Overview of Arden Courts of Kensington

Arden Courts of Kensington is a 64-bed memory care community at 4301 Knowles Avenue in Kensington, Maryland, serving the Montgomery County area. Owned by HCR ManorCare, the facility specializes in care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, providing a service model that encompasses dedicated memory care, assisted living, and short-term respite stays.

The Maryland Department of Health, Office of Health Care Quality, oversees regulatory compliance for the community. Current 2026 filings show the facility maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, and records indicate that no civil money penalties or payment denials have been imposed by CMS within the past three years. While specific occupancy figures and monthly pricing are not reported in the available source data, the 64-bed capacity is dedicated to a residential setting designed to support resident independence through secure, specialized spaces.

Support is provided 24/7 by a professional team trained specifically in dementia care protocols to manage the complex needs of residents with cognitive decline. The facility design utilizes a residential living model intended to foster a familiar, low-stress environment while ensuring 24-hour monitoring and safety. Because specific data points such as caregiver-to-resident ratios, licensed nurse hours, and comparative quality measures, including fall rates or psychotropic medication use, are not currently reported, these represent information gaps that require direct inquiry.

The community features secure indoor and outdoor spaces designed specifically for those with memory impairment, though specific lists of on-site amenities and dining program details are not publicly listed. Standard services for this care level typically include assistance with all activities of daily living, housekeeping, and meal service.

Shared common areas are structured to encourage social engagement while maintaining safety. Families must confirm the specific suite layouts and emergency call system features during an on-site tour, as these details are not captured in current reporting.

Those seeking specialized dementia care in a dedicated residential environment may find this community appropriate. Interested individuals should confirm Medicaid acceptance, current occupancy status, and the full inspection history directly with the Maryland Department of Health before making a placement decision.
