[RP TownTalk] Advice regarding nursing facility reply

Thu Apr 26 19:28:35 UTC 2007

I've heard a few remarks that HillHaven (down
PowderMill Road) is pretty good;  on the "bad" side,
I've heard that Magnolia (at Doctors Hospital) isn't
so good.  Haven't had any personal experience w/
relatives or friends in either place, though.  My
brother was in an assisted living home way up in
Hagerstown, it was called Loyalton of Hagerstown.  It
seemed to be a nice place, clean, etc.  But I don't
know if it's just assisted living or they have nursing
home facilities.  (too, it's a bit farther out)
