Why Olney Families Choose Brookeville House
Closer Than You Think
If you live in Olney, you’re already our neighbor. Brookeville House is a 5-to-10-minute drive from most Olney neighborhoods — closer than the grocery store for many families. That means easy drop-in visits, quick responses in an emergency, and the comfort of knowing your loved one is right around the corner.
A Real Home, Not a Facility
Our three residences aren’t converted office buildings or institutional complexes. They are genuine homes — spacious, warm, and filled with natural light. Residents share meals at a family-size table, relax in comfortable living rooms, and enjoy views of Montgomery County’s rolling countryside. For Olney seniors accustomed to quiet, tree-lined streets, Brookeville House feels like a natural extension of home.
Staffing That Sets Us Apart
Large assisted living buildings in the Olney-Brookeville corridor may house 40, 60, or 80+ residents with overworked staff. At Brookeville House, our 1:4 ratio means each caregiver is responsible for only a handful of residents. That translates to faster response times, deeper personal relationships, and care that truly adapts to the individual — not the schedule.
Transparent, All-Inclusive Pricing
Our monthly rate covers everything: room, three home-cooked meals daily, personal care assistance, medication management, activities, housekeeping, and transportation to medical appointments. No surprise fees. No “level of care” surcharges that appear on month two. We give you a number, and that’s what you pay.
