Overview of Autumn Lake Healthcare at Oakview

Located on Barker Street in Montgomery County’s urban area, Autumn Lake Healthcare at Oakview is a skilled nursing home dedicated to short-term rehabilitation and ongoing long-term care in Silver Spring, Maryland. Owned by Oakview Holdco LLC, it takes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families multiple ways to fund care. The facility serves around 138 residents with a current 84.2 percent occupancy rate.

The home provides 24/7 nursing care averaging 3 hours 44 minutes of nursing support per resident day, delivered by a team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nurse aides. That level of diligent staffing ensures consistent support all the time. A nurse practitioner works on-site, and the facility brings in consulting specialists: a psychiatrist, a wound care specialist, and a physiatrist (a physician focused on physical medicine and rehabilitation). This clinical depth makes the community well-positioned for occupants convalescing from serious health events or managing complex care needs. Clinically, the home’s programs underscore recovery and restoration. It offers specialized tracks for stroke recovery, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, joint replacement recovery, and orthopedic care. Physical therapy, speech-language pathology, and respiratory therapy services exist on-site, staffed with licensed therapists and technicians. The facility also delivers palliative care and respite care, broadening its reach to residents and families with different objectives. The typical stay here is about 129 days, reflecting the mix of post-acute rehabilitation residents who remain weeks to a few months and longer-term occupants staying for ongoing nursing care. Private pay residents, about half of new admissions, typically stay around 27 days. Medicare and Medicaid residents represent roughly 29 and 21 percent of admissions apiece, and the home takes three forms of coverage. Daily life is anchored by a dietitian, on-site dental services, mental health services, and a full activities and recreation program. The facility has an active Resident Council and Family Council so that occupants and family members can join discussions about policies, care quality, and community life. The neighborhood around Autumn Lake is somewhat walkable. Some errands and services are then reachable on foot, but most travels need a car. The home sits about 2.3 miles from Silver Spring’s city center in an urban, residential setting convenient to family visitors.

Overview of Autumn Lake Healthcare at Silver Spring

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Silver Spring, located at 2501 Musgrove Rd in Silver Spring, Maryland, functions as an independently owned entity operating under the Autumn Lake Healthcare licensure. The organizational structure encompasses a multifaceted care spectrum including nursing home services, skilled nursing, memory care, and hospice care. The facility manages both short-term rehabilitation and long-term residency requirements within a single systemic framework.

The recorded occupancy rate of 93.4 percent serves as a primary data point for families to analyze. This high utilization rate suggests that availability is structurally limited, meaning that the timing of a placement request is a critical variable in the acquisition of a bed. The average length of stay is calculated at 118 days. This duration reflects a logical distribution between post-acute recovery patients and those requiring permanent long-term care.

The memory care subsystem utilizes a closed dementia unit. This architectural choice ensures a distinct physical separation from the general resident population, which provides a more controlled environment than a loosely integrated program would offer.

From a clinical perspective, the facility maintains a robust internal infrastructure for physical, occupational, speech, and respiratory therapies. The scope of medical management is quite comprehensive, including intravenous therapy, tracheostomy care, wound management, and orthopedic recovery. Additionally, the system accounts for complex needs such as stroke recovery, diabetes management, total parenteral nutrition, and bariatric care alongside palliative and hospice support.

The staffing model provides a total of 3 hours and 31 minutes of nursing care per resident per day. When broken down by role, Registered Nurses contribute 32 minutes, Licensed Practical Nurses contribute 54 minutes, and nurse aides provide 1 hour and 55 minutes of direct interaction. Financial input is accepted through Medicare, Medicaid, and private payment channels. The facility possesses a Walk Score of 16, which indicates that the surrounding environment lacks the density for pedestrian activity and necessitates motorized transportation for any off-campus requirements.

For families evaluating options in the Silver Spring region, this facility presents a dense concentration of clinical services ranging from rehabilitation to hospice. The high occupancy metrics serve as a reliable indicator of sustained demand within the local healthcare market, suggesting that the facility is a significant node in the regional care network.
