The decision to move into a Northgate and Friendship Heights neighborhoods can be overwhelming and difficult. At Aberdeen Village, we work hard to help you or your loved one with the transition.

WHAT ARE MY LONG-TERM CARE OPTIONS?

We offer private and semi-private residences where residents can receive qualified, around-the-clock nursing care.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LONG-TERM CARE AND ASSISTED LIVING?

Assisted living residents are more independent. Our assisted living residents may be able to perform more activities and can get around as they like. They may need help with certain tasks, such as housework or bathing, but they can perform many tasks on their own. Long-term care is a solution for seniors who need much more help from a dedicated caregiver, with tasks such as getting in and out of chairs, moving around, and more.

At Aberdeen Village all faiths are welcome in our community. Our chaplain helps connect our residents with spiritual services that best fit them.
