About Althea Woodland Nursing Home

+
Located on Daleview Drive in the Kemp Mill area of Silver Spring, Althea Woodland Nursing Home offers skilled nursing care in a residential neighborhood setting that balances accessibility with a calm, wooded atmosphere. Situated in the northern portion of Montgomery County's Silver Spring corridor, the facility draws on the rich network of medical providers, cultural institutions, and community amenities that define the broader Silver Spring and Wheaton area. Althea Woodland provides long-term skilled nursing care as well as short-term post-acute services for individuals recovering from surgery, illness, or hospitalization. The clinical team manages complex medical needs including cardiac care, diabetes management, respiratory conditions, and wound care, ensuring residents receive the level of medical oversight required for safe and effective recovery or sustained wellbeing. Families visiting residents will find the surrounding neighborhood offers considerable convenience. Westfield Wheaton mall on Veirs Mill Road provides comprehensive retail and dining options just minutes away. Brookside Gardens, located within Wheaton Regional Park, is one of Montgomery County's most beloved public green spaces — a stunning 50-acre display garden that offers a peaceful and beautiful setting for family outings. Wheaton Regional Park itself includes athletic fields, trails, a miniature steam train, and a nature center, making it an ideal destination for families with children visiting grandparents. For medical coordination, Holy Cross Hospital in Silver Spring and Suburban Hospital (Johns Hopkins Medicine) in Bethesda are the two primary referral hospitals serving this area, both with strong rehabilitation and specialty programs. The Kemp Mill and Wheaton neighborhoods are among the most diverse communities in Montgomery County, reflecting the broader Silver Spring area's vibrant multicultural character.
