Lorien Taneytown Assisted Living

My mother was in the sub acute rehabilitation twice. Each time the staff were friendly and compassionate as well as knowledgeable and professional. I can’t say enough about the nursing director and the social worker. They are dedicated people who support families and patients. This is a difficult journey to take but the staff here are so empathetic and wise. My mom is now in the assisted living there and I have the same thing to say about them. So professional, kind and caring. Even though my mother was VERY resistant they have patiently and lovingly worked with her. The residents are also very helpful and friendly. I am editing this to add that the facility is meticulously clean!!! The housekeeping staff should be highly commended. The floors are gleaming and the bathrooms in both the sub acute section and the assisted living are kept spotless. Kudos to activities staff too! They are very patient and have successfully urged my reluctant mom to come out of her shell. There us no reason to stay in your apartment alone. Everyday there are at least 5 activities happening. If you are looking for a clean, friendly and professional place for your mom or dad, you need to check out Lorien in Taneytown.

Dad enjoyed his time at Lorien and I was amazed at how well run the facility was. The care was exceptional, the food was delicious and the staff are/were very caring and friendly. He made new friends with residents and staff alike. He especially enjoyed "Happy Hour". Lovely, clean and friendly place to live and visit.

Lorien assistant living is a place like home. They offer a variety of room plans and activities for residents. Lorien staff work to make all residents feel welcome and taken care of. They encourage participation for meals and activities and ask for input to make everyone happy. Verna goes above her job description to make everyone happy and are taken care of like they are her family. My family can't say enough good things about Lorien.

Lorien Taneytown's staff made not only my dad's life much better and fuller, they also gave my family the peace of mind that he was loved and cared for. "Doc Rosie", as they called him, loved his 3 years there. Especially "Verna" who always let him pick his afternoon drives by the farms of Carroll County so he could tell stories of his time of being a veterinarian in the area. (Sorry he wandered off at Walmart, Verna!) The most fun was the day you all did the "Rubber Ducky Slip & Slide"! How you figured out how to get a bunch of 90 year-olds on a plastic duck was beyond me! Dad laughed the entire way down! Lorien Taneytown felt like home and the employees treated our Dad like family. This phase of life is very difficult to maneuver for all, especially during COVID. You do wonderful things. We were very blessed to have had Dad at a place like Lorien where the staff really care. Thank you to everyone at Lorien who cared for "Doc Rosie" PS: Sorry he had his TV volume on "MAX" for 3 years! Love, Bonnie (Doc's daughter)

My mom was in Lorien from 2017 through 2023. She became a different person when she got there. She wasn’t depressed, she was happier, she was joining in with people doing things. Even with a brain injury that she lived with for 14 years. Due to that she couldn’t read, had trouble with words, but the people up there, all of them were great with her and helped her. She went in For physical therapy from a broken arm. After she was there two weeks, she decided she needed to stay. Her decision. I’m so glad we found Lorien Taneytown she was happy there her last six years. The first year she was there she had her 90th Birthday it was like she was getting younger instead of getting older. Everyone there was great and she was able to stay in the assisted-living side.
