Take a Virtual Tour

  • Welcome to my home, the Hebrew Home of Greater Washington. Did you know the Hebrew Home has been part of the Washington community since 1910?
  • Your family becomes part of our family, included in your care team, activities and support programs.
  • Who has the winning hand? Poker is just one of hundreds of activities available to residents.
  • Comfortable surroundings, outstanding care and rehabilitation.
  • “I marveled over how you transformed the everyday routine into a vital community where patients have the possibility to thrive, not just survive - the Home resonates with the sounds of life, caring, and dignity.” - Bookman family
  • Volunteers like Ruth add immeasurably to life for each resident. They deliver flowers, assist with programs, visit those who have no family nearby, escort residents to therapy sessions, and more.
  • Opportunities to form friendships and to pursue favorite interests enrich daily life.
  • Beautiful surroundings are important. On our campus, you can watch the seasons, enjoy picnics, feed the birds, and make use of secure outdoor gardens.
  • The Home is open to everyone. Spiritual needs are met, whatever a person’s religion, cultural background, or level of observance. Jewish values ensure respect, compassion, dignity, justice and learning are part of daily life.
  • Looking good makes you feel good. The beauty parlor/barber shop is just one convenience; we also have in-house banking services, libraries, soda shop, computer access and laundry services. Everything you need is everywhere around you.
  • Nursing is the cornerstone of care here. Nursing staff and social workers help residents and families feel at ease and create a sense of community on each unit.
  • Each year, over 1,000 people come to our Rakusin Rehabilitation Center for short-stay care, perhaps to recover from joint replacement surgery or stroke. The rehabilitation center has a proven track record in helping people recover and return to their own homes.
  • With our therapy area, we have a realistic setting to practice and relearn skills for independent living.
  • We have a staff of full-time, on-site physicians and podiatrist, all experienced in caring for older patients. This is one of the factors that sets us apart in providing outstanding care. Dr. Damien Doyle directs our medical staff.
  • The Home benefits from outstanding leadership and significant support from the community, a constant reminder that our residents are valued and loved.
  • We hope you’ve enjoyed your visit to the Hebrew Home. Our Wasserman (1) and Smith-Kogod (2) residences are part of Charles E. Smith Life Communities, which includes Revitz House (3), Ring House (4) and Landow House (5)
