Lorien Mt. Airy

My parents moved to Lorien in February. Nell, the activities coordinator, is worth her weight in gold. She knows all of the residents by name and plans a variety of wonderful activities. There is a calendar each month that my mother references daily to be sure she does not miss anything! Nell is also open to new ideas! My father has Alzheimer's and there are many activities he can participate in too.

What a wonderful place! Our church is very active in visiting local seniors in nursing homes and assisted livings, and we always get a warm welcome and appreciation from the staff and residents. We always look forward to going back again.

I have worked in the Nursing field for over 15 years and I worked at this facility 'assisted living' is by gar the worse ive evwr worked for. Assisted living with weight bearing residents hoyer lifts resisents that fell every 5 seconds. 15 residents per GNA. 80% either total care or a hoyer lift or didnt know where they were. Not a locked down unit because it was suppose to be assistes living. Residents sneaking on the elevator. 10 of your residents needed to be fed This is NOT assisted living and Kim the AL manager is a racist issshhh. She did not care about her staff pr the residents. Only filling the rooms because of course AL meant private pay. So money talks! This place is a joke. If you want to work at a nice place or put your loved one somewhere nice Spring Arbor is amazing. Just opened a actual AL facility in Frederik Insurance 100% paid by employer!! Double pay on holidays!! Your bday off paid and 11 paid holidays a year. By far the best place in Frederick!! Lorien is terrible. Kim and susan are a joke!!

Dad was there for Rehab after a fall at home, then he went to the assisted living there. It was very clean and everyone was so friendly and genuine, from Chuck in admissions to Alvin the bus driver. I would highly recommend.
