MALTA HOUSE FOR SENIORS PART OF VICTORY HOUSING, INC…read more The best decision I ever made was to arrange admission for my elderly sister to Malta House in Hyattsville, Maryland. She was living in the family home in Takoma Park, MD and was no longer safe and competent to live alone. I told her that she "needed to retire". She accepted that but with great anxiety. I spoke to her primary physician and she recommended Malta House. I was impressed as soon as I walked into the building. It was a great surprise that the supervisor, Sister Jean, was a previous patient of mine. She was a person that I respected very much. The current supervisor, Elisabeth Orchard, has taken the previous high standards up several notches. Her leadership style includes teaching the staff to achieve the highest level of caring, respect and compassion for seniors and especially for the difficulties of life for those who are losing abilities that they previously had. She leads also by by knowing exactly how care is given at any time and thus closes the loop between her teaching and implementation of those ideals. My sister was comfortable almost immediately after admission. Malta House emphasizes community, caring, compassion, cleanliness, and peace of mind so that social life and activity can be maximized. It is safe, spacious, and the food is fabulous since the head of food services previously worked as a chef on cruise ships. Most of all, my sister has piece of mind for the rest of her life. The facilities are amazing that there is so much in a space that still is cozy and home like. They have a beauty salon, library, resident pantry, 2 sitting rooms, one with a fire place and the other with a large TV, a fitness program, a book club, arts, music, transportation and shared space for parties and family visits. All is on one level and is accessible. The studio apartments are also spacious, comfortable, with large window that looks out on gardens and a patio. There is 24/7 staff that live in the building and provide emergency care if needed. The residents wear a small comfortable alarm system so if they leave the premises inadvertently, an alarm goes to the staff. Doors are locked to get in but not to leave of course. There are religious services available. My sister and I were not raised Roman Catholic. We were Presbyterians. But, the feeling there is clearly acceptance and respect of our beliefs and people of any denomination can be very comfortable. Assisted Living is not cheap! The cost there is lower than many others and much is achieved for the money that is spent. It's a good deal! My sister is happy there and considers Malta House to be her home.

I and the rest of my 91 year Mom's progeny are very grateful she decided to retire from New York…read more nearly ten years ago before Mom thought she was ready for a retirement community. She chose to buy into Collington Life Care Community http://www.collington.com/ [non-profit CCRC] in [Mitchellville/Bowie, Md] in suburban Washington, D.C. Right away Mom plunged into lots of activities, planted the garden around her gracious cottage, took exercise and literature classes from Prince Georges Community College, on Collington Campus, and made friends with other active retirees and the very caring staff. She didn't partake of birdwatching, vegetable gardening, swimming, nearby golf courses, and some other outdoor activities. She chose to take on leadership roles in the Collington community and delivered Meals on Wheels. http://keepingupwithcollington.org/ When she broke her hip she was received rigorous and effective rehab while temporarily resident in the health center. When we 'made her' give up her car she was able to get to the Metro, shopping, doctors' appointments, Kennedy Center, Arena Center, and more via the Collington shuttle. When she had a small stroke she again moved back to he health center to receive rigorous rehab. Now she is back in her cottage, this time with a few hours of aides to help keep up her activities. Now as we spend more time walking the halls and grounds with her it's so gratifying to encounter numerous friends among the residents and staff who cheer on her recovery. I wish such stimulating, safe, and nurturing communities would be accessible for the growing upcoming senior population.

My very active mother, from Annapolis, Maryland, entered the Collington Community at 84, 6 years…read moreago. She lived in a beautiful cottage where birdwatching, gardening, music, walking her dog and making new friends filled her days. Using Collington transportation she had season tickets for the opera, the symphony, Arena Theater as well as enjoying many other cultural events at Collington and beyond. My 3 siblings and I fell in love with Collington's embrace of our mother and willingness to allow us to fully participate in Mother's life. In many, many ways through the years it became obvious to us that Collington valued its residents and wanted to encourage family involvement. The fabulous Sunday brunches, instituted by the head of dining services, Eli Ayoub are one of many examples. On any given Sunday one sees dozens of families, including children, grandchildren, even great-grandchildren enjoying the brunch together, feeding ducks on the lake. In these past two years, after a nasty fall, our mother was confined to assisted living. The care she received on Chesapeake was always compassionate and respectful. We grew to love each and every one of her caregivers. Again, we were encouraged to be there as much as possible. When the final days arrived our large family did vigil for a week. Instead of encouraging us to limit our visits, Eli arranged for a large hospitality tray to be delivered outside

I was referred to Harmony at Enterprise by an associate of the directors. I emailed the director,…read moreper the associate, to express my interest in touring the property but never received a response. After a week, I went to the website and scheduled an appointment for a Saturday at 12 p.m. No one contacted me to confirm, so that Saturday morning I called to follow up. The receptionist said she saw my name in the system and told me to come on in. I arrived seven minutes early and was greeted by the receptionist, who handed me a packet of information and asked me to sign in. I waited in the lobby for about 15 minutes past my scheduled appointment time before the receptionist came over to explain that the manager on duty had not come to work and could not be reached. I thanked her for letting me know and left, assuming perhaps there had been an emergency. When I returned home, I went back to their website and scheduled another tour for the following Friday at 11 a.m. I even took the day off from work, thinking a weekday might be better. However, once again, I received no confirmation call or email. Two hours before the appointment, I called to confirm, and the receptionist again told me she saw my name in the system and invited me to come in. We arrived five minutes early and were warmly greeted by a different receptionist. She asked me to sign in and have a seat to wait for the manager. She was very pleasant--offering freshly baked cookies to residents and guests--and provided excellent customer service throughout. After 15 minutes, she informed me that she still couldn't locate anyone available for the tour but would go upstairs to locate someone. When she returned, she said she was unable to find anyone. I told her how much I appreciated her professionalism and that she had already gone above and beyond her duties. I explained the situation to her in full, and she was sincerely apologetic. She asked for another 10 minutes to try to reach someone, but by 11:35 a.m. she was still unable to find anyone. At that point, I thanked her again for her kindness and asked her to relay a message to her supervisor: it is extremely unprofessional that no one from sales or management came out to greet me or honor the scheduled appointment--not once, but twice. I took time off work and drove an hour from White Marsh, only to have my time and my family's time wasted both times, at Harmony at Enterprise.

THIS IS NOT A GOOD PLACE…read more Harmony may look nice, but they are intentionally misleading and do not genuinely care about your loved one. To them, residents are just a number and a check. If your loved one needs anything above Level 1 care, look elsewhere -- you will not get proper help with major needs.
