My mother was recently diagnosed with Parkinson disease. After months in the hospital and rehab we were fortunate enough to find her a forever home at Harmony Hall. The entire staff - administrative, transportation, nurses, care givers, dining room - ALL of them are truly amazing. They made mom feel comfortable and cared for and are always responsive to any questions we have. During this pandemic they have risen above and beyond to keep the residents and staff protected and safe, as well as the family members informed.

An absolutely lovely facility, with amazing, friendly, and helpful staff. Harmony Hall helped us host a charity event, and everyone was beyond amazing. The facility itself is beautiful and has newly been renovated, and every time we walked in there, everyone looked so happy. Harmony Hall is well organized, and always has lots of events going on for the people who live there. They have movie nights, bingo nights, and other community events to bring everyone together. Everyone is super nice and I highly recommend Lorien Harmony Hall.

My mother lived at Harmony Hall for 21 years. She had medical conditions that made it unsafe for her to live alone, but she didnt want to live with her children. She started in independent living and really thrived there. She was relieved of the burden of managing her prescription drugs, and cooking meals; two tasks that she really needed help with. She took advantage of the outings and activities offered by Harmony Hall. Over the years her health declined. After a stroke left her severely impaired, she moved to a higher level of care. Through the years, Harmony Hall constantly assessed her current needs and made adjustments to her care as needed. The staff was a fabulous partner with me to provide the best quality of life we could achieve. My mom was not always easy to care for, but the folks at Harmony Hall worked very hard to find ways to improve her life as she aged and her needs and capabilities changed.The facility is very clean and well maintained. They refurbish the well used common areas regularly to keep them fresh and in good repair. They have areas our family used to hold gatherings so we could include Mom, even after her health prevented her from going out to events. Every staff member greets residents by name; a skill that I am a little jealous of, and is appreciated by the residents and families. They all had techniques for working with my mom. The on site occupational and physical therapy are outstanding. So is the nursing care. And when our family reached the end of life phase with Mom, Harmony Hall was excellent at that as well, partering seamlessly with Gilchrist, right in her familiar home, moms Harmony Hall apartment. Harmony Hall was a great home for Mom 21 years ago when was mobile and actively participated in activities. It was still great as her health declined over the years. Mom had a peaceful passing, in her own apartment at Harmony Hall, with her family and familiar caregivers around her. I am thankful we were able to partner with Harmony Hall to provide this.

If you want a second family that will truly care about your loved one, research no further- Harmony Hall is the right choice! I did EXTENSIVE research before transferring my mom from rehab to Harmony Hall, and I couldnt be happier. I was impressed with the staff before the pandemic, but now I am honestly just blown away by the level of commitment by the entire staff - not only to my moms heath and safety, but to her happiness and desire to stay socially engaged. The amount of communication with the families during this quarantine has been simply remarkable and appreciated more than I can express. The staff has gone above and beyond to keep my mom connected to her family through video calls and now even an in--person visit by my sister and nieces from a safe distance. I look forward to being able to fly back to Maryland and see my mom and thank the staff. Harmony Hall is an absolutely beautiful facility with an incredibly caring staff. I was extremely worried when COVID-19 first hit and was scared for my mom and the entire elderly population across the country, but it all changed when one of her nurses told me on the phone that she loves my mom as if she were her mom.

I am a visitor here and every time I come the staff is all very warm and welcoming. The building is updated and clean, and there is a dynamic group of residents to connect with. I especially love the group of ladies who I enjoy playing Canasta with!

My family could not have picked a better place for my dads last couple of months. He was with Harmony Hall from Feb. 2020 through May 2020. Even though not being able to visit him during the COVID outbreak, the staff at Harmony Hall were like his 2nd family. The facility is super nice, like a resort. My dad was extremely happy with the facility and staff. Much appreciation to the Harmony Hall family for taking such good care of him through a difficult time!!! You will always be in my heart!!

PLEASE do not send a loved on to this establishment!!My Mother was in the memory care ward and the care of almostnon existent. I would arrive around 11am, my Mom had not been cleaned up for the day, her bottom partial was not in (she could not eat without it); they would tell me she didnt eat her breakfast, thats correct you need to put her partial in!!! I went in one day and she had Feces on her shirt.I brought this to their attention (the nurse Natalia) every day, oh sorry we were busy was the answer I received. when I found the feces, I reported this to the Ombudsman for Howard County, we had a meeting with Debbie Gallagher one of the Administrators; I made sure she knew I was watching for any retaliation. 2 weeks later my Mom was found dead!No one ever called me to tell me she was in distress; however they would call me for every other thing, even in the middle of the night. I rushedover when I finally got the call from Hospice and they said she had just died the minute before I got there (literally). I unfortunately I lost my Dad shortly after my Mom as he was very sick as well. I was the main caretaker for both of my parents, so I am just starting to pursue this tragic event.When I got off the elevator all of the staff scattered, I went to find Natalia and she was no where to be found; when I finally found her she would not answer any of my questions and told me I would have to speak to the Admin staff. I was approached by two of the staff members who truly liked my Mom and they said that there was foul play and they were visibly upset.I could go on an on about the Horrific care my Mother received.Please do not send your loved one to this establishment. I sent myDad to Sunrise across the street from Harmony Hall and when he passed it was the most heartfelt and professional process anyone could ask for.Please take this seriously, I never write reviews but I am not at rest with the death of my Mother.

