Discovery Commons At Wildewood sits in Maryland and offers three main types of care-Assisted Living, SHINE® Memory Care, and Respite Care-so people get help that fits their needs, whether they're looking for support with daily tasks, extra help after a hospital stay, or more help because of memory loss. The place has private and companion suites named Aristocrat, Imperial, Manor, Monarch, and Nobel, each with its own bathroom, large closets, climate control, safety features, and enough space for comfort, although SHINE® Memory Care suites don't have kitchenettes. Residents find furniture already in place, which makes moving in easier, and pets can join, as long as they're not small dogs. The setting feels homelike and cozy, with elegant common rooms, fireplaces, a welcoming porch with wicker chairs, a peaceful courtyard with a water feature, and organized neighborhood-style areas for visiting or quiet time.
Support staff includes nurses, caregivers trained in memory care, housekeepers, and therapists. There's help for bathing, dressing, medication, and more, available day and night. Along with housekeeping and maintenance, residents can see specialists right at the community for podiatry, physical therapy, occupational therapy, hearing checks, and dental hygiene. Discovery Commons keeps residents active with games, hobbies, outings, celebrations, and different fitness and wellness programs that work toward supporting the mind and body. People can eat with others in the Sensations Dining room, which serves up meals meant to be both healthy and appealing, including sensory dining for folks with memory issues. Special programs like Ambassadors Club, Dimensions Health & Wellness, and Expressions Concierge let people stay involved and handle chores and appointments.
Residents come and go with the help of scheduled transportation, so it's easy to visit shopping centers, restaurants, or nearby state parks. Veterans can benefit from a special program, while the community's SHINE® Memory Care neighborhood remains secure to help reduce confusion and prevent wandering for those with dementia. Housekeeping, linen service, and meal prep take the burden off residents, and maintenance crews handle repairs. The building has handicap accessibility, Wi-Fi, and a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces surrounded by scenic beauty.
Apartment homes have floor plans from 301 to 353 square feet, with five choices, offering space while making sure everything's close and safe. The atmosphere is friendly, and people are treated with dignity and respect, whether they join for a short-term Respite Care stay or move in full-time. Discovery Commons At Wildewood holds a state license (18AL0020-B) and has won a few awards for its care and resident engagement, and the staff encourages people to come see the community for themselves before deciding where to live.
