Assisted Living Communities in Westminster, MD

"My mom's been there for a couple of months. So far so good. "

"Springhouse of Pikesville is very nice. The staff is good. My sister likes the food. So far everything is fine. The building itself is very nice. Her floor is very sunny. They have several different places where you can hang out without being in your room. They have a place where you can get your hair done, a game room, two cafes, and a computer area. They have activities that she can participate in during the day if she would like to. I think it's a good value for money. It's not as expensive as some of the other ones. But I think it's the same level of care. They have nurses here 24 hours a day, seven days a week. They have either a physician or physician assistant every day. They have physical therapy and occupational therapy. They also have outdoor areas when it gets warmer."

"Charter Senior Living of Woodholme Crossing was very airy. The atmosphere was very good. I liked the community. It seemed like a very pleasant place. I could see my wife maybe selecting that place also. The staff was helpful, friendly, outgoing, and answered my questions. The common areas were very pleasant. They were very open and airy. The rooms were adequate. I saw one that had a space that I could work with. I liked them."

"My husband and I stayed in Lorien Encore for respite. What I liked best was that the staff was wonderful there. I was able to do my medications, but my husband wasn't familiar with his medication, so they took over doing that. At first, it was rough. It was confusing, but they got it all straightened out, and it was fine for the rest of the weeks we were there. We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it was very innovative of the things that they served, but the problem was that by the time it came out of the kitchen, it was cold. They were willing to heat it, but then it would just have taken longer. The cleanliness was outstanding. They had people come in for yoga, different exercises, bingo, and craft activities throughout the day. They had a movie theater where they had documentaries you could go to any time during the day and watch a movie. They had a little cafe there. If you had guests come, they could go there, and you could have lunch with them in the cafe. We did get what we paid for, but it's so expensive. The place we were in had a living area and then a bedroom, and we had plenty of room, a nice big closet, a refrigerator, a microwave, and a sink in every room."

"My brother is at Woodholme Gardens. The staff were very friendly, very helpful, and delightful when I went in to take a walk-through. They're taking very good care of my brother and he is happy there. There are different levels of care. It's a very nice place. It's reasonable. They do run specials, so you just have to work with the director because there are specials that she can sometimes give to the families. My brother has a room, and he has his meals with everyone else. They come in and clean the room once a week, they do his laundry, and they help him with showers. So far, I'm very happy with the facility. He has only been there 10 days, but I haven't had any issues. When he has asked for something as far as maintenance or help with something, everyone has been right there to help him. The staff have been amazing. My brother said the food is very good. It smells good. I have seen nothing dirty. No dirty clothes lying around. Everything is always wiped down clean. With regards to activities, I've witnessed karaoke, and women and men getting pedicures. They have a barber shop there. My brother played bingo. They sit in their little chairs and do their little weights and stuff like that. And I saw arts and crafts going on one day. Everybody seems to interact. Even when they do the karaoke, the nurses and all the caregivers are all in the room sometimes with them singing and joking. It's got a very good atmosphere there. "

"We went and looked at Sunrise of Pikesville. The facility was nice, clean, and bright. It looked like the residents were enjoying themselves when we visited. The staff was very attentive. If someone had a call for assistance, they responded quickly, which was important to us. They had a nice menu. They had lots of choices for residents. The activities were also very nice. The rooms were nice. There were a lot of different options for size and different price points, which we liked. We especially liked the semi-private room option, which was more affordable for our family member. Every staff member we ran into was very friendly. They seemed to be interacting with residents in a way that they knew the residents well. Everybody was polite and friendly."

"My brother is in a unique situation. He had a debilitating stroke when he was younger, now at only 55, his health was in decline and he needed assisted living. The staff at Viva are so vibrant and joyful. They've treated my brother with so much respect and encouragement. They want him to get better in hopes that he may regain some independence - and it's working! They won't let him quit. This level of care goes beyond what is simply required. These are incredible humans who want the best for the people in their care. Dana the Medical Technician, Patrice and Daija the Resident Care Aides are the best."

"As a resident here for the last 4 months ,I have experienced nothing but kindness from the staff and residence here. I receive a written schedule every morning during breakfast with the daily activities that are planned for the day (which include but aren't limited to bingo arts and crafts and even movies that we all watch together). The meal menu is provided and prepared by an actual chef that keeps the meals flavorful and entertaining (there also substitutions made for dietary needs or if you just don't like what's on the menu that night). The nursing staff are knowledgeable and well-versed on conditions that I may need or require due to my medical needs and circumstances. The management staff are very quick to respond to any issues that may arise throughout the day and answer any questions that may come up."

"This facility is a very caring facility. Soma, who is the nurse, cook, etc who takes care of my Dad, does an excellent job and Tim, the owner/director and Charilyn makes sure all residents stay healthy which I have been so thankful for."

"My biggest fear of moving my mother into an assisted living home was that people would not take care of her the way I would. I was scared that the same level of attention and compassion me or my wife would give to my mom, I would not find any place else. All the things I was afraid of, I’m not afraid of anymore. Moving my mother into Kemia’s home has lessened a form of grief I’ve been experiencing. The care from Kemia and her staff is amazing. They feel like family. This is the happiest my mom has been in a long time. I go to bed with less worry. "

"I toured Dulaney Valley Assisted Living at Hunt Valley and liked that it was a house. I liked the nursing staff-to-patient ratio. I also liked how the rooms were clean and set up and how they addressed the fact that every patient was different because of their mental status. They were quite a little different, and it's not all cookie-cutter same thing for everyone. The head nurse there was very knowledgeable and informative. The place was very nice. I was in the bathroom, and in some locations, the pungent odor of urine was very predominant. You could not have that with this location."

"Lighthouse Senior Living at Ellicott City was a very nice place and had good amenities. The staff was very knowledgeable, and friendly, and gave us a good and thorough tour. The rooms were a little small but adequate. The facility was very neat and clean. The dining area was a little small but adequate. I didn't observe any activity because it was lunchtime."
