Independent Living Communities in Dundalk, MD

"I went to look at The Hamlet at Queenstown. The facility was well-run. The staff was very courteous, friendly, and accommodating. The amenities and the facilities were very nice. If my mom only needed assisted living, it's a nice place. The kitchen was very clean. Nobody was expecting me to come, but the facility was extremely clean."

"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."

"I toured the Heritage at Augsburg. I like the inside of the community. I met four staff members, and all of them were very courteous, kind, and professional. They walked me around, and they answered my questions. I was very happy with them. We looked at the cafeteria through the door, but we did not go in. They didn't offer any food, but they said they had a food plan. I think it's $350 a month for you to eat and use the cafeteria. Outside, the grass was well cut, and everything was clean. It was easy to park, and it was easy to find, too. The rooms were very clean. I used their restrooms twice, and they were very clean. The waiting room was quiet and neat. If you didn't have a mask for COVID, they had a whole box for you. The receptionist was very courteous. The tour guide was very friendly and helpful. They have a weight room, an auditorium, and a theater. The rooms looked nice. They're a good size. I was not able to look at a two-bedroom apartment, but they have a one-bedroom apartment."

"I'm on a waiting list for the Waterfalls of Catonsville. They're redoing a wing of the building. They were very welcoming and I like that it's more of a home feel of an environment. That's what a place where my mom used to live was like. It's a smaller facility and they only have a limited number of residents, so they can get more care. There were always people with the residents. Even if they were in their bedroom or if they were in the common areas, there was always someone with them. The facility was nice and clean and all the people were clean. The staff was very nice and very welcoming. The room was more like a small bedroom with a bed and a dresser. The room wasn't as large, but the common spaces were large. They were doing art when I was there. They had a courtyard and they do activities in the dining room when it's not dining time. It's more like a multipurpose room. It used to be an old mansion that they've turned into housing. There are no long walks. They back up to parks, so they can walk in the park. They back up to a wooded area. They had their own chef."

"I toured Sunrise of Severna Park. It's lovely and very well organized. They have food provided twice a day. They have lemonade or cookies out for the residents. The independent living is within the same building, and everything about it is extremely nice. I could live there tomorrow. They do not have a balcony, but the units were very nice. The grounds were very nice and very well-maintained. The staff who gave the tour was very organized, nice, and knowledgeable. They provide a shuttle to go to the YMCA for swimming, and that's really important to me."

"I choose Arden Courts of Pikesville for my wife because they treat dementia patients only. The rooms are very nice. They are an average size. It has a very congenial environment. The staff is very good. My wife seems to like the food. She never complains. They have activities like bingo and sing-a-longs. I like that it is a locked down facility so you can't go out. The security is very good. "

"I toured Regency Crest. The community seems to be very nice and well-secured. It's quiet. The lady who assisted me was very polite and very knowledgeable. The facility was in very good and excellent condition. The rooms were a little bit tighter than I had wanted because I knew some of my friends would not be able to get in there."

"My dad moved into Evergreens at Columbia Town Center. The facility is very well kept up. There are some younger, older people. Everyone's very friendly. There are lots of good common spaces and activities. There's a pool, a hot tub, and grounds outside for you to sit and hang out. There's also a grill, so there are things to do when people come to visit. The staff is fantastic so far. They are very responsive. There is no dining area. The community organized bingo nights. They have music, movies, and water aerobics. It was very reasonably priced. The other thing that's worth noting is that it's right in Columbia Town Center, so there's a lot of good stuff nearby and attractions."

"My mother in law has been in care with this Access Home Care. They have taken excellent care of her. The home is always clean and the staff is very friendly.. They have taken excellent care of her. I would recommend them for elderly care."

"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."

"I toured Harmony at Enterprise. I could move in there tomorrow. It's wonderful. The gal who gave the tour, Apple, was delightful and organized. You go into her area, and she fully explains everything, then takes you on a tour. It's a newer facility, and the grounds are five. Everything about it sounded really good. The apartments were large, nice, and bright. They had lots of activities for the people."

"Resilient Care Assisted Living was very clean and very organized. They had the menu up of what they would feed the residents. The staff was very nice, very pleasant, and very welcoming. The manager owner herself is a registered nurse. She and her husband own it together. They also have another manager on staff, who's also a registered nurse and I like that fact, and the fact that they want to be involved and they want to know all the information. They keep you involved. I met other residents and they seemed very pleasant. They seemed like they loved being there. They call their place home. If one of the residents can go and come as he pleases, he just has to be back in by a certain time, just let them know where he's going. I like the fact that they keep track of everybody and they let you know everything that's going on. They encourage families to always come and visit. It was very clean. They had ramps throughout. The few little steps they had, they had a chair lift for those steps to be able to get residents up and down the steps. The staff showed me the bathroom areas, and they were very clean and sanitized. She had sanitization products all around to keep the property nice, clean, and sanitized."
