Carroll Lutheran Village Celebrates 12 Consecutive Years as Carroll’s Best

Westminster, MD – Carroll Lutheran Village recently secured the title Carroll’s Best in three distinguished categories – Best Retirement Community, Best Assisted Living and Best Nursing Home – by Carroll County Times readers. This recognition marks 12 consecutive years the community has been recognized as Carroll’s Best.

“Having been award Carroll’s Best in the community where CLV resides, is a testament to our drive for performing and delivering the best to our residents,” stated Jeff Branch, president and CEO of Lutheran Social Ministries of Maryland, the managing organization for CLV.

Transforming CLV is likely the most visible example of the community’s drive to deliver the best to current and future residents, which supports the community’s vision for reimagining aging.

The last of the renovations to two of its apartment buildings is nearly complete. These updates enhance the comfort and style of independent living and social gathering spots, including a new coffee/tea bar.

“As portions of the project have been completed, it has been a joy seeing how these changes have positively impacted residents’ daily lives,” said Dave Bollinger, CLV’s board of trustees chair.

Memory care support in assisted living has also experienced significant enhancements. Obie for Seniors, an interactive gaming system that engages and entertains while enhancing cognitive stimulation, physical activity and social interaction, was added to an already stimulating program of activities that also includes It’s Never Too Late (i.e., iN2L), a program that helps residents connect with families through music, education, worship, games and more.

Additionally, two re-occurring events were added – the Memory Café and Memory Care Support Group. The Memory Café offers residents, families and loved ones with themed social events where they can build meaningful connections – offering a supportive and joyous environment for everyone involved.

The Memory Care Support Group provides a space for families to share, learn and connect with others navigating similar experiences. This group fosters a sense of community and understanding, reinforcing our commitment to supporting residents and their entire support network.

“As we celebrate 12 consecutive years of being voted Carroll’s Best, we remain focused on providing a vibrant, modern and supportive community for our residents. We are grateful to our incredible team members, who help provide that experience to our residents,” stated Ann McDermott, CLV’s associate executive director.

Since its founding over 40 years ago as a nursing home, CLV has grown into a thriving Life Plan Community and home to more than 600 residents. Offering a full continuum of care (i.e., independent living, assisted living, memory care and long-term care), 24 independent living apartment and home floor plans, and an abundance of services and amenities, CLV remains dedicated in its mission to provide exceptional living experiences for older adults.

Carroll Lutheran Village, a community of Lutheran Social Ministries of Maryland, is an accredited, not-for-profit Life Plan Community in Westminster, MD. serving over 600 residents in 397 homes and apartments, 50 assisted living suites and 103 skilled care beds.  For more information about the CLV, call 410-848-0090 or visit clvillage.org.
