Bredd Health Services, LLC in Columbia, Maryland operates as both an assisted-living residence and a licensed residential care home. The community is equipped to support residents with moderate dementia and provides targeted oversight for individuals who wander during the day or at night, those who remain up all night, and anyone requiring oxygen therapy or wound care. Clinical protocols are in place for residents under 60 and for diabetics whether they manage with oral medication, scheduled injections, or sliding-scale coverage. Special diet orders are accepted and monitored by staff to align with physician directives.
Registered and licensed practical nurses are on the roster, with a nurse on call around the clock. Staff members undergo background checks, work an overnight asleep shift, and rely on a fenced rear yard, door alarms, and a Wander Guard system to maintain resident security. On-site podiatry visits reduce off-site trips for foot and ankle concerns. Direct care staff provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Transfer help ranges from simple standby supervision to one-person lifts for bed-bound residents, and the team is trained to handle walkers and wheelchairs safely.
Private and semi-private rooms are available furnished, and select accommodations include cable service; prospective residents should verify which rooms include these features. Rooms are laid out to allow wheelchair access and placement of personal items without cluttering pathways.
Meals follow a rotating set menu, but on-order selections are available at each service to accommodate preference or physician-ordered diet modifications. Snacks are stocked throughout the day, and staff monitor intake to ensure compliance with diabetic and other specialized nutritional plans.
Additional amenities include on-site resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, full wheelchair accessibility, community-wide internet access, scheduled religious services in the building, and a stair glide for residents who prefer to use upper-level common areas. Public bus routes stop nearby, making it convenient for family visits or medical appointments off campus.
