Greenbrier Residential Living

Greenbrier Residential Living sits on about 15 acres along E. Garriott Rd in Enid, Oklahoma, offering several choices for senior care, depending on what a person needs, and it goes by its own set of names for things, so you'll see The Home of Greenbrier for assisted living, Burgundy Place for independent apartments off campus, and Greenbrier Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation for nursing care, which also happens to be the largest freestanding skilled nursing and rehab center in Northwest Oklahoma, plus it's got a special Veteran's facility for 24-hour care since it's the only one in the area that contracts for veterans. The different living options cover independent living, assisted living, nursing care, memory support for dementia or Alzheimer's, and skilled rehab, and folks can find everything from studios to semi-private rooms, and some pets are allowed, but each place is designed for comfort and safety with things like kitchens or kitchenettes, TV, washers and dryers, and sprinkler systems for safety, and there's a focus on being handicap accessible. They have an all-inclusive pricing approach, a faith-based and inclusive attitude, and the staff gets recognized for being helpful, joyful, and well-trained with staffing ratios higher than average. People can eat in the Four Seasons Café, where chefs plan meals and serve three meals every day, and they even talk about the 5-star dining experience, so food's covered, and there's an on-site beauty salon and barber shop for haircuts. The activity calendar gets managed by a full-time activity director and a part-time event coordinator, with social games, arts and crafts, fitness, off-site trips, and health or education programs, and in addition to indoor and outdoor common areas like walking paths along Willow Road, there's the whirlpool baths three times a week and rooms for activities. Greenbrier also gives health care like diabetic and incontinence care, medication management, wound care, nurse services, podiatry, occupational therapy, and personal care help for bathing, walking or wheelchairs, and toileting, and they'll handle laundry and housekeeping too, plus they offer transportation when needed. The memory care unit provides secure settings, specialized activities for the mind, and individualized care plans for residents with dementia or Alzheimer's, since they have staff with expertise in memory care. Burgundy Place is good for folks looking for independent, maintenance-free living, since they offer apartments, daily check-ins, meals, and social opportunities, and the skilled nursing part supports people who need continual nurse supervision, rehab, or help after a hospital stay. Greenbrier also supports veterans, does counseling, and accepts long-term care insurance. Since opening back in 1971 by Herman and Gayle Hackett, the place has focused on being a meaningful home for seniors, working to treat everyone with respect, kindness, understanding, and providing services fit to what each person actually wants or needs at that point in life, all while keeping things simple and friendly with lots of ways for people to stay active, meet others, and feel at home. They're licensed by the State, carry a Medicare 5 Star Rating, and maintain a proud history in the Enid community, and people can check their website or use their Google location (Plus Code 94QQ+9H, Enid) for more details about what's available or to set up a tour, since they offer both in-person and virtual options every day between 8:00 in the morning and 8:00 at night.
