Arcadia of Crofton II in Gambrills, MD
4.4
The community has activities. The facility is a very home style setting, small number of patients, the staff is a 4-1 staff ratio. The director is very personable and helpful. The room my brother is in is his and can set it up anyway he wants. It is about as homey as you can get.
Prince of Peace IV in Cheltenham, MD

I would recommend Prince of Peace IV to others. It feels like home and the environment is pleasing and clean. The move in process was very simple. I rate the care very high, as they notice any small changes in my mother's health and alert me immediately.
