Winter Growth is a very nice facility, that truly cares about it residents/participants. The residents/participants receive great care. The staff are friendly and willing to help. The CEO/Director is always visible at the center. Personally, I really don't think you could find a center that provides better care for its participants/residents.

About Winter Growth
Welcome to Winter Growth
Helping Older and Disabled Adults to Celebrate Live
Winter Growth is a non-profit organization founded in 1979 in Brookeville, MD. Our mission is to provide community based services for older and disabled adults that support them in achieving their highest potential for independence, dignity, and life satisfaction. We are licensed by the State of Maryland to provide Adult Medical Day Care and Assisted Living. Our vehicles for the Assisted Transportation Program are certified twice a year for safety by the State.
At Winter Growth, we recognize that each individual has a different set of needs. We know that there are times when a nursing home is the best care solution. When an individual truly needs 24-hour care by registered nurses and on site physicians, the nursing home is often the best venue to receive this care. However, unwanted nursing home placement is sometimes chosen for lack of services that could support people in their home or in a small assisted living home.
The flexible menus of care services we have developed are designed to work individually or in combination to help older adults avoid unnecessary institutionalization. Often a nursing home could be avoided but for the availability of a service that can reasonably be provided in the community. At Winter Growth, we are committed to filling those gaps.
Our services are also designed to support families in their desire to continue to care for their family members in their homes or sometimes in one of our small family-style assisted living programs. Each of our services has the goal of promoting integrity, self-esteem, and life satisfaction for both older and/or disabled adults and their family members.
Services Include:
Adult Medical Day Programs, including:
- Activities and Care for Cognitive Alert Participants
- Activities and Care for Participants with Dementia
- Targeted Fitness Groups
- Nursing and Personal Care
- Social Services
- Meals and Snacks
- Transportation
Winter Growth’s target populations include older adults:
- Who are isolated, lacking social contact, mental stimulation, exercise, and proper nutrition.
- Who lack appropriate transportation to access medical care.
- Who suffer from age-related depression or long-term mental health issues.
- Who live with one or more chronic illness(es) that limits their ability to perform primary or secondary activities of daily living.
- Who require a secure environment with experienced staff and structured activities during the day and/or evening hours.
- Who require nursing oversight (less than 24 hours a day) for a chronic illness or disability.
