Who holds the license for Glory Care?
The licensee of record is Thomas Roy and Gita Roy, and it is the only home in our five-county area under that licensee name.
A single-home licensee often means the owner is closely involved day to day; ask who covers when the owner or administrator is away.
Does Glory Care accept residents with Alzheimer's or dementia?
LARA's file does not include Alzheimer's among the populations Glory Care serves; it lists physically handicapped, developmentally disabled, mentally ill, and aged.
Memory loss after move-in is common. Ask what the home does when a resident starts wandering or needs cues for daily tasks, and keep the Alzheimer's-designated homes in mind as a next step.
What did LARA's most recent inspection of Glory Care find?
No violations: the renewal study LARA published on June 23, 2025 (on-site April 14, 2025) recommended continuing Glory Care's license without establishing any rule violation.
