Riderville in Laurel, MD operates as a residential care home and is equipped to support residents with a wide range of clinical needs. The team is experienced in caring for individuals who wander, whether during the day or night, and can manage behaviors that may become combative. Residents using oxygen, following special diets, or managing diabetes—whether by oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale dosing—receive consistent monitoring and timely interventions. Staff are also trained to work with advanced dementia conditions, ensuring that memory-related challenges are met with appropriate supervision and care.
Around-the-clock safety measures back up this medical care. A nurse is on call 24 hours a day, background checks are completed on all staff, and the night shift remains awake so residents are never unattended. Exterior doors are alarmed to help prevent unsafe exits, and on-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Full assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Transfer options range from standby support and one-person assists to Hoyer lift transfers and bed-bound care, accommodating walkers, wheelchairs, and residents who require two-person help.
Riderville’s accommodations include private and semi-private rooms, each wired for cable service, though not every room has every feature. Rooms are intentionally arranged to allow mobility devices to pass comfortably, with layouts designed to keep pathways clear and reduce fall risks.
Dining follows a set menu that is adjusted for diet modifications such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanically altered textures. Three main meals are scheduled daily, and snacks are available between meals to maintain consistent nutrition and blood-sugar levels.
The residence is wheelchair accessible throughout and provides internet access for residents who wish to stay connected with family, friends, or online activities.
