Lighthouse Senior Living at Ellicott City

We visited Lighthouse Senior Living at Ellicott City. It was a very warm and welcoming environment. The director, Alex, was outstanding. I liked that he knew all of the residents by name, and all of the residents seemed very happy there. It was clean. It didn't smell like a hospital. It seemed just the right size for us. It wasn't too big or too small. It seemed very well kept. The director, Alex, would be a good reason as to why we would go there. The one problem was the rooms are very small. The menus looked good, but we didn't try them.

We went to look at Lighthouse Senior Living in Ellicott City. The facility had all of the services we were looking for. It had the advantage of being very close to where we live. It's within walking distance, so that was attractive as well. The staff members there were very accommodating. We were impressed with the cleanliness, the facilities, and the staff that we spoke with. We visited a one-bedroom apartment as well as a suite. There were three different-sized rooms available to visit. The other thing we liked was that the facility provided the furniture. There were daily activities available to the residents. In addition to the three meals, there were snacks available as well. They have activities that address various interests. The residents have the option of participating or not, and there are many activities available. We were told that we could visit at any time. We could just give them a call and let them know we're on our way. We had 24-hour access if we needed to see our relatives, so that was very encouraging as well. The staff had been there for long periods of time, so their expertise and experiences are there in the facility.

It is very pleasant and nice. They appear to be caring with the patients. My mom is in their memory care unit. They have activities for residents to do, and they try to keep their minds busy. The rooms are nice. They have very big bathrooms with showers, closets, and shelves. They're good size, too. My mom has assistance when she needs it. The dining area is standard. They usually put a board up that tell the residents what they're having for their next meal. I like this place because I see that the people that work with Mom seem to genuinely enjoy helping their patients, and it is not just a job to them.
