Nursing Home Communities in Frederick, MD

"Coming from the Hospital to Autumn Lake Ballanger Creek, I was embedded with hope and deepest gratitude after being alive and now in the path to recovery. I was welcomed early every morning by a group of great multidisciplinary professionals, always warm and caring, positive and smiling and making the miracle of life and full recovery a reality. Thank you so much to everyone, you’ll be forever in my heart and soul. Maricela"

"My Dad was a resident for roughly 10 years. Overall, the staff was great, kind and loving. Like with any nursing home we've experienced, as he had been at a few prior, there's some ups and down and occassionally a staff member that he didn't like so much. With that said, for a reasonably priced nursing home option, they were great overall and I would recommend them."

"My mother moved into Odyssey Assisted Living at Montevue. It was fantastic, but she was there for only two weeks before she fell. She has a beautiful room and a big bathroom. It’s all accessible for the elderly, and she has a refrigerator and a kitchenette with a microwave. She has a big window that looks onto a patio on the first floor and three different living rooms that she can go to. She has a beautiful courtyard patio, a beautiful dining room with real linen, and she has a shadow box that they can put their own identity on. The food is not that good, but they offer 24-hour food all the time, and if you did not like the dinner, you can get your favorite chicken salad or hamburger, and that's a plus. They had an Elvis Presley impersonator and an outdoor picnic."

"My mom is in Citizens Care and Rehabilitation, so everything is fine. She hasn't been there that long, but we have no issues with them. They keep in contact with me if there are any issues or questions they have about her. I'm not sure how the other nursing homes run, but it's always good to know that they are keeping an eye on my mom, and you don't have to be there 24/7. The room is fine. They've got a nice place set up for all the residents. Regarding activities, they have something for them every day like bingo or they have somebody come in and sing. They have a nice program set up."

"Homewood at Frederick was beautiful. The backdrop was the mountains. They have a bunch of different accommodations. If you want to be in a little house, they have that, and then they have two sets of apartments. One was connected with assisted living, so you could be independent in that particular apartment or you could be assisted. The other building was called The Lodge, which is independent living only, and that was beautiful, too. It was very, very clean, very new, and very modern. The lady that showed me the community was very informative and courteous. The apartment was a very good size compared to some of the other ones that we had toured. Even the smallest one was a very good size. It has all the nice appliances, such as solid surface countertops and luxury vinyl flooring. It was nicely set up. They also have a pool, a patio on each apartment, another big large patio that is right in front of the main area, an exercise room, a yoga room, art classes, and a whole list of activities. For more active residents, they do trips/cruises once a year."

"My mother was a resident at Vindobona for almost 8 months this past year. She passed away in November, 2021. I and my family were so very pleased with the care she received while there. When she was in the process of passing away, we received such kind and loving treatment from all the staff. This made our situation so much better. From the receptionist, to the nursing staff, and all other staff members, we were so thankful for their kind and loving attitude toward us and our loved one. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone with an elderly family member who no longer can take care of themselves. A million thanks to everyone at Vindobona who provided the best care possible to my mother and to my family. This is a most loving and caring place."

"I would like to thank the rehab staff. They worked well with my 100 year old mother. She enjoyed them very much. They tailored her exercises to her needs and abilities. She enjoyed them all. The thing that she disliked was the pureed bread. I tried for 10 weeks to get it off her plate to no avail. "

"I like Buckingham's Choice. That was my favorite place, but it was too far away. The staff was wonderful. I tried the food. It could have been better, but it was pretty good. They offered a lot of amenities. They had a pool there. There was a lake on the outside of it. The bedroom sizes were good. The upkeep was very good. With regards to location, it's near restaurants, and it is not that far from Frederick General Hospital."

"This is the only place that I didn't like from all the places we've toured. It's far from where we live. It's not that I wound not recommend the place, but it's not the place what we needed for sister-in-law. The rooms were definitely big, but those are shared rooms and she was not interested in shared rooms. They look more like a hospital facility. The staff that toured us was very nice. She tried to help us out and gave us pointers. They just need to update a lot. "

"My husband was in Pleasant View for years until he passed away in 2020. It was a wonderful facility and my family still raves about the facility. From the business office, to the nursing care, to the cleaning staff, etc they were congenial, caring, and professional. I had no qualms about him being there. He was always clean and the food was good. I miss many of the staff."

"My mother lives at Fahrney Keedy. She has a wonderful, spacious 2 bedroom cottage that she loves. Staff have been wonderful, accommodating, and helpful. Due to COVID, things are restricted right now but she is kept up to date with newsletters and memos on a regular basis. The community drops off treats often. There is a gazebo, community garden, community center, gym available for all residents to use. The Independent Living Residents Association meets for ice cream socials, movie night, trips and outing into the community, and other events. There is a gift shop in the main building where items can be purchased. The home she lives in is maintenance free. Fahrney Keedy offers a beauty/barber shop where residents can get their hair done or trim with reasonable rates. The residents get together for book club, trips to Walmart, Antietam Battlefield, Red Bird Diner, and many other places. The price to live here is just right. The food is delicious and can be delivered to her home. Accommodations can typically be met. Staff are very helpful and friendly. You can tell they genuinely care. I'm glad Mom is at Fahrney Keedy! "

"My brother moved into Brinton Woods Health & Rehabilitation Center at Winfield. They offer rehabilitation, they have a dining area, they show movies, and play bingo. They can't go out right now due to COVID. Everything is going well, and he's stabilized."

"My experience at Montgomery Village Health Care Center has been great from my first experience walking through the door to leaving this facility. I would recommend my loved one coming back here again and again for rehabilitation. I would also like to recognize the Nursing Department and thanking them for all that they went through dealing with Covid and caring for my loved one. If I had to choose anyplace for rehabilitation or long-term care it would be Montgomery Village Health Care."

"We liked The Residences at Creekside. It was quiet and clean. We liked the way it was laid out. We saw a cottage, and the rooms were very nice. They're hardwood floors. The rooms were sunny. The area around it was nicely kept up with shrubs, etc. It was very nice. Because this is an independent living and a cottage, we would be doing our own food. They told us we could get food if we wanted to from the other part of the facility, but it's not directly physically connected to the building that we would be in. We were impressed with it. The staff who toured us was very helpful, not overly pushy or anything. She gave us the information that we needed. She gave us information that we might be interested in and she explained the whole place to us."
