My grandmother moved here last year when her condition required a higher level of care then could be provided in the home. From the staff, to the food, to the community itself, it has been a wonderful experience and I wholeheartedly recommend Roland Park Place for your loved ones.
My grandmother is a resident of Roland Park Place and every time we speak she always has pleasant things to say about the workers and the daily happenings of the place. There's always some new fun activity they get to do to sharpen their brain and mobile skills. I always hear excitement and warmth in her voice which definitely makes me feel more comfortable that she's there. My dad finally made the conscious decision and also obviously asked her if she would like it better in a retirement home. Before this she'd just be at home alone while everyone was out working or on business trips and it would kill me to know that if something were to happen and no one was there to help her or prevent a serious thing from happening it would be our felt. Not a good feeling to have and I'm glad it never resort to that. Now she has a large beautiful apartment with a great view and a whole lot of new friends to talk to and hang out with. I'm glad she's having such a great time here.
My father is in memory care at Roland Park Place. It is a wonderful place with cheery staff, beautiful rooms and very appetizing meals then some other facilities! The care there is very good and the staff are very caring, they are almost like family to us. Also, the grounds at Roland Park Place are beautiful with lots of trees and it is like a park setting. There is a physical, occupational and speech therapy center that is very good! There are activites like bingo, noodle ball, exercises, at the movies with popcorn, sing alongs and other activities to keep them busy. To conclude, it is a very good place for an elderly person, I would consider being there myself when I am elderly. When I walk into the place the people there make it feel like home and a royal home at that!
My inlaws were at Edenwald and my husband said putting his parents in that place was the beginning of a downward spiral they never recovered from. The staff in the assisted living section were happy doing nothing and not helpful when asked to do anything. My father-in-law had to be put in their "memory care" section which was like a scene from "one flew over the cuckoo's nest". The patients were basically warehoused in their rooms while the head nurse stayed in her office with no windows to see out into the common room. Patients not engaged at all. My husband got them out of there as soon as I discovered how bad it was...
