Seaton Towson

Went to tour this community for a loved one. Mice traps in the hallways, and went I went into a one-bedroom apartment, there was mouse droppings all over the floor. The women who toured me stated that the mice are gone, but then I heard a resident talk about a mouse in her bed. I left this community and took them off my list. DO NOT waste your time, it is dirty and full of mice

My mother is in Seaton Towson. The director came to the previous rehabilitation center my mom had been in. The LPN used her skilled nursing ability to assess my mother on two occasions, and the second occasion enables my mother to be able to be eligible to move to Seaton Townson. They picked her up. They also had me see a room in advance. They also asked for a very minimal deposit to hold the room. There were two rooms shown and they gave us the rationale for a first floor room versus a second floor room. In her case, we chose a larger room, which is on the second floor. They encouraged her to come out of her room and walk, and she needed to walk due to a lower limb injury. She arrived and everything was ready for her. I needed to replace the bed to be a hospital bed. Everything else, like a mini-refrigerator, brand new, modern room, modern bathroom with a shower and seated area, and bars were all available to her. Occupational therapy and physical therapy come in twice a week. She's also been evaluated for dementia, and there's a follow-up periodically to reevaluate as well. She is receiving meals three times a day in a community area that is very well set up and they don't eat alone. They have people that are selected to sit with and have conversations with. The meals are more of a cafeteria style, but they are much better than where she was. They also have snack time. If she needs to stay in her room for any particular reason or a special diet, they will bring the food to her. She just had her front bridge removed for a new one, so she needed cold and soft food, and she needed that in her room for a while. They do the laundry there, but there is a cost. They provide towels and whatnot. I've given her additional towels as well. Their hours of operation to the public where you can actually get into the facility and have someone pick up the phone is 8:00 until 5:00. When mother has appointments they have free transportation Mondays and Thursdays. They have a beauty area. They have many common spaces. It's an old barn that had been renovated. It's in Maryland, so it has that colonial feeling to it, but it's very bright. Everything is in golds and beautiful light tone browns and off whites. It's very uplifting. They're able to keep it clean. They keep the door locked, but there's always a person to let you in in their glass doors. There are lots of windows in the room and in the whole common space area.

The staff at The Maples of Towson was very good and very nice. A gentleman led me around, his name was Clint, and he did a perfect job of showing me everything. We went over a lot of different things. So, I got a lot of attention from him to see everything, and I did. There were a lot of trees from the windows. The porch was beautiful and they have a lot of flowers out and all. On the inside, everything was very well done and very clean. He took me to two types of one-bedroom apartments and they were small. It's an older building, but I liked how they laid out things. They have three floors, and when you get off the elevator, every floor has a sitting area with a sofa and chairs and all that. I liked that. They also have an activity room. It looked like they were having a good time.
