The Village at Rockville-A National Lutheran Community has cared for seniors for over 125 years, dating back to 1890, so you'll find a long-standing sense of commitment and experience here. The community sits in a quiet, pretty setting in Maryland and offers several types of homes for seniors-cottages, single-story villas, and apartments-with different floor plans and payment choices. Folks can pick from independent living, assisted living, memory care, and long-term skilled nursing in a 160-bed care center, where about 80% of the rooms are private, and the setup puts people into small, friendly "neighborhood" groups, each with its own nurse manager, which helps the care feel more personal. Residents and their families come and go as they please because there's a 24-hour visiting policy, and the entire place welcomes pets.
The Village at Rockville serves people of all faiths, although it's a Lutheran-run, faith-based, not-for-profit Continuing Care Retirement Community, and there's a 150-seat chapel for spiritual programs, as well as a full-time chaplain for Bible study, worship, and spiritual care. The community offers a wide range of health and supportive services-you'll find assisted living, skilled nursing, long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, physical and occupational therapy, outpatient rehab, memory care, respite care, and in-home services, too. They also maintain a new memory support program for those who need special care, and provide Alzheimer's and dementia services. Health monitoring and communications systems are up to date, and there's always access to primary care and medical services nearby.
People who enjoy staying active get involved in regular activities, garden in the memory garden and gazebo, and spend time in lounges and gathering spots. There's also a major music enrichment program, various group activities, an Engage Center for staying busy, and quarterly meetings for planning with residents. The Village fosters a sense of community, letting people take part in local events, spiritual life, and hospitality, as well as social services, garden projects, and volunteering with local organizations. Housekeeping, meals, lawn care, and maintenance are handled for residents, giving them a simple, worry-free experience. Parking's easy with on-site lots, and you can join a tour to see the place and see how the many amenities-like social event spaces and wellness features-fit different lifestyles. After a 4.5-year upgrade, the facility's modernized, but it still honors a long history of care by making each resident's comfort and health a priority.
