A Place for Dad.

Symphony Manor has been a great place for my dad. They address his needs both physically and cognitively. It is clean in both his private room and the main area. He loves the food and the activities. The staff is kind and responsive. It is a huge weight off my shoulders to know he is so well cared for.

Response from the community

Thank you H.L., for sharing your experience. We’re grateful your dad feels supported and enjoys our community. Knowing he’s well cared for brings us joy, and we appreciate your recognition of our team’s dedication, kindness, and attention to his needs. Warm regards, Alison

Symphony Manor

Truth be told I made those ratings based on the experience of the other residents. Unfortunately my relative was not a good fit for Symphony Manor. He required more medical attention than they could supply but for the right person Symphony Manor is excellent and the administrative staff is terrific especially the new director [name removed]

I liked the community feel of Symphony Manor. I want somewhere I can be with my husband as long as possible. The rooms are quite small so I don't think its a good fit for my purposes. It is also not really in my income range.

Our goal for Mom was met

Covid and Mom's need for more care dictated a cross country move from Maryland to stay with my husband and me in California. After several years and her longing for home, my brother in Texas and I decided that an assisted living facility in Baltimore would be best. After a year of research, we decided on Symphony Manor. It is a smaller place where the atmosphere is warm and comfortable with very little of an "assisted living" air while also fulfilling our mother's needs. It was recommended to us by a friend whose

I would recommend Symphony Manor to others. It's a lovely place in a lovely part of Baltimore-not too big and by and large. I had few issues there. The one thing that in addition to cost made me move was that there is only one choice of food at each meal so if you don't like that, there's no other choices for you and that was a real problem for my mom. I thought the housekeeping could've been better. Her room was very tiny there for the price, but I will say the workers seemed more trained, and in general more kind
