Friends House Retirement Community offers nursing home, skilled nursing, assisted living, independent living, and continuing care retirement community services in Sandy Spring, MD. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while assisted living helps with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care. Having these care levels together can allow a resident’s care to change without leaving the community.
There are 24 beds. Friends House Retirement Community may be a good fit for someone who prefers a smaller community where staff and residents can get to know each other. The starting rate is $220 per day for a private room and $180 per day for a semi-private room, so the listed difference is tied to the room type.
Payment options are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Medicaid can matter when savings may not cover a long stay, while Medicare applies to short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence. Total nurse staffing is 4h 17m per resident per day, representing the combined daily nurse time allocated to each resident.
Pets are allowed, so a resident can bring a pet to the community. Friends House Retirement Community also lists activities, ArtSpace, Community Resources, and the Elephant Shop among its programs and amenities.
