About Riderwood
Riderwood is a continuing care retirement community spanning 120 acres in Silver Spring, Maryland. The campus includes four clubhouses connected by climate-controlled walkways, housing six restaurants, fitness centers, an indoor heated pool and hot tub, computer labs, arts studios, woodworking shops, a performing arts center, and a resident-run television studio. On-site services include a pharmacy, beauty salon, barber shop, convenience store, and banking.
The community employs security staff trained in emergency first response. Medical care is provided by an on-site center staffed by geriatricians who specialize in care for older adults and work with residents to develop wellness plans. Continuing care means residents can transition between independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing as needs change, though specific care levels and what transitions are included should be confirmed directly with the community.
It offers independent living communities, assisted living facilities, memory care units, continuing care retirement communities, active adult communities, skilled nursing facilities, respite care services, age-restricted condominiums, senior co-housing, and life plan communities. Residents have access to 16 listed amenities and services spanning community spaces, dining options, fitness center, outdoor activities, security features, swimming pool, transportation services, and wellness programs. Across 51 resident and family reviews, it holds an average rating of 3.9 out of 5.
