Start early, write down all questions you have and see if they allow you to eat a meal as a guest in your search.
Pros: It is a very clean place and the aides and workers are super friendly. I get email alerts on any illness going around and activities. The sales rep has truly helped us more than anyone else Cons: The meals are smaller and you don't get to pick what you want. We went with the large apartment and it just doesn't feel like a home to my father but a large hospital room. I am my father's POA for healthcare but the nurses are very hard to reach and they give very limited information. The nurses all have had attitudes but again the Med Techs, Aides, Laundry Staff and cleaning staff all treat him with respect and are super kind. For [removed]k a month we expected a nicer room, different food options, and to not be talked down to by the nurses. I wish we would have had more time to look around.

Short staffed
The staff was very nice, but this is an assisted living facility. My dad needed more help than they could provide. He fell multiple times a day, and had dementia so he couldn’t remember to press the call button. His acuity was too high for this facility. He passed away in the facility.

I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional care provided to my gmom during her time at Lorien Bel Air. The compassion, kindness, and professionalism demonstrated by the entire staff were truly remarkable. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that her well-being and comfort were top priority. What sets Lorien Bel Air apart is the genuine concern and dedication of the caregivers. Every staff member, from the nurses & aides, dining & activities teams, laundry & maintenance staff, treated my gmom with respect & dignity. They took the time to get to know her as an individual, learning about her preferences and interests. The compassion and support extended to both my gmom and our family were immeasurable. The care and kindness shown in her final days is something we will always be grateful for. Thank you to the entire Lorien Bel Air team for all that you do! While losing a loved one is never easy, knowing she was in such capable & caring hands brings us comfort.

Review for Lorien Bel Air
It was one of the best places I visited. Very spacious. People were friendly. If your mom or dad has dementia they will likely need more help than what the staff can provide. I chose it because of my mom ran out of funds, they accepted Medicare/Medicaid. All assisted living locations are expensive.

Great place for a respite stay
We used Lorien Bel Air for a respite stay for my loved one and everything about our experience at this facility was great. The housekeeping was very efficient. The move in and move out process was easy. The cleanliness, friendliness, care services and staff were great. Communication with the family was a challenge. Overall, I would recommend Lorien Bel Air.

A comfortable place for mom.
My mother enjoyed herself interacting with the residents and staff. I would recommend it as a great place for mom or a love one who needs assistance. We picked this community, because I seen it advertised, research on computer and a tour, liked what we saw.

The staff is good to very good. Only had one bad apple. I think that is very good! Compared to the last place I lived, the food is better quality as well as the cooking of the food. You can be as busy as you want here or solitary as you please. As for the Value for Cost, there are too many extras that add up quickly. I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

Clean, private rooms and bath, nice activities, excellent food service, good care, and 24 hour access. Billing has been a bit slow, but the department was in transition. New staff seems to be on the ball. The staff is quite good. Kind, helpful and respectful. [name removed] in Activities and [name removed] in Transportation are especially helpful. Activities are somewhat less than usual due to a COVID outbreak, but picking up again. My mom loves Bingo. Housekeeping is pretty good. They keep up well. I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

This facility is good. Right now they're having some issues with Dining Room staffing, they're short handed. It seems disorganized, but they're looking for someone to hire to run the Dining Room. The food quality is down a bit, also. Other than that, things are going very good and my mom has been very happy here. Overall, the staff are very friendly and interactive. They've had to hire a lot of new people, but it's been fine. Housekeeping is once a week and is good. Communication with the family has been good also. I would recommend them to family and friends.

Not for memory care
My dads room was filthy. He had dementia and dropped food. They didn't clean up blood in the bathroom. They were short staffed and in reality he was too acute for assisted living. They are not suited to handle memory care.

So far the experience with Lorien Bel Air has been pretty good - the reasons we picked this community is because they have more men there for our loved one that what other communities had. We like that it is a bigger community so it gives our loved one more chances to get up and walk around and socialize more. It also is really close to our family which is very convenient.

We chose Lorien Bel Air because of the location, the cleanliness of the facility, and the availability. Also, the rooms were newer construction. The room sizes were generous compared to some others we saw. She said the food here was average. The best part about the community was the newness of the rooms, it felt very updated and had a homey feel. Overall, I would recommend to others.

Review of Lorien Bel Air
The staff at the Lorien of Bel Air was very helpful with assisting my family with all the procedures and preparations required for getting my father ready for his entry into Assisted Living at their facility. This was no easy feat during a pandemic, but their professionalism made it as painless as possible. They were patient and thorough with answering all our many questions and concerns while making this difficult decision for our loved one. I feel confident that we have chosen the right facility for our Dad to ensure he receives the best care and will have the best quality of life possible.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Maryland regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Maryland regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored Lorien Bel Air 7.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
