When John* arrived at Someren Glen’s skilled nursing neighborhood after suffering a stroke, the future was uncertain. He faced multiple challenges—trouble sleeping, limited mobility, cognitive struggles, and nutritional issues. These obstacles left him vulnerable to wandering, falling, and experiencing frequent confusion, raising real concerns about his ability to regain any level of independence.
That’s where the partnership between Christian Living Communities (CLC) and Curana Health made all the difference.
Thanks to the presence of Curana Health’s dedicated, on-site clinical team, John received timely and individualized care tailored to his specific needs. A carefully managed combination of medications, along with speech, physical, and occupational therapy, helped John not only recover but also regain his confidence and independence. Over time, he transitioned from skilled nursing to assisted living—a milestone that once felt far out of reach.
When John first came to our community, we weren’t sure if he would be able to transition from skilled nursing care. However, with the resident-centered team approach from our caring clinical team, Curana’s on-site healthcare services, and our therapy partners, he is flourishing.”
Steve DeBelle, Executive Director at Someren Glen
The sentiment is shared by the Curana Health team as well.
CLC’s dedication and coordinated efforts played a pivotal role in ensuring John received outstanding care. He’s now living more independently, and that’s exactly the outcome we strive for with every resident.”
Angela Gutierrez, APRN, FNP-C, Curana Health’s Regional Director of Clinical Operations (West)
Curana Health: Bringing Healthcare Home in Senior Living
John’s journey is just one example of how Curana Health is reshaping senior healthcare across CLC communities. As an on-site healthcare provider specializing in older adult health, Curana Health brings consistent, quality medical services directly to residents at Someren Glen, Clermont Park, and Holly Creek.
This model removes common barriers to care, such as transportation challenges, scheduling difficulties, and fragmented medical communication. Residents receive proactive and responsive care—all in the comfort and familiarity of their community.
Primary Care Made Simple and Accessible
When residents choose Curana Health for primary care, they gain access to a broad range of services, all delivered on-site. This includes routine check-ups, sick visits, and preventive screenings that help identify potential health issues early. Residents also benefit from medication management and individualized care planning, ensuring treatments are tailored to their evolving health needs.
Additionally, Curana coordinates lab work, x-rays, and referrals to specialists, making the entire healthcare experience more seamless. Other services, such as blood pressure checks and ear cleanings, are also available, offering a level of convenience that helps residents stay on top of their health.
By providing care directly within the community, Curana Health eliminates the need for stressful trips to outside clinics—allowing residents to receive care in a place where they feel safe and supported.
Urgent (Secondary) Care, When You Need It
Curana Health also offers urgent or secondary care, providing flexible support for residents who may already have an outside primary care physician. Whether it’s a sudden case of the flu, a minor fall, or urinary issues, Curana’s team is available to step in when it matters most.
Importantly, residents don’t need to switch doctors to access these services. They can keep their existing providers while still benefiting from Curana Health’s urgent, on-site care. However, many residents ultimately choose to make Curana their full-time provider due to the convenience, responsiveness, and continuity the team offers.
How Curana Health Works in CLC Communities
Curana Health’s approach is simple yet impactful:
- Residents can choose whether they want to use Curana for primary care, urgent care, or both.
- Medical providers come directly to the resident within their community.
- The care team collaborates with CLC staff and specialists to deliver integrated, whole-person care.
This collaborative, resident-centered model supports long-term wellness while making it easier to manage both chronic and acute conditions.
Why Residents & Families Trust Curana Health
Curana Health is nationally trusted and widely respected in the senior living industry. Its providers are not only experienced in older adult health, but they are also trained to offer care with compassion, patience, and respect.
Residents and families appreciate that Curana’s approach is more than just convenient—it’s personalized, holistic, and responsive. It allows individuals to receive high-quality medical attention in a way that supports dignity, independence, and overall well-being.
The Power of On-Site Health Services
Since the launch of the CLC-Curana Health partnership, Curana has completed hundreds of clinical visits across Someren Glen, Clermont Park, and Holly Creek. These visits include preventive care, chronic disease management, injury treatment, palliative support, and medication guidance.
The availability of 24/7 clinical access adds an extra layer of security for residents and peace of mind for their loved ones. With this continuous support, residents can avoid unnecessary hospital visits and experience fewer gaps in their care.
Because each of these communities is a Life Plan community—offering all levels of living from independent to skilled nursing—Curana is able to follow and support residents throughout their journey. Whether someone is transitioning from independent living to memory support or skilled care, the same medical team remains involved, ensuring true continuity of care.
This is the kind of healthcare our residents deserve—personalized, responsive, and delivered where they live. We’re already seeing meaningful results, and we’re just getting started.”
Angela Allen, Vice President of Clinical Services for CLC
