Adventist Healthcare Kingshire, known as Kingshire Manor Assisted Living, sits about 2.6 miles outside Rockville, Maryland, and offers a calm, welcoming place for seniors who want comfort along with care. The community has a medium size, with space for 34 residents, and you'll find independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, short-term respite care, and even home care available, which means folks who start out active and healthy can stay as their needs change, and there's help for dementia, Alzheimer's, or when someone needs help with medical tasks after an illness or surgery. The building has studio rooms, each with air conditioning, Wi-Fi or high-speed internet, a kitchenette, telephone, cable or satellite TV, and fully furnished spaces, making it easy to settle in, and for those who use wheelchairs, there are accessible showers and ground floor units-it helps everyone move about safely.
This place lets seniors keep cats, which is nice, and there's plenty to do, with both indoor and outdoor common areas, a small library with books, computer access, exercise equipment, a gym, gardens, a beauty salon/barber, and spots for relaxing or gathering with others, plus residents run some activities themselves. You'll see a range of meals made by a professional chef, with restaurant-style dining and room service, and special attention given to vegan, vegetarian, low-sodium, gluten-free, and diabetes-friendly diets, and both the dining room and a bistro or café are there if folks want something different from time to time. Beyond regular meals, there's help right there for those who need incontinence care, medication management, diabetic care, and non-ambulatory support, and staff can give help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and daily activities, all with a 24-hour call system and supervision, so residents don't have to worry if something comes up at any hour.
Memory care services are on hand for those who face Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, set up with secure areas and programs to cut down on confusion and wandering, and there are mental wellness programs, organized and resident-run activities, cooking classes, educational talks, and light-hearted events like Wii bowling, art, or movie nights. The facility holds religious services for Catholic and Jewish residents and coordinates off-site devotional visits for those with other needs, helping people keep up with what matters to them spiritually.
Staff also manage housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning, and arrange for transportation and parking, which helps residents stay independent as they take part in community life or go to local appointments, especially since Adventist HealthCare Shady Grove Medical Center is close by. The place is known for being friendly and helpful, folks chat and gather in the shared areas, people move in with careful coordination, and there are plenty of ways to stay engaged both socially and physically, even for those who want a quieter lifestyle or prefer time in the garden or reading in the library. Seniors with VA benefits, including Aid and Attendance, can ask about ways the community supports veterans, and Medicaid and Medicare are accepted here, which helps families figure out the money side of things.
For people looking for flexible choices, Kingshire Manor Assisted Living offers options for independent living with rates starting around $1,900, moving up with care needs, and older adults who need a short stay for recovery or to give caregivers a break can find respite care as well. The overall goal is to provide a safe, comfortable living space with dignity and independence for each resident, where both long-term and short-term care have the same focus on kindness, respect, and making sure everyone feels at home.
