We’re Florida’s only equity ownership, LifeCare Community, which means your investment stays with you, protecting your estate for the next generation.”

A Legacy of Care

Glenview’s journey is infused with a rich history that spans over three decades. It was established by a group of forward-thinking individuals who envisioned a cooperative venture seamlessly blending independent living with a comprehensive healthcare component. Over time, this visionary concept has evolved into a multi-layered senior living community designed to address a wide spectrum of needs, from independent living to skilled nursing care.

With 15 years of invaluable experience in senior living management, including standalone skilled nursing communities, assisted living, memory care, and home care services, Gomez understands seniors’ intricate and involved needs.

Gomez takes on many roles at the heart of Glenview’s day-to-day operations. His dedication extends far beyond the boundaries of a typical five-day workweek, as the community operates seven days a week, around the clock. His responsibilities incorporate a wide array of departments, including finance, marketing, nursing, skilled nursing, home care, hospitality, dining, environmental services, engineering, and the lifestyle program, which orchestrates recreational activities within the community.

Apart from overseeing these departments, Gomez assumes a vital role in nurturing a harmonious work environment, ensuring that his teams consistently attain their financial goals with precision and purpose.

Exceptional Home Care Services

Glenview’s home care division is incredible, providing comprehensive support across all community living levels. Residents can age in place independently, receiving essential care and assistance. This service covers independent living, skilled nursing, and various in-between stages. Glenview’s team, consisting of nurses, home care aides, and certified nursing assistants (CNAs), guarantees personalized attention to each resident’s unique needs.

Services provided include nursing support and home health aid to skilled and certified nurse aid assistants, medication administration, transportation, physician visits, and light housekeeping. Importantly, the continuity of care ensures that residents receive consistent support throughout their stay.

The skilled nursing unit also plays a huge role in Glenview’s continuum of care. Residents receive personalized care plans tailored to their specific needs, whether they are short-term patients transitioning from a hospital stay or long-term residents. Glenview collaborates closely with various insurance providers, including Medicare and managed care companies, to ensure residents receive the highest quality care and progress toward their goals effectively.

Demonstrating a commitment to quality care, the Glenview community has consistently earned five-star ratings in quality measures, showcasing its dedication to meeting and surpassing residents’ expectations. Its close collaboration with local hospitals and its integral role in the Accountability Affordable Act Organization confirms its status as a preferred provider in the region.

A Diverse Range of Services

With a staffing team of over 300 employees, Glenview delivers a wide range of services crafted to cater to every aspect of senior living. From concierge services and wellness clinics to marketing and clinical liaison support, this diverse staff roster spans various industries, guaranteeing that residents receive comprehensive, well-rounded care and assistance. In addition, residents enjoy the privilege of on-site concierge physicians who play a key role in maintaining their overall well-being.

The community’s commitment to sustaining a high standard of living extends to its dining services, with options that range from restaurant-style dining to in-room meal delivery. Glenview’s certified dietary manager oversees the clinical component of care, ensuring residents’ nutritional needs are met with the utmost attention to detail.

Looking ahead, the future of senior living and how Glenview plans to remain a vital voice within the industry. Gomez states the importance of maintaining excellent outcomes and focusing on quality measures outlined by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services). Glenview is also actively engaged with LeadingAge Florida, a key advocate for the industry in the state, to confirm that they stay updated on industry developments and can effectively advocate for the needs of their residents.

In response to the ongoing challenge of staff shortages, Gomez underscores his commitment to nurturing a positive work environment that draws in and retains staff members, ensuring their job satisfaction at Glenview. This unwavering focus on fostering a supportive workplace culture harmonizes seamlessly with Glenview’s mission of providing exceptional care to its beloved residents.
