Golden Crest Corporation III in Hampstead, Maryland, operates as both an Assisted Living community and a Residential Care Home. The staff is equipped to handle wound care, oxygen management, specialized diets, and the needs of residents under 60. Diabetic care is available for those on oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale regimens, and the team is trained to support residents with moderate dementia. Medical oversight is strengthened by an RN or LPN on staff and a licensed nurse on site around the clock, with an additional nurse on call 24/7.
Additional safety measures include door alarms, a pull-cord system that connects directly to 911, and Personal Emergency Response Systems that do the same. A dedicated Activity Director coordinates daily programming, while full assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Residents who use walkers or wheelchairs can receive standby help or a one-person transfer as needed. On-site medical services include regular podiatry visits and access to a therapy room for rehabilitation or strength maintenance.
Private and semiprivate accommodations are offered, and many rooms come furnished and wired for cable television. Housekeeping is provided, although not every unit includes all of these features, so prospective residents should confirm which amenities are present in the specific suite they select.
Meals follow a standard menu with the option to order alternate dishes. Snacks are available throughout the day, and the kitchen staff can handle diet modifications such as gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chopped, puréed, and thickened-liquid plans.
Residents have access to off-street parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, internet service, and scheduled transportation for medical appointments through the community shuttle.
