Located in Ellicott City, Maryland, Lorien Encore at Turf Valley is a skilled nursing and rehabilitation center set in a suburban, car-dependent location near Maryland Route 29. The community has been operating for 16 years and is owned by Jim Hummer. With 110 beds, it accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, giving families several ways to cover short-term rehabilitation stays and longer-term skilled nursing care.
The community’s clinical focus is on rehabilitation and skilled nursing. Total nurse staffing averages 3 hours and 44 minutes per resident each day; this level of staffing is robust enough to support hands-on care for post-acute patients. The home’s level of support makes it suitable for patients recovering from surgery or hospitalization, or for those managing a chronic condition requiring skilled oversight. Residents stay an average of 66 days, including a population that skews toward shorter-term rehabilitation and transitional care rather than long-term residence.
Parkinson’s Wellness is a specialized on-site program, so the community is a great option for residents with that diagnosis. The home’s respite care and hospice services can ease both short-term coverage gaps and end-of-life transitions. Rehabilitation services are also available on-site so residents won’t need to go outside for therapy appointments during recovery.
Rooms available range from private to semi-private options. Each has a private bathroom, and assisted living private suites have a kitchenette and bath, offering flexibility for residents at different care levels. Residents’ dining offers a restaurant-style model with attention to specialized diets.
Day-to-day life is supported by amenities such as a salon and spa, a movie theater, an on-site putting green, and a courtyard. Residents can access a wellness program and a seven-day weekly activities calendar to stay engaged. The home offers scheduled daily transportation, which can be helpful for medical appointments and family outings. Free Wi-Fi and cable television are also available.
Lorien Encore’s car-dependent location means family visits will require a car. However, its proximity to Route 29 provides convenient regional access, which may benefit families traveling from surrounding areas.
