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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Maryland

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.

Does Maryland Medicaid cover memory care?

Maryland Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

How do I choose the right memory care community 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.
