Another Caring Home in Baltimore operates as both an Assisted Living residence and a Residential Care Home, allowing it to serve older adults who need varying levels of daily support. The community is equipped to manage residents who wander, display combative or other behavioral issues, require wound care or oxygen therapy, or must follow specialized diets. Staff are trained to care for adults under 60 and to monitor diabetes whether managed by oral medication, injections, or sliding-scale protocols. Moderate dementia care is part of the standard offering, ensuring continuity for residents whose cognitive needs may change over time.
Oversight is continuous, with a nurse on call around the clock, background-checked staff, overnight coverage, and secured, alarmed doors for resident safety. On-site podiatry is available, and the home accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Direct care includes full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, along with transfer support ranging from simple supervision with a walker to a one-person physical transfer. These measures allow residents to remain in place even as mobility or health conditions evolve.
Private and semi-private rooms come furnished, and residents can repaint or decorate to suit personal tastes. Cable service and routine housekeeping are offered in many rooms, though not all accommodations include every feature, so families should verify availability during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu prepared by staff, with snacks offered between dining periods. The kitchen can modify food to meet medical or preference-based needs, including gluten-free choices, mechanical-chopped or puréed textures, thickened liquids, and vegetarian selections, ensuring residents with swallowing issues or dietary restrictions receive appropriate nutrition.
Additional conveniences include outdoor smoking areas, community-wide internet access, and a stair glide that helps residents move safely between floors. Public transportation is nearby, which can simplify family visits and off-site appointments.