After much research our family decided to place Dad at Harmony Hall . We are beyond thrilled with our choice. From the moment he walked in the door he has received wonderful and attentive care.Dad has adjusted well to his new life and we are grateful that he is in a safe and happy environment.

Harmony Hall isnt your regular retirement facility. It is a facility with a mission to care for the residents that live there. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. The movie theater is beautiful!

Great community. Friendly staff providing excellent care. Visited a friend recently who moved to Harmony Hall because they offer dialysis on-site. I had no idea that this service was offered at an assisted living community.

My good friend Norma lives here. Whenever I visit, I see all smiling friendly faces and helpful people, from the reception staff to the dining room to the health aides. Clean & welcoming, with a variety of activities offered for residents. Good job, Lorien!

Anybody can give a 5 star rating, so dont be so quick to judge based on this. For example - the assistant manager gives it 5 stars; ( Monikki Spriggs), but do yourself and your family member a favor, and use the Governments website to see the score from the patients perspective.

After undergoing rehabilitation for a hip injury, my 81-year-old father resided at Harmony Hall for about six weeks in a respite care apartment. Kendall was extremely helpful with the admissions process and continued to provide top-notch assistance and attention throughout his stay, all the way through and beyond his discharge. She could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The nurses and other staff members were also great, making us feel at ease while moving through what was a completely unfamiliar situation for my dad, myself and the rest of our family. I highly recommend Harmony Hall!!!

My dad moved into Harmony Hall in October 2015. He had a great one bedroom apartment that was very spacious. Before moving dad to Harmony Hall I visited over 20 assisted living in the Anne Arundel and Howard County area. Harmony Hall by far offered the most Care at the best price ever. The caregivers really took good care of my dad and kept me informed at all times. I spent a lot of time with dad at Harmony Hall. The food was delicious and the staff was incredible. unfortunately Dad passed two weeks ago he had been in bad shape for a long time. He kept telling me he just wanted to get back to Harmony Hall. I thank all of the folks at Harmony Hall. I highly recommend Harmony Hall Im glad Dad got to spend time there and I got to meet such nice people.

Great place! A warm friendly environment!

STAY FAR AWAY. My grandmother used to be here and she was severely mistreated by the employees. On top of that, all of her jewelry was stolen by them. Negative stars if I could. You are PAYING for the mistreatment of your loved one. DONT DO IT. Find somewhere else.

Harmony Hall is a place full of friendly and lovely residents. The three stars im giving is because of the staff. No clean towels unless you bother them about it more than once. No picking up trash from the apartments. Staff in the cafeteria are rude to residents and always have an attitude. No respect and no patience towards the residents. Some residents even avoid asking for more things because of the attitude they get in return.

I am very happy with the facility , and the communication with the staff that I have received over the past 7 years for my cousin. I would recommend Harmony Hall ALF

Great place with lots of opportunities for everyone.

Do they have an email address?

This facility is a business first. Residents and employees come second. Dont be fooled.

My parents moved to Harmony Hall in January 2002 and remained there until my Dad passed in June 2013 and Mom in August 2014. They moved to Harmony Hall because my mom found them to be the only assisted living facility which would provide the extra help she needed to care for my dad after his stroke the previous year and she wanted to get him out of the nursing home where he felt he was in prison (literally). The extra assistance along with her tireless efforts (and lots of PT and OT) enabled Dad to recover to the point where he could walk with a walker and he ended up taking laps around the place. They moved to the first floor and lived there for almost ten years before Dad began an 18 month decline in his final illness.With respect to the staff I never saw any of the staff be less than patient and kind in that 12+ years despite the constant repetition needed with those suffering dementia. Being only about 10 miles away I was there a lot.Staff turnover was much lower than I would have thought and there were a couple of staff members who were there before my parents arrived and remained though the entire time that I was visiting HH.The most heartwarming thing for me was that all of the staff members dropped by the room to say their goodbyes during the time between my moms death and when the funeral home staff arrived to take her.

They do not take care of your relatives. Dementia patients are left in bed all day, clothing stuffed in the closets. No one checking on your loved ones. Avoid at all costs!

Beautiful place

Everyone was very friendly.
