Asbury Solomons

Asbury Solomons sits along the Patuxent River and has a relaxed, friendly atmosphere where seniors can pick from independent living apartments or cottages, or choose assisted living and memory care if they need it, and there are always trained staff around to help with daily tasks, medication, or whatever else comes up, so families don't have to worry. Folks who want to stay active can use the pool for laps, try kayaking or paddleboarding, or join in Evenings on the Quad, which means games, cookouts, and sunsets by the river, and there's always something going on with social, educational, and fun activities, so you never feel bored or out of place. The community tries hard to make things feel homey with nice dining areas and options for meals, plus both apartments and cottages have the kind of comfort you'd want in your own home, and if you need more support, there's a caring team for assisted living who help with getting dressed, bathing, and other personal needs, but they don't hover too much either. Memory care is set up for those with Alzheimer's or other types of dementia, and the staff knows how to give them attention in a safe place, while the skilled nursing section helps those who need regular medical care right there on-site, so nobody has to go far for treatment or rehabilitation after surgery or sickness. The place works like a continuing care retirement community, which basically means you can move between independent living, assisted living, and nursing care as your needs change, so you don't have to leave your friends behind or settle into a new place every time your health changes, and for those wanting to age at home, there's home care and hospice, plus caregiving services from Amada Senior Care, which helps families understand their options or how to file for long-term care insurance or veteran benefits. The folks running things like to keep everyone's spirits up but also pay attention to other parts of life, so if you want to do some oyster gardening or join a Go Green Committee for caring about the environment, they'll find a spot for that, too. The place aims for a Christian approach in care, but they don't press anyone about it, they just try to treat people kindly and make room for the whole family to visit and take part. Everything is maintenance-free so residents don't need to fix anything themselves, and there's support for those who want to age in place, meaning seniors can stay independent as long as possible and only add more help as they go. There's a simple gallery for seeing the community ahead of time, a form if you want to ask questions or set up a tour, and helpful sales counselors who go over what's available and answer questions without any pressure. The International Council on Active Aging gave Asbury Solomons a nod for wellness, so plenty of attention goes into exercise, social events, and making sure the community stays lively, while at the heart of it, the staff tries to keep things steady, friendly, and focused on what every resident needs.
