Celebrating Our Differences

Ingleside celebrates the energy of our nation’s capital, the remarkable beauty of Northern Virginia, and the blended urban and small-town feel of Rockville, Maryland. In all of our programs and services, we embrace and promote a culture that acknowledges the diversity of every resident, their loved ones, and our staff and administration, all of whom are part of the Ingleside family.

At Ingleside, we are dedicated to fostering a culture where everyone feels seen, valued, and fully supported. Our commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) is grounded in mutual respect and genuine connection, honoring each person’s unique identity and life experience. We believe belonging is not a destination, but an ongoing, shared responsibility. It means creating spaces where individuals can thrive, contribute, and engage fully. “Engaged Living” is more than a motto, it reflects our enduring promise to celebrate differences, cultivate meaningful relationships, and ensure that every voice is heard and respected.

Ingleside at Rock Creek, Westminster at Lake Ridge, and Ingleside at King Farm have earned the 2026 SAGECare platinum-level lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) cultural competency certification. SAGECare is acknowledged as the foremost comprehensive national cultural competency training program dedicated to improving the lives of older LGBT adults.

The SAGECare certification program is synergistic with Ingleside’s core values of inclusion, diversity and engagement represented throughout our organization and in our mission to provide the very best person-directed care for all.

Ingleside is designated as a "LGBTQ+ Long-Term Care Equality High Performer” in the Human Rights Campaign Foundation and SAGE's Long-Term Care Equality Index (LEI). The LEI is the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey of residential long-term care and senior housing communities on policies and practices dedicated to the equitable treatment and inclusion of their LGBTQ+ residents, visitors and employees.
