Accreditations
Focused on resident satisfaction, not profit margins
Roland Park Place is a leading Life Plan Community accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities – Continuing Care Accreditation Commission (CARF-CCAC).
We’re a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit CCRC chartered by the State of Maryland and a founding member of LeadingAge Maryland, a community of more than 100 not-for-profit aging services organizations in Maryland.
Our not-for-profit status and CARF accreditation demonstrate our superior performance of our CCRC in providing services to aging adults while meeting the highest standards of fiscal integrity.
Being a not-for-profit organization forms the foundation of our commitment to ensuring quality of life for residents and peace of mind for their families. Our not-for-profit status benefits everyone connected to Roland Park Place in a variety of ways:
We are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors rather than a group of shareholders or investors. Without the need to pay dividends to stockholders, we can reinvest funds into meaningful services, staff education, and resident programs to enhance resident quality of life.
Organizational decisions are based on our mission, vision, and values—not on what will generate profits. Unlike for-profit communities, the leadership at Roland Park Place does not answer to a corporate office or offer cookie-cutter solutions.
Our community’s organizational strategies are guided by resident satisfaction—not stock prices. Our commitment to quality of life for our residents is the strongest influence in decisions made regarding the safety and welfare of all within our community.
CARF-CCAC accreditation since 1990
CARF-CCAC accreditation is a valuable way to quickly identify Roland Park Place as a high-quality Life Plan Community.
Accreditation assures current and prospective residents of an organization’s integrity and provides a public industry standard by evaluating the many retirement living options available to older adults today. CARF-CCAC is the nation’s only accrediting body for Life Plan Communities/CCRCs.
What does that mean for you? CARF-CCAC has already done the work of thoroughly investigating and vetting Roland Park Place as a safe, financially sound, and responsible organization. This literal “gold seal” of approval is awarded to only the very best in the senior living industry. In fact, fewer than 10% of all Life Plan or Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) nationally achieve this accreditation.
Roland Park Place has maintained our accreditation since 1990. It represents our commitment to rigorous self-evaluation, industry benchmarks, and continuous organizational improvement—and it demonstrates how we fulfill our mission every day.
