Second Home Senior Living in Glenelg, Maryland, operates as both an assisted-living residence and a residential care home, allowing it to serve older adults who require varying levels of daily help. The community is equipped to manage residents who wander during either the morning or evening, supports advanced dementia conditions, and provides wound care, oxygen administration, and special-diet oversight. Diabetic management encompasses oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin, and the staff is also prepared to assist adults under 60 when needed. Podiatry visits are handled on site, reducing the need for off-campus appointments.
A nurse is on call around the clock, and the building maintains 24-hour staffing with background-checked personnel and door alarms; the rear grounds are fenced for additional security. Residents who need complete help with bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting receive full assistance. Transfer help ranges from standby supervision to one-person support and accommodates walkers and wheelchairs. These services are delivered within a setting designed to meet changing medical needs without requiring frequent moves.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and most come furnished, though families may opt to bring personal items. Residents can paint or otherwise decorate their space, and many rooms include cable access, but not every accommodation has the same features, so interested families should confirm specific room details during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu that rotates regularly. Staff members monitor dietary requirements and can adjust textures, portion sizes, or nutrient content for residents who need diabetic, cardiac, or other therapeutic diets. Snacks are stocked and available throughout the day to support blood-sugar stability and general nutrition.
Community amenities include resident parking, outdoor smoking areas, and full wheelchair accessibility throughout common areas. A barber and beauty shop, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services round out the service package, giving residents practical options for grooming, connectivity, recreation, and worship without leaving the property.
