Hands Full Of Love in Baltimore, Maryland, operates as both an assisted-living residence and a small residential care home. Residents receive around-the-clock supervision from trained caregivers who provide help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and continence care. Licensed nurses oversee medication management, monitor vitals, and coordinate with each resident’s primary physician to maintain individualized care plans. For residents who need ongoing clinical attention, on-site staff can arrange lab work, visiting nurse services, and physical, occupational, or speech therapy through local providers.
Beyond the core medical services, the community maintains a fall-prevention program that includes regular strength and balance checks, room assessments, and prompt follow-up after any incident. Caregivers update electronic health records daily so that physicians and family members can track changes in condition. Scheduled transportation is available for dialysis, chemotherapy, and specialist visits, and staff accompany residents when extra assistance is required. Hospice coordination and short-term respite stays are offered when approved by attending physicians, ensuring continuity of care during transitions.
Resident rooms are available in private and semi-private layouts. Depending on the unit selected, features may include step-in showers with grab bars, wheelchair-accessible doorways, individual climate controls, basic cable, and Wi-Fi. Housekeeping, linen service, and maintenance are provided on a set schedule. Not all accommodations have every feature, so families are encouraged to review specific room types during a tour to confirm what is included.
Meals are prepared three times daily in an on-site kitchen, with menus reviewed by a dietitian to meet nutritional guidelines and physician-ordered diets. Pureed textures, low-sodium options, and diabetic-friendly selections can be arranged as needed. Residents typically dine together in a communal room, though tray service to the room is available when medically necessary. Snacks and beverages are stocked throughout the day, and hydration checks are performed on a regular schedule. As with the apartments, not every dining option is available to all residents; the care team determines what is appropriate based on medical orders and dietary assessments.
