Overview of Spring Arbor of Crofton

Spring Arbor of Crofton sits in the Crofton Mews neighborhood, at 1495 Riedel Rd in Crofton, Maryland, and it’s operated by Spring Arbor Senior Living. The building is single-story, holds 93 beds, and has been running for 7 years. Rooms come in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom sizes, ranging from 355 to 632 square feet. With a Walk Score of 19, this is a car-dependent spot. You’ll want a car for most errands, since there isn’t much to walk to nearby.

The community runs a dedicated Alzheimer’s unit split into mild, moderate, and severe levels, so care can shift as a resident’s needs change instead of forcing a move elsewhere. Licensed nurses and CNAs staff the building to handle both medical support and day-to-day assistance.

Respite care and short-term rehab are both available, which matters if someone just needs a few weeks to recover from surgery or an illness rather than a permanent placement. On the other end of the spectrum, hospice partnerships with AccentCare, Gilchrist, and Hospice of the Chesapeake mean end-of-life care can happen right where a resident already lives, instead of another transition.

Pets are welcome, which is a small thing until it’s the thing keeping someone from moving. Transportation services and fitness and recreation programming round out daily life outside the unit itself. Room costs run $250 a day for a private room and $275 for semi-private.

Spring Arbor of Crofton is a community with a fairly wide range built in: short-term recovery on one side, full-spectrum memory care on the other, and hospice support bridging the end of that range.

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Maryland?

Assisted living in Maryland supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Maryland?

Assisted living in Maryland is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Maryland Medicaid cover assisted living?

Maryland Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Maryland) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 812 assisted living facilities in Maryland. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Maryland?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Maryland, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Maryland?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
