Senior Living Community Lakeside at Mallard Landing Earns Prestigious 'Deficiency-Free' Distinction

A comprehensive inspection by state healthcare surveyors revealed zero issues or defects, distinguishing Lakeside At Mallard Landing as a 'deficiency-free' community for 2019.

Deficiency Free

The Maryland Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) has recognized senior living community Lakeside At Mallard Landing for being “deficiency-free” after a comprehensive, unannounced inspection recorded zero issues, problems, or defects.

As part of the survey conducted in August, AHCA personnel reviewed numerous records, policies and procedures, staffing reports and other internal documentation. They also “shadowed” select team members as they performed their operational and patient care duties. AHCA surveyors conducted interviews with residents and family members, visitors, volunteers and the community’s own team of care-givers and lifestyle managers. The thorough inspection indicated the highest level of compliance with state and federal regulations.

Being ‘Deficiency-Free’ signifies excellence across many different categories,” said Executive Director Cheryl Evans. “From care quality and culinary experience, to safety and security, cleanliness, and the overall lifestyle our passionate team members work so hard to provide our residents, this achievement is a well-deserved reflection of the entire team at Lakeside.”

Lakeside At Mallard Landing consists of 111 apartment-homes across three different lifestyle options; Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care. In addition to its deficiency-free distinction, the senior living community has been voted “2019 Best Assisted Living Provider” by two separate Maryland publications. Lakeside At Mallard Landing is located at 1109 S. Schumaker Drive in Salisbury, 3 miles southeast of downtown and convenient to multiple local parks and recreation areas. The community is owned and operated by Florida-based Discovery Senior Living.
