A HEART FOR HELPING OTHERS

At Rest Assured Residential Living, attitude is as important as aptitude, and we look for a generous heart in every staff member we hire. That’s why one of our most distinguishing features is our remarkable staff. They like working here, and it shows in the special way they touch the lives of all who live, work and visit our home.

FROM ONE WOMAN'S VISION

Rest Assured Residential Living opened in 1990 as the third community operated by the not-for-profit Brooke Grove Foundation. The foundation’s commitment to well-being and outstanding service began with one woman’s vision.

In 1950, registered nurse Eleanor Howe Marston opened her farmhouse in Sandy Spring, Maryland, to older adults who could no longer live on their own. She began the tradition of “touching people’s lives” with a commitment to treating the whole person and a philosophy of service and care that has become Brooke Grove Foundation’s trademark.

Her son Carl Howe became the first licensed nursing home administrator in Maryland, a position that allowed him to help set the standards for care that regulate the industry. For nearly three-quarters of a century, Brooke Grove Foundation has been an industry leader in assisted living, rehabilitation, skilled nursing and Alzheimer’s services.

Today, one woman’s dream of compassion and kindness continues to be reflected in the people who fill Rest Assured Residential Living with energy and spirit.

LIFE^® PRINCIPLES

Our mission to enhance the lives of residents, fellow staff, family members and visitors to our community drives everything we do and is central to our LIFE^® principles. LIFE^® is an acronym that stands for Living Well Together, Individual Discovery, Family Matters and Enriching Experiences.

“The staff is friendly and caring. They know each resident on a personal level and always offer their patience. I know my mother is in good hands.”

~ Karen, family member
“Sometimes, Mom likes to have us join her in the dining room for meals rather than going out—they’re that good. It’s like she has her own personal chef.”

~ Judy, family member
“Our family farm is on Shirleys Hollow Road, as is Rest Assured. Little did we know that both our mom and aunt would be cared for in this facility in their later years. The staff has become an extended family who provide quality care for all residents and treat families with respect and kindness.”

~ David, family member
"When I needed to find a place for my mother to live, I was delighted to find everything I was looking for at Rest Assured. Mom has been so happy since moving there."
