What the families we serve have to say

My husband spent a month in respite care at Artis. He was warmly welcomed by the staff and other residents there. Everyone is compassionate, professional and patient. Much thought goes into creative activities to engage and entertain the residents. The staff is cheerful and smiling, which is so important and not always the case in other places. I highly recommend Artis and hope to return there in the future.

How lucky and grateful my family and I are to have found the Artis residence and staff, who have taken in my beloved husband and provided him a safe, healthy, and compassionate environment. The Artis directors and staff members, with their cheer and skill, have made him feel welcome and vital in his new home. Activities abound and enrich him in ways we sadly could no longer provide for him at home. And, not only has Artis provided him a warm and loving community, but one for our family as well.

We’ve been working with Artis since it’s opening in 2022 and have always found the staff at this community to be attentive and caring. The residents are well taken care of and we appreciate that leadership puts an emphasis on oral health in the community. We absolutely recommend Artis Senior Living of Potomac.

My dad moved in to Artis 12/04/23 as my family could no longer manage his dementia and Alzheimer’s care. For something so emotional they have made this experience surprisingly smooth and somewhat easy. Every staff member is so friendly and helpful – I cannot believe they all know my dad by name already and some know our family members too. Have provided coaching and advice prepping for and through the whole transition process. Somehow they have gotten him to jump in to participating in many of their activities. Well-designed (I work in the buildings industry) and nicely appointed. Super convenient as we live nearby in surrounding Potomac area. Bonus–> my 13-year old even wants to visit because they give him free cookies and hot chocolate!

Artis of the Potomac is a hidden gem of a community located on a beautiful, woodsy hill in Potomac. What sets Artis apart from other communities I’ve visited is their kind and dedicated staff who work hard to ensure that each residents’ individual needs and preferences are being met. The staff go the extra mile to lift their residents up and treat them as their own family. Care Partners, Mia and Tameka, are always taking the time to doll residents up, providing a hand to hold, and sharing a smile. Even the culinary staff, Tieka in particular, treat the residents with sincere compassion. It’s truly a lovely place to be!

What I love most about Artis is the intentional creativity, preparation, attention to detail and willingness to go to the moon and back for residents, families and associates. Artis empowers associates to create unique, personalized experiences for residents and families, which allows families to recapture familiar family roles and pass the baton of primary care providing to Artis-trained care partners who specialize in planning for and responding to dementia. Artis is a fantastic place to continue life on the journey with dementia; somewhere vibrant, with purpose and the ability to have a voice.
