Somerford House Frederick sits in a quiet spot near a big pond and a lake, with lots of greenery all around and scenic lakeside walking paths where folks can go out for some fresh air or just enjoy the view. The community offers assisted living, memory care, respite care, rehabilitation, and short-term stays. The memory care neighborhood, called Somerford Place, provides care for people with memory loss, including dementia and Alzheimer's, in a safe and secure setting where staff help residents stay as independent as possible. The wide range of health services covers help with daily tasks, a strong medication management program, 24-hour nursing care, and access to physical, occupational, and speech therapies, plus the on-site Ageility clinic for specialized rehabilitation and fitness.
Accommodations include spacious studio and one-bedroom apartments, some with kitchenettes, living rooms, private bathrooms, walk-in closets, and even patios or ADA showers for safety and comfort. The community is pet-friendly and even has a dog park. Residents get housekeeping and laundry services, local transportation for outings, and visits from in-house doctors. Meals are served restaurant-style with programs like MyChoice Dining and several menu options, either in the main dining areas or the private dining room for small gatherings.
Amenities cover an indoor heated pool, outdoor pool, movie theater, library, beauty salon and barbershop, card and game room, community computer workstations, chapel, and a cocktail lounge or cafe for socializing. Outside, people can spend time in the community gardens, stroll to the gazebo, or relax beside the pond. Organized activities offer plenty of chances for social, educational, and spiritual engagement, group trips, exercise classes, and volunteer opportunities. Emergency call systems are in every unit, and the grounds have secure, gated entries. Staff update families regularly and welcome family participation in care. Somerford House Frederick aims to blend care and comfort, letting residents keep up their interests, enjoy group activities, and live in a home-like environment close to local hospitals.
