Montcare Bethesda

Montcare at Bethesda sits at 6530 Democracy Blvd in Bethesda, Maryland, in a quiet neighborhood with a two-story building that's ADA accessible and offers both private and semi-private rooms so folks can have a space that feels right to them, and it's got services for active adult living, adult day services, long-term care with skilled nursing, home health care, and hospice care, all under one roof, which means residents don't need to move places if their needs change, and you'll find independent living, assisted living, memory care, and home care, with specialized options for people who need therapy for recovery, short-term rehabilitation, palliative care, and hospice, plus there's memory care for seniors with those needs and a caring team of doctors, nurses, and licensed therapists that try to give everyone the attention they need, and some rooms have been renovated to be comfortable, with dining and housekeeping services so residents don't have to worry about every little chore. Montcare has a nurse staffing level of 3.28 nurse hours per resident each day and the nurse turnover rate is 30.4%, and it usually has about 104 residents, with 110 certified beds. Recreational activities, therapy programs, and a large gym help keep the body and mind active, while daily meals are served in a shared dining area. Montcare at Bethesda is for-profit and managed by Nachum Zager since September 2023, with ownership by Md3 Operator Holdco LLC and stakes held by Boruch Mermelstein, Dov Green, and Nachum Zager as well. It's important to know that inspection reports show 30 deficiencies, including resident rights issues where some residents weren't told about transfers or appeal rights in time, notices about bed holds during hospital stays were missed, there's one cited infection-related deficiency, and there were issues with food handling and sources for nutrition and dietary needs, so these are areas to consider and ask about. The building offers new amenities, cultural competency training for staff, and programs like Alterwood Advantage healthcare plans, which may work for residents with Medicare since there's a member portal and resources for pharmacy benefits and prescription plans. Hours run Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, so visits and questions about care can happen during those times. Folks looking for a place that combines different care services in one location, with options for therapies and a range of living choices, will find that Montcare at Bethesda's set up for folks with many different needs, though recent deficiencies and inspection history are things you'll want to talk about directly with the staff.
