I became familiar with Lorien in March after my Aunt fell and injured herself and was not discovered for 6 hours. The decision was then made to not let her live alone. Well let me say the Lorien has been a God send. ALL the staff I have encountered are professional, very nice and always there to help. It all started with Gemia and Melissa in Extended Living intake and has been amplified with the professionalism of Amiris who has moved on to the Activities Department and Shante who were the first to greet me upon my arrival. Jason in physical therapy is very dedicated and good at his job. He was able to inspire my Aunt to participate more in therapy and the results are paying off. The real heros are the nurses that monitor my aunt and others. They communicated with me in helping my aunt adapt to the new surroundings. So to conclude if you want great care for your loved ones Lorien in Elkridge is where they will benefit from marvelous care. Tell Kevin the Administrator hus namesake Kevin sent you.

Lorien Elkridge took wonderful care of my aunt. Each time I visited her I was greeted with a smile from the ladies at the front desk. Everyone in the office was helpful in getting paperwork completed and arranging follow-up care once she was released. I appreciated knowing that she was well taken care of. The facility is clean and well maintained.

We had an excellent experience at Lorien in Elkridge. From the front office staff to every tech and nurse who saw my grandmother, everyone treated her with kindness and respect. Tracy at the front desk was always warm and welcoming whenever we visited. Franklin was a wonderful tech who made my grandmother feel safe and well cared for, and Angie did a fantastic job bringing a smile to her face each morning. Sheila and Fran were also wonderful with her. The physical therapy team provided great support and made the transition from rehab to home as smooth as possible. We could not have asked for better care and highly recommend Lorien!

From the tour to my dad’s actual admit date, Admissions Kelli and Chante’ were super helpful. The ladies were very professional and knowledgeable. We really appreciate being heard. The receptionist, Amaris was the most helpful and bright person I’ve come across in a long time. Her ability to be bubbly while remaining professional was a God send! Also would like to express my gratitude to Zelda Shields-Scott it’s not often you come in contact with a business office manager that is pleasant, knowledgeable, patient and willing to assist with business and personal matters.

In the past two years my wife has needed to go into a Rehab enter. The first time was two years ago after she had back Surgery. They put her in a facility near where we lived. The facility was nice and seemed to be well equipped but seriously understaffed. It often took a half hour to an hour for an aid or nurse to respond to her call requests. Facility okay, staffing an issue. This time she after having fallen many times in our unit she was hospitalized, They decided to send her to a Rehab Center in Anne Arundel County. This place, though highly rated by Medicare was awful. It was a rather dingy facility in which you were immediately overwhelmed by the smell of urine and feces! It also took an hour or longer for anyone to respond to her calls, often she was told just to “go in your diaper” until we have time for you! The PT/OT facilities were bare-boned and she received barely more than 20 minutes of one or the other during weekdays. And on one of those days they had a group session instead of individual treatment where none of her Rehab needs were addressed! This place was so awful I found myself crying to myself, feeling guilty that she had to stay in this disgusting facility! I fought for and finally received the OK to transfer her to Lorien, Elkridge! I can only describe it as like going from the worst Motel 6 in the world to the Carlton-Ritz! Lorien Elkridge in a very welcoming, clean, well-equipped facility. And the staff, including the those working the front desk, are very welcoming, responsive, kind and caring!! She rarely waits more than 5 to10 minutes when she request assistance. They seem to be eager to get whatever she needs and often do the same for me. The nurse in charge, is on the ball and is willing to put up with my inquires of her medical treatment and requests from me to obtain specific treatments and/or mess (I will admit that my career with the FDA as an expert in both Medical Devices and Pharmaceuticals does give me an unique knowledge base.) She gets OT and PT every weekday, often for as long as an hour each! I can't rave enough about this facility and its staff. If you live near Elkridge you definitely would want to send your loved one her if they need rehab. Heck, even if you don't live near here, I would still recommend you check this facility out.
