Apple Blossoms Assisted Living

Apple Blossoms Assisted Living sits in a quiet Silver Spring neighborhood and offers an independent but supported lifestyle for older adults, and the place has private and semi-private rooms, some with kitchenettes, where folks can settle in and call it home, and you can find gardens and outdoor sitting areas with lush plants, which make for a calming place to relax or walk. The building is a single story and the facility's been owned and operated for eight years by Odette Rodney, who has over fifteen years of healthcare experience, and you'll find staff on duty 24 hours a day, including personal care assistants, specialized staff, and a part-time nurse. You'll get daily living support, like bathing and medication reminders, along with nutritious, home-cooked meals and snacks served three times a day, and there's room service and communal dining if folks want to eat together or in their rooms, and there's also help with laundry, linen changes, and housekeeping. Apple Blossoms offers residential care, respite care, and adult day care under programs like Apple Blossoms Residential Care Home, Apple Blossoms Respite Care, and Apple Blossoms Adult Day Care, so options are available for both long-term and short-term stays, and the plan of care is always tailored to the needs of each person. Residents can take part in planned activities like arts and crafts, music, scheduled outings to restaurants and movie theaters, or neighborhood walks, and there are group recreational programs and devotionals for spiritual needs, and folks often say the atmosphere feels close-knit and friendly, because the facility tries its best to treat everyone with dignity and respect, aiming to make residents feel like family. Health services include hospice care, on-site mobile dental, X-ray, and lab services, visits from Holy Cross Hospital, a doctor on call, visiting podiatrist, and different kinds of therapy like physical, occupational, and speech therapy, and nurses handle RN health assessments and geriatric psychology consults. The community has a secure, purpose-built memory care section set apart for residents with dementia or Alzheimer's, and there's technology like alarm bracelets so staff notice if anyone leaves the community, plus support with assisted transfers, including both mechanical lifts and standby assistance for folks who need help moving safely. Apple Blossoms handles diabetic monitoring, incontinence care, and can help with other health needs like G-tube care, and the staff's used to caring for people with different health challenges, including those who aren't able to walk on their own. Residents can use WiFi and cable or satellite TV in their rooms or the common areas, and there's guest and resident parking for visitors and people still driving. The place allows pets, has wheelchair-accessible showers and full tubs, and the memory care section is secure for safety. Apple Blossoms is licensed by the state and county (license 15AL0496-B) as a Level 3, five-bed assisted living residence that welcomes both men and women, with an option to accommodate only women if that's requested, and everything's based on providing support while keeping as much independence as possible.
