The Right Place for Mom

After touring and talking to the staff at Somerford, I made this my first choice for my mother. I made the right choice. My mom is adapting well and the staff are kind, caring, always knowledgeable about my mother’s needs and progress.

Highly Recommended

Somerford House is a wonderful place for any loved one. My mother was a resident for 1-1/2 years and she couldn’t have been at a better place. The whole staff is very caring and everyone is treated like they are part of a big family. There is a wide variety of activities available for all residents. They can choose their own meals and the staff puts an unusual amount of effort to make everyone happy. The nursing staff is very caring and diligent. They facility is very clean, safe and well maintained. I highly recommend Somerford House.

Our families experience

Their staff on weekends is greatly reduced and many times you can smell all the residents there not being changed especially in evening hours. Cleanliness is needed at Somerford House.

Wonderful community

My loved one is a resident of Somerford Place. She is very loved by the caregivers and nurses. When I am not able to be there, I never have to worry about her well being. Each time I visit there is something fun happening.

Review for Somerford House and Place Frederick

Staff there do not change patients there very well on some occasions... hygiene for wheelchair dementia patients is bad at times with depends/adult diapers due to overload on staff. Staff in the memory care unit are less friendly than Sunrise at times. 50% it seems due to long hours, fatigue, or poorer English. Staff upfront are friendly in the front area and better people skills.

Mom looking for forever home

My daughter & I was given a tour of Somerford & Place, Frederick this past week. After seeing several other “Senior Homes” I found Somerford & Place to outshine the other locations by far. I loved having a choice of room size & good views. I was very impressed by the cleanliness & homey feel. No where on our tour did I detect that “nursing home odor. Very pleasant everywhere we went! ALL of the staff we saw was pleasant & friendly to us & very informative. I highly recommended.

Would recommend

We were given a tour of the place. The lady giving the tour was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. She even took over and pushed my mom in the wheelchair so we could see the place better! We were shown multiple apartment options and she explained what rent covered and what the monthly costs would be. I would highly recommend.

A New Home for my Dad

When we decided to move my dad from Gettysburg, PA, where he lived his entire life, I was filled with anxiety. Moving him to Somerford was wonderful! He feels like he is with family there. He loves the residents there, and we love the staff. They have many activities there to suit anyone. He is well fed too. I love that has access to physical therapy and occupational therapy there too. Somerford House was the right choice!

This is a good fit for my mom

My mom has transitioned well at Somerford House & Place Frederick she enjoys being among the other residents and socializing, taking part in several of their many activies as well. She also enjoys going to the dining room for her meals and the food is very good. I have just signed my mother up for the resident doctor program they offer as well. They also offer transportation for the residents to go shopping and on fieldtrips. I would have no problem recommend Somerford House to family and friends.

Very nice place!!

I have no complaints about the tour I had taken for my loved one at this community. The staff where very knowledgeable and made sure to answer any questions we had for them in detail. I liked that the facility was a little bit smaller and all of the rooms where about the same size, It was just not the right fit for my dad in the end decision.

Took Good Care of My Husband While He Was Here

My husband did well for the short time he was in this community. Unfortunately he needed more care than they were able to provide. However I was pleased with everything they did for us. They took good care of him, and his needs. It is a pleasant community. They provide nice meals, and offer good activities. They do a good job with the cleanliness of the community. It was a good experience overall, and this is a community I would recommend.
