A heartfelt thank you to Somerford — a good facility with heart!!! Moving my mom into an assisted living home was one of the most difficult decisions I’ve ever had to make. At first, I struggled with the idea of her not being at home, and I didn’t feel entirely comfortable. But now, two years later, my perspective has changed—and for the better. Somerford has proven to be the best facility, with some standout strengths that truly make a difference. While no facility is without its challenges, what stands out about Somerford is the staff’s commitment to doing their best and their willingness to go the extra mile for residents. The team is dedicated, compassionate, and capable. Knowing that my mom is in their care gives me peace of mind that I didn’t have in the beginning. They manage her medical, personal needs, and overall well/being with professionalism, compassion, and kindness. One of the biggest highlights is their phenomenal Activities Program. It’s far beyond your standard arts and crafts. The staff go above and beyond with themed events like the unforgettable Water Day, live concerts, STEM for Seniors, and special outings—including a visit to the White House and Motown Christmas at the Weinberg. Who does that? It’s truly impressive and shows how much they care about keeping residents active, engaged, and joyful. I want to sincerely thank everyone who has helped my mom feel comfortable enough to consider Somerford her new home. From the friendly and competent front desk staff to the hardworking caregivers, pharmacy techs, nurses, dining team, the onsite hair salon and doctor visits, transportation, housekeeping, and maintenance crew, and all the behind-the-scenes staff—it’s your effort that makes Somerford a great place for our loved ones. Thank you for giving me the reassurance I never thought I’d have when we first made this move.

Somerford House of Frederick is a wonderful place for any loved one. My mother was a resident for 1-1/2 years before her passing and she couldn’t have been at a better place. The WHOLE staff is very caring and everyone is treated like they are part of a big family. There is a wide variety of activities available for all residents. They can choose their own meals and the staff puts an unusual amount of effort to make everyone happy. The nursing staff is very caring and diligent. They facility is very clean, safe and well maintained. I highly recommend Somerford House.

As my mother-in-law began experiencing difficulties with her health, requiring ever increasing nursing and day-to-day assistance, my wife and I began researching and visiting facilities. When we arrived at Somerford House we immediately sensed a happy, warm environment. Our decision was made, and we never regretted that decision. It was the best decision we made about her remaining time. My mother-in-law was treated like a Queen. Her time there was happy. Her care was excellent. The staff was amazing. The genuine love and caring of the caregivers, kitchen staff, and other residents made the end of her life wonderful. Love the staff!

My mother was at Somerford House a little over 9 months before passing. My family said it was the best decision ever made on behalf of my mother. The staff was attentive, professional and caring. I visited every day and I witnessed many lovely moments, from housekeeping, dining, caregivers, administrators, social, transportation, maintenance and nurses. They are definitely a team. My mother had daily visits from the staff to chat and check in. They made a point to know my mother needs, not only medical, but they know her as a person.The staff made my mother feel like a million bucks and they treated her with kindness and respect. Somerford House is the best home away from home.
