Community is the theme at Malta House, which is just minutes from the University of Maryland and serves the people of Hyattsville. Its unique location provides opportunities for arts and culture.
At Malta House, we encourage our residents to enjoy an independent lifestyle while we provide all the conveniences of home, from delicious home-made meals to housekeeping services. Therefore, our residents have more time to socialize, participate in recreational activities, or just read a favorite novel. Our residents also enjoy peace of mind, knowing that when supportive services are needed, our caring staff members are there to assist them at no additional charge.
Testimonials
"Malta House is ideal for my mother, who feels completely at home there. My mother even gets the bonus of regular mass, which is important for her as a Roman Catholic. Clean, friendly, with an attentive staff and a great physical configuration for people who have a little difficulty getting around. Malta House is a true blessing for all who live there."
- C. F.
"Our mother constantly tells us how fortunate she is that her daughter found Malta House. The personnel treat her as their own, many hugs and lots of comfort. It's such a peace of mind knowing that she is here."
