Services
Barclay Friends is a Kendal affiliate offering homelike accommodations and warm, compassionate care. Our services for older adults include post-acute rehabilitation and skilled nursing care. We employ a dedicated staff with many years of service who understand that focusing on residents’ individual needs enhances their quality of life. In a setting of beautiful gardens, residents work with our horticultural therapist to design floral arrangements and cultivate produce for the local food bank. Our recreational team helps residents learn of their “not before realized” creativity by utilizing arts and music.
Values
Representing a long-time Quaker tradition, Barclay Friends upholds the dignity and independence of each resident. We understand loved ones deserve attentive and devoted care. Barclay Friends is proud to be accredited by The Joint Commission as a Nursing Care Center and has achieved certificates in Post-Acute Care and Memory Care.
Our Future
With renewed hope for the future, here at Barclay Friends, we are well underway in the development of a new personal care and memory care building. Named Preston, after 19th century Quaker physician Ann Preston, this state-of-the-art building will offer residents spacious apartments, a wide range of activities, and quality healthcare services.
