Paddington Place Assisted Living in Bowie, Maryland operates as both an Assisted Living community and a Residential Care Home. The team is prepared to manage residents who wander at any time of day, have a history of elopement, exhibit combative or other behavioral issues, or require wound care. Oxygen management, special diets, and all levels of diabetes care—oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin—are supported. The community also accepts residents under 60 and is equipped to serve those with advanced dementia.
Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, with a nurse on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, an asleep night-shift caregiver is scheduled nightly, and doors are alarmed to deter unsafe exits. The community accepts residents with psychiatric diagnoses and can provide full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfers can be handled via walker, wheelchair, standby supervision, one-person or two-person assist, and even bed-bound support, ensuring continuity of care as needs change.
Accommodations include rooms that may feature a private bathroom, basic furnishings, cable hookup, and the option to paint or decorate; availability of these features can vary by unit. Families can discuss specific room configurations during their visit to find the best fit for their relative’s needs and budget.
Dining follows a set menu prepared three times daily, with snacks available between meals. The kitchen team handles diet modifications, ranging from low-sodium and diabetic menus to other physician-ordered nutritional plans, ensuring residents receive meals that align with medical requirements.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, community-wide internet, and arranged transportation for medical appointments or personal errands, contributing to an overall environment that supports both daily living and ongoing independence.
