Review for Charter Senior Living of Annapolis
It is a great place to take someone needing memory care. They were the only ones that would take such young, strong, man in his 50s with some aggression.

The worst care facility by far
If you care about your loved one, do not put them here. They are severely understaffed leaving residents alone for hours at a time, especially after day shift leaves. Your loved one will not get the care you expect. The food is not a healthy diet. Residents are severely dehydrated. Management has either left for other jobs elsewhere or were fired. Take my advice - do not use this facility as a home for your loved one.

Excellent Memory Care Facility.
They are an excellent memory care facility for Dementia and Alzheimer's. They understand the disease and help families through it. When his other facility kicked him out because they couldn't deal with the dementia, Charter took him in and was not scared of the issues. This is not an assisted care facility with a dementia unit tacked on the side. Dementia is all they do and they are fairly good at it. Their staff and new director [name removed] also seem to have fun and enjoy what they do. That is very important in caregiving fatigue. I would recommend the facility to anyone looking for specialized dementia care.

Overall very good but room for improvement
Comments: Overall, pretty good! Recommend keeping a close eye on #4, (care services) if this drops to a 2 the family will be quickly looking for other solutions. Hopefully this has been addressed, but for a period of time, there was a burn pile in the back "yard" common area. A metal trash can/steel drum that was used for burning (sensitive) documents had tipped over and charred/half burned material was spilled out on the grass. I asked [name removed] wife how long it had been there and she said at least several weeks. That left a bad impression. Lastly, All very good things to say about the staff! Hope this helps.

Disappointed
The place looks good and has great layout for dementia residents. Most of the staff are very kind, but not all trained well w memory care. There is a HUGE turnover in staff and they are often severely understaffed, esp @ night. If your fam does not sleep at night or seems uncooperative w/meds, they label them belligerent and send them to hospital for "Psychatric" assessment". This will cost you $[removed] plus cost of ambo ride. They will require you to get 24 hr 1:1 private duty care that will cost you $[removed] hour, so they do not have to deal with residents at night. Our family was there for eight months and left based on $[removed] per month facility costs and $[removed] per month costs for 1:1 care. If they prescribe meds, have them ckd by outside med staff -may not be most current meds. They charge you when fam is moved out & in hosp for weeks. Look for a fac w long-term staff and staffed well at night. Pretty & clean is just not enough if you need memory care.

If your loved one ready for caring full time care, try this one
Very friendly very personalized treatment, good communication. They are keeping his entrance fee and holding it good for a year in case he needs to go back. He just basically was not ready for that level of care. The reason we gave the activities a 3 out of 5, is because our loved one has not given any real effort.

Review for Charter Senior Living of Annapolis
They are extremely well prepared to deal with dementia patients. Much better than facilities that have general assisted living with a memory ward.The staff is incredibly compassionate and knowledgeable. They have also facilitated the formation of support groups for the loved ones of the residents that have been extremely important to our family.

Highly recommend
We chose Charter Senior Living because they were an exclusive dementia care facility vs having a separate dementia care area. The staff were extremely helpful in getting my dad in and he was a difficult admission. They really worked with me. The executive director and main sales person were awesome. They have a new director [name removed] and she walked us through everything and made it an easier transition. They were all very compassionate.
I would recommend the facility to others.

Nothing but gratitude to the staff at Charter!
Charter Senior Living of Annapolis was great. We loved our experience and would recommend it to anybody who has a loved one that is in late stages of dementia. This is truly the appropriate facility to help handle loved ones in those late stages. The staff is so kind and caring, and they welcome family involvement in making sure your loved ones are properly taken care of in their state.

A Safe Place for a Hard to Place Family Member
They did a great job getting our family member a spot and have doe great working with a difficult person. They are friendly to the residents and the family. Very well looked after. He is not easy. They are firm but flexible. A wonderful head chef who seems to know all the residents, there likes and dislikes. Our resident seems to like the food. They have lots of activities and find ways to get most involved. The overall value was very reasonable

A patient safety nightmare!
Charter Senior Living is horribly understaffed! Executive director is clueless and plays the blame game! On [date removed], the facility was staffed with 2 CNAs and no licensed staff on site! Patients did not receive medication during that time! My mother (a hospice patient) did not receive her Morphine for 8 hours and was in extreme pain! Please don’t send your loved one to this place!

A Trusted Place for your Loved One
I visited my friend's family as they brought their father here. The facility was so clean and the staff was so nice. RSD [name removed] was so caring. She was friendly and caring, we felt like we were leaving [name removed] with another member of the family. I can't say enough great things about this nurse. Anyone would be honored to have her take care of their loved one.

A Fantastic Community
This is a fantastic community, my husband did very well here. He was here for a respite stay and everything went very well. He really liked it here, and all the staff loved him. I was nervous placing for the respite stay, but my friends and our kids said he was very well taken care of. This is a beautiful community, with very caring people. If he ever had to move to a community, I would use this one.

Wonderful care for my Mom
My mother has been a resident at Somerford for several years now and I love it! She is not the easiest person to please and she is happy and completely safe. The food is wonderful and never boring!( and they always have coffee and cookies for us when we visit)
The staff is cheerful and helpful.
Thanks to all who take such good care of the most important woman in my life.

Not happy
Somerford Place looks good from the outside looking in. Here's our breakdown: Cleanliness is okay. Food is pretty good. Activities are good. There's lots of walking space. But it is a very expensive facility. The care is very inconsistent because caregivers are constantly quitting. This is really disturbing. They have only one or two caregivers for each section of up to 16 people. Most are incontinent so don't get diapers changed very often. There is a lot of yelling. There is little team work and lots of confusion.

Not so good
The facility is laid out wonderfully for people with dementia. There are several very devoted caregivers and nursing team. Other than that, we have been disappointed at the rate of turnover in the staff and the crisis management style. The building is old and in need, although well maintained. The company that bought the facility is just concerned with making money. That is apparent after being there for a little while. There are other facilities that cost less and have more consistency.
