Twenty-three years on Gracefield Road in Silver Spring puts Riderwood Village in a different category than the newer facilities that dominate this region. It is a Continuing Care Retirement Community operated by Erickson Senior Living, with 275 beds spanning nursing home, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing. Prince George’s County is a car-dependent neighborhood (Walk Score 33), 7 miles out from Silver Spring’s center.
The numbers that matter most here: total nursing coverage is 4 hours and 54 minutes per resident per day, with registered nurses accounting for 1 hour and 25 minutes of that. Average length of stay is 79 days, which aligns with the facility’s intake pattern. Medicare and private pay are accepted; 203 of the 275 beds are currently filled.
Memory care has dedicated infrastructure. The Alzheimer’s unit is organized around three clinical levels, from mild through severe, rather than a single undifferentiated placement. Personal care assistance, transportation to medical appointments, chef-prepared meals, walking trails, and a salon and barbershop round out the resident experience. An active Resident Council and Family Council both meet regularly.
Riderwood Village is built for people who need a clinically substantial setting and want the continuity of a multi-level campus, with the staffing depth and institutional track record to match.
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
This home is ranked 12th out of 144 homes in Maryland for nurse hours. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 1h 25m per day | ▲ 72% State avg: 49m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 42m per day | ▼ 22% State avg: 55m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 2h 54m per day | ▲ 36% State avg: 2h 8m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 4h 23m per day | ▲ 25% State avg: 3h 31m per day · National avg: 3h 27m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 5m per day | ▼ 8% State avg: 6m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 1h 1m per day | ▲ 66% State avg: 37m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
