Welcome to Lincoln Glen -- A Caring Community for
Seniors
NESTLED AMONG SIX ACRES in San Jose's Willow Glen neighborhood,
Lincoln Glen Manor is dedicated to enhancing the lives of seniors by providing
four levels of care.
Conceived in 1965 by the Lincoln Glen
Church Congregation, Lincoln Glen Manor was built in 1969.
At that time, the community felt a responsibility to care
for their seniors. Thus, the concept of Lincoln Glen Manor
was instituted as a caring community for seniors adjacent to
Lincoln Glen Church. Today, Lincoln Glen Manor provides
four levels of care for seniors.
Perhaps you are a senior
citizen desiring to scale down your lifestyle from a large
family home to a cozy caring community? Or maybe you are at
the stage of life where you require a little help with daily
activities? Possibly you are in the need of daily nursing
care? Perhaps your loved one is struggling with Alzheimer's
Disease or dementia? Whatever your stage of life, Lincoln Glen Manor is the
optimum choice for enhancing the lives of seniors by
providing independent living, assisted living and skilled
nursing care.
Thinking about Getting Some Help? What type of Care do you Need?
Three out of four people over age 65 will need some form of long term care services during
their lifetime. For the best outcome, it’s important to identify the most appropriate setting
to serve the specific needs of each individual.
Ranging from in-home care to memory care to
skilled nursing, the contiuum of care available to seniors offers the help, safety and support each person requires
for their specific needs abilities and wishes.

Understanding the Continuum of Care."
