Fenwick Landing Senior Care Community

R.

As a first responder, I have seen senior facilities in several area counties, as well as in Charles County. Fenwick Landing was hands down the only place I felt comfortable leaving my parents for assisted living care. Over the span of five years, my parents were well-cared for, kept clean and comfortable at all times. The staff became family, often taking the time to decorate and plan special events around birthdays and anniversaries, etc. The facilities were always clean or in the process of being cleaned. I visited several times a week, daytime, evening, weekends, and always felt welcomed. The facility always had an aroma of something delicious baking for the residents' next meal. If I did have a concern (very few), the management was quick to discuss and address my concern, and were willing to work with me on care requests. If I came during mealtime, the staff always asked if I would like something to eat. When I was unable to take leave from work, the staff at Fenwick Landing accompanied my parents to individual doctor appointments, and kept me updated on all care. During stressful times of declining health and illness, my concerns and questions were always answered, and management was very patient and supportive. No matter where your loved ones are placed for assisted care, a family member or loved one really needs to be a participating advocate... The staff at Fenwick Landing were great, and I was very satisfied overall with the care given to my parents.

My mom was at Fenwick Landing for over 8 years. I loved the staff and administrators at Fenwick. They all genuinely care for and love the residents. The staff takes the time to learn about the residents and talks with them constantly. There is always a fun activity going on, trips out to lunch, hair styling, nails painting, outside churches coming in for prayer and worship. The residents are always well groomed and taken care of. I NEVER thought that I would be in a position of placing a loved one anywhere but home, unfortunately that was not an option. Fenwick has a family feel and I wouldn't change a thing about our family's choice for my mom. The atmosphere among staff and family members is fantastic. If I was there during a meal, each and every time the chefs asked if I wanted a plate. The food was always fantastic and as one of my favorite ladies would say when asked how her meal was, she replied "DELICIOUS". Everyone looked after one another. Family members of other residents all talked and formed friendships. I do not regret choosing Fenwick, everyone was amazing.

Fenwick Landing was home to my Dad for over four years. Finding the right place to care for our Dad was one of the most difficult decisions that as a family, we had ever been forced to make. Knowing that we could no longer provide the care that he needed, we toured several facilities and settled on Fenwick Landing. We soon learned that we had made the best decision. The facility proved to be one of the most caring, warm and friendly facilities available. The staff truly cared for my Dad as they would for their own family member. They welcomed my family as visitors and always made us feel welcome and at home. Dealing with the declining health of a loved one is a difficult enough process, but the staff at Fenwick helped make the transition easy for us all. They not only cared for our Dad, but helped us to deal with losing him even before he passed. I think most importantly they helped my Dad to live out his last few years with the dignity and respect he deserved. I will never forget walking into the facility the night he passed. It was late, but several of the staff had come in from their homes to say goodbye one last time. Our Dad passed surrounded by family; ours and the team from Fenwick. I could not thank them enough for what they did for our family.

My mother has been a resident since 2016. The rooms are very nice, each with their own private bathroom (minus shower). There are numerous planned weekly activities, along with a weekly restaurant outing. The staff and management are very caring. Our experience overall has been very positive and we have have been treated like family. There are regular onsite visits made by a doctor, a dentist and a podiatrist.

I would like to say that my mother-on-law has been at Fenwick Landing Senior Care in the Dunroven since 2011she has Dementia. I read some of these reviews and I don't agree with them but everyone has their right to there opinion. In all my visits there I have seen only love giving to the residents by the staff. This is what made us make our decision to go there in the first place. When you have staff that is not afraid to hug or give someone a kiss on the cheek and tell them how much they care touches my heart. I see how the place is kept and it is always clean. If you ask the staff to do something for you of your loved one they are always willing to do so. I also like the fact that they have staff who comes and does crafts and reads to the residents although most do not know what they are doing they do it anyway in hopes to touch at least one person . They also have parties for the resident and their families at Christmas and Mothers Day and a picnic for Father Day. On Wednesday's they take people who are capable of going out to lunch at various places that they like to eat at. Everyone there from management to staff are very caring and giving people. I wouldn't want my Mother-In- Law to be at any other place but Fenwick Landing.

My mom was a resident at Fenwick Landing and I could not speak higher of the staff and management. They always made my family and I feel comfortable. They have amazing holiday parties which you can bring your entire family at no charge. (I have a large family). The facility was always clean and smelled nice. (this was very important for me). My mom and I were very close and when she passed it was one of the hardest things I went through. I was so glad to have had my mom at Fenwick. They were there with me the whole time and helped tremendously. I can't thank them enough.

The staff is excellent!!! Every person that works here is very kind and professional. The entire facility is sparkling clean. There are many daily activities bingo, trivia, baking and gardening. The overall attitude is consistent and always positive. My Dad started in Fenwick Landing’s Adult Day Center. Dad is now a full time resident at Fenwick’s Assisted Living. I am so happy that my family chose Fenwick for our Dad. The quality of care (personal, medical) my Dad receives everyday is outstanding. The residents eat home cooked meals in the dining room everyday. There is nothing institutional about the food or the decor. It feels and looks like home.The staff always addresses any questions or concerns I have promptly. I am always included in any decisions regarding my Dad. Fenwick Landing is always honest about any additional costs that may come up. Fenwick Landing is Waldorf’s best kept secret!!!

Saw at least 2 staff members with head down on mobile devices, braiding their own hair.One resident asked for medicine, stating she was in pain, had to ask three times before she was attended to. I visited this facility for almost 2 hours, one resident was not moved, offered a snack, water or companionship the entire time. While great music was playing consistently in the background, staff seemed to be entertaining each other more than residents. The dining area is neat and well laid out however over shadowed by the smell of urine and or feces. I will not reccommend anyone I care about to this facility and it is only my opinion that more experienced staff are hired here for a better outcome and look to visitors. When I left, dinner was being served on time, the cook seemed more socially interactive more than staff placed on the floor for resident care. The rooms are small but, are appropriate for the population. I would encourage more hospital type beds for this facility, one bed located on dagsboro unit was lower than my knee cap. Beautiful waterfall located on premises outside, l would recommend staff take smoke breaks in their vehicles or in the back of facility. Before I signed out I felt I had to make sure my loved one was you later as it was not offered during my entire stay.

The rooms at Fenwick Landing Senior Care Community were very small. It was clean and had a nice smell, and the people were friendly.

The visit at Fenwick Landing was fine. The environment and services seemed to be excellent. Everybody just seemed to be friendly and helpful. The dining room certainly was fine and adequate. The rooms are very sensible.
