Somerford House & Place Frederick
Somerford House & Place Frederick provides assisted living and memory care in Frederick, MD. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks while a resident lives in a studio or one-bedroom apartment. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone who may be at risk of wandering. Having both care types can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, since care can change without a move to another community.
The community has 52 beds, giving families a clear sense of its licensed capacity. Private rooms range from $170 to $265 per day, so the daily amount a family budgets depends on the rate assigned to the room and care arrangement. Five Star Senior Living operates Somerford House & Place Frederick. A Walk Score of 40 places the area in a car-dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride rather than a short walk. Pets are allowed, letting a resident keep a pet while living at the community.
