Somerford House & Place Hagerstown

Upscale place. But high priced

Im delighted to be able to share my thoughts about my stay at Somerford. Before I came, my husband was my caregiver and our daughters saw the need for more care and found Somerford for us. The staff and caregivers made me comfortable in my new home. Once settled, I started to enjoy the daily routines of exercise and therapy. Other days, we would enjoy bingo, bowling, educational movies and word games. Dont forget the good ice cream socials. HA! Good times were spent with residents each day either at activities or just visiting together. Somerford was good for me and I would recommend it.

I was impressed with Somerford Place when I was looking at facilities for my father who has Alzheimers. The most important thing I liked about Somerford Place was they have a seperate building for dementia/alzheimers residents. In my experience, when they are mixed in with asssited living residents they tend to get lost in the shuffle. Here they get the attention they need. The staff is very knowledgable and courteous. They have beautiful outdoor areas the residents can use as well as plenty of walking space for residents that like to walk. This was the best decision I made for my father. Yes, it is a little pricey but I feel that the extra money you pay vs. a standard assisted living facility is well worth it. I know my father is getting the care and attention that he needs. My dad is very happy and that makes me happy.

Somerford House is the top of the line in assisted living facilities! I highly recommend it to those searching for a facility that extends the highest quality of care to their residents in a professional yet personal manner. The staff at Somerford House not only treat each other like family, but all of the residents and their families and friends as family too! I have been blessed with the extra special professional care they extend to my mother and she is very happy and content staying under their care. They provide many various activities such as daily exercise classes, music therapy, bingo, cornhole, bowling and other various games, movie matinees, and various thought provoking and mentally challenging activities to keep their minds alert without stressing on each and every day that the residents look forward to. They also provide daily entertainment from performing artists in the tri-state area such as singing artists and groups, magicians, animal shows, and guest speakers to demonstrations and resident participation in pottery and various crafts. They transport the residents that desire to go on weekly excursions out in the community such as countryside tour drives, shopping trips, dinners in community restaurants and various other well planned trips. The nursing staff and caretakers do everything they possibly can to meet my mother's needs whatever they may be and always do so in a pleasant and pleasing manner. The expert therapy team exceeded my expectations and they have my mother gaining her strength back rapidly due to their professionalism and encouragement to my mother. The gourmet food is delicious, well prepared and served in an elegant dining room. It is a well maintained, groomed facility that is exceptionally clean. The entire staff at Somerford House go out of their way to accommodate the residents' desires and wishes. I am so thankful for my mother being cared for at the Somerford House because I can trust and be assured that she is well taken care of. Somerford House is the 'Home away from Home' that you are looking for your family member and if you choose Somerford House & Place, you will not be disappointed!
