Assisted Living Communities in Potomac, MD

"Sunrise at Fox Hill was the most expensive among the facilities we have visited, but my mother liked it the most. I guess she liked the layout of it. It was a great place. The staff was great. They were very nice, and the residents seemed very happy. It was the nicest one. "

"Bartholomew House is a very loving, caring, comfortable, and intimate place because it is small. It is a little bit more like a larger home, and it smells very clean. The food is good, and it has a great caring staff. They really feel that it is more than their job, and they put their heart and soul into the residents. It doesn't have the extra amenities that some people might like, but they are extra caring with the residents which is the most important thing to me. The staff just goes above and beyond what you would expect. They communicate with me, and they reach out to me. They take the lead in my dad's care very proactively. You would not have to worry about your loved one there. "

"The Terraces at Tuckerman Lane was very nice. The apartment sizes were appropriate for seniors. They have activities and a calendar of events. I recall seeing a cafeteria. They have an area outside and sidewalks, and it was well kept. I was pleased. The facility was well-maintained."

"The staff at Sunrise of Rockville is phenomenal. We met with the activity coordinator and she's a true gem. She has been there for eight years. It is an older place, but there are some staff members that have been there the entire time. To me that really speaks about the continuity and that people want to be there. Several of the staff members referred to it as their home; like an extension of their family. It is also very evident with the quality and the attention that we receive from them. Sunrise of Rockville was dated, but it wasn't terrible. There did not have the bells and whistles that we saw at the other places; however, the people there were just precious. We had some interactions with a resident who was just a lot of fun, and very encouraging to my mom. It was a very pleasant vibe. Because of the people there, it's definitely a place we're still considering. They're very accommodating. They're very active. They were very open to new ideas and they had extensive activities scheduled."

"Sunrise of Bethesda is very open and fairly new. There is lots of light. A very friendly atmosphere. However, there are not that many grounds. There's a small patio area and kind of a border, but there's no extensive grounds or landscaping. The staff who toured us was very friendly, candid, and very nice. As we made our decisions and had questions, she was very willing to talk to us. We had lunch and it was fine, but I don't have extensive knowledge. It was just an ordinary lunch, it was nothing spectacular, but it was fine. For activities, I observed exercise in the morning, and I observed the activities director with a group, but we only stayed a few minutes. Everyone looked engaged."

"Modena Reserve At Bethesda was very nice. It felt like a luxury apartment building in the heart of Bethesda. The facilities were very nice. They have a movie theater. They have beautiful patios or decks overlooking Bethesda, and there's an outdoor space. Their dining room was nice, and it's up on the fifth floor. They have a cafe on the ground floor where you walk in for residents to have coffee or a pastry with their family or caregiver, which is kind of a nice feature. It has big windows to look out on the street. It felt much more like apartment living than assisted living. They have a beautiful movie theater as well. I didn't see much activity in terms of the residents being out. I saw they had plenty of activities, but I didn't see any of the activities in action. It seemed like a little less of a community vibe, but it may have been a timing issue. The person who was giving the tour may have given tours in the past, but she's not the salesperson. The salesperson was out. They had a different person who was very good and knew a lot, but she didn't have her sales pitch down. I didn't get quite as much interaction with some of the other staff. From what I could see, everyone seemed to be doing their job. They seemed to be kind to the residents."

"Beautiful, very new facility with art room, movie theater, gym, pub, formal living room with a grand piano, restaurant-style dining room and well-appointed rooms. Staff is attentive and friendly—from the receptionists to the nurses to the waiters and waitresses. The activities director is a standout. She plans fun events, including art sessions, music performances, theme parties, and daily exercises. Most importantly, she really connects with everyone on a personal level. The staff is excellent at communicating with the family, too. My father-in-law enjoyed the last year of his life because had this wonderful place. He was nervous to leave his home, but the experience at Colvin Run was excellent from the moment he arrived, and he immediately felt at home. We are eternally grateful for the experience."

"Modena Reserve at Kensington was a nice place. When I first stepped in (being that it's two years old), it was more of a contemporary place, which is fine for some people, but I don't feel as comfortable in that kind of setting. I don't have anything against it. It's not a bad entranceway, it's just more modern. I think they still had some work they wanted to do on it when I went. So, that's another thing. The staff were very nice and very friendly. I didn't get a big listing of all the activities that they have there, but they have activities. I just didn't go into details about that, but they told me they have social hours, cooking demos, some outings, and card games. They're about like the rest of the places. They feature all that. They're in the heart of Kensington. So, they're right by the railroad station and an antique village there."

"My dad moved to An An Assisted Living II. Where he is now is a wonderful place. They take care of the residents there. I go and visit whenever, whenever I want to is fine. They keep you updated on what's going on. So I have nothing bad to say about it. The staff, I rate them a five, however, there is a language barrier. It's a house and there are five residents there. My dad is on a peg feeding only. They do have activities, but I think the youngest resident there is 90, so they don't use it so much."

"Sunrise of McLean, from all other facilities, was the one we thought was the most suitable. Dad is on their dementia floor. The facility is very nice. The rooms are good, and the food is of very high quality. They do have many activities. They bring in people who play music, or they play games. I like that the staff are very attentive; they talk to my father a lot and interact with him. They are very, very friendly and very helpful. "

"I have moved into Goddard Comfort Homes. They have been very great. They have been good with everything. They've delivered everything they've said. The owners are very responsive. If you have any concerns or questions, they listen and act on it. The place is very nice. It's very small. They can only handle five people, so it's like living at home with a built-in cook, maid, and laundry person. My biggest concern was that if they have a doctor that I could reach easily if I got sick during the night or any time during the day, and they have someone on duty 24-hours a day. That's my main driving force. The place is clean. If I have ideas or suggestions, they'll listen to them. We're off to a great start. The staff is very good. The food has been good, too. I told them what kind of pasta sauce I want, and I think they're going to buy it. The facility has no steps and no elevators. It's very spacious, warm, and welcoming. I have my own carport for parking my car, which is an unexpected plus. I think their prices are extremely reasonable."

"The home was beautiful and much more spacious than I expected, with private bedrooms and even a PT room. The views were gorgeous, and the staff were so kind and accommodating. During my visit, residents were enjoying a book club, which gave the place such a warm and engaging atmosphere."

"My first impression is very good. There is a huge lobby, a dining facility right next to it, and there's a couple of game rooms. The place is decorated very nicely. The person who assisted me was very good. The dining area looked like a nice restaurant. The food was very good. They have a library, they have religious services, and they have a bus that goes to the mall."
