Kensington Healthcare Center sits at 3000 McComas Ave in Kensington, Maryland, and stands as a two-story building where people can get skilled nursing services, including both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care. The place provides skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy, along with wound care, hospice care, and palliative care for those who need extra support or have serious illnesses, and respite care is available as well for families who need a break. Rooms are offered in both private and semi-private setups, and there's always wheelchair access and ADA accessibility for those who need it, so everyone can move around easily with the onsite restrooms and accessible entryways making things more comfortable. The center runs twenty-four hours every day, has no age restrictions for who can live there, and accepts credit cards for payment.
The facility is part of the CommuniCare Family of Companies, which is a family-owned group known across the country for post-acute care, and they bring in the Mdics Rehabilitative Services LLC team for specialized therapy. There's a respectful and well-trained staff, including dedicated GNA team members like Hawa and Victoria, as well as people in activities, social work, and culinary services, and the team helps residents with daily needs while keeping the atmosphere home-like and supportive. Residents and families work together with the staff to make care plans that fit personal needs, helping everyone feel involved and safe. There's a focus here on emotional and physical well-being, not just basic care, and the staff works hard to be open with families about how things are going.
The center serves healthy, tasty meals tailored to what residents both need and like, taking care to consider nutritional needs, and there's housekeeping and dining services so everything stays clean and pleasant. Activities happen regularly, with options like exercise programs, live music during "cafe hour," holiday celebrations such as the Easter egg hunt, and group outings to keep everyone engaged and entertained. The goal is to help people live as well as they can, whether they are there just for a short stay to recover or need long-term support, and the team at Kensington Healthcare Center does their best to make sure everyone feels welcome, respected, and cared for in a setting that values both comfort and community.
