Woodson Manor Assisted Living sits in a quiet, residential part of Accokeek, Maryland, about two miles from Bryans Road, and it serves up to five residents in a small, homelike setting at 2207 Saint Joan Place. The place is set up for seniors who still want independence but could use help with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, eating, and taking medicine, and it's got both private and shared studio rooms, each with its own kitchenette and ADA-compliant bathroom, plus nonslip floors, grab bars, and easy access for those who need it. The staff includes trained nurses and healthcare workers who are there day and night, handling everything from medication management and personal care to incontinence help, Parkinson's care, and regular health checks by licensed physicians and nurses, and they also coordinate with outside doctors and handle transportation for medical appointments.
Woodson Manor's activity calendar has social events, games, crafts, movie nights, wellness classes, and group outings, so residents have plenty to do, and there are patios and walking paths if someone likes spending time outside. Meals are freshly made using organic ingredients, and they meet special dietary needs too, taking a bit of worry off meal planning each day, and housekeeping, laundry, and linen services come standard, keeping everything neat and clean. The place has cable, internet, air-conditioning, and telephone service, and there's a 24-hour call system for safety and peace of mind, and the building itself is fully furnished and set up to be both comfortable and practical.
The community accepts seniors needing assisted living, memory care, in-home care, and even those looking for short-term respite care to help family caregivers get a break, and it's pet-friendly for those wanting to keep a companion animal in a semi-private or one-bedroom suite. The price is typically around $275, though official rates aren't published, and folks have given mixed reviews: general community feedback averages an 8 out of 10, but a single review on A Place for Mom gave it a 1.0 out of 5, so experiences seem to vary. Woodson Manor focuses on tailored care plans for each resident, offering help with the basics and wellness programs like fitness and preventive screenings, with a goal of letting seniors stay as independent and happy as possible while still getting the support they need every day.
