Morningside House of Laurel
5.0

The community is good, when I toured I was very happy with what I saw. The staff is friendly and introduced themselves to you as well as what they did in the facility and that made me feel at home. The security is good as you have to be buzzed in to get access to the memory care unit.

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

Cridge Home Care Assisted Living in Bowie, MD
2.3

My loved one really likes it here. They treat my loved one well. The food is good, according to my loved one. It is a nice place. There is no office staff, I interact mostly with the owner. I communicate with the owner, and that is the reason for the lower score. The staff is friendly, they seem to all be from Jamaica. The staff has turned over three times since my loved one has been in the community.
