St. Mary’S Nursing Center Inc in Leonardtown, MD operates as a skilled nursing facility, delivering the round-the-clock supervision and clinical oversight expected of a nursing home. Residents receive assistance with activities of daily living, medication administration, and ongoing monitoring by licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants. On-site rehabilitation therapists and visiting physicians coordinate to address post-acute needs, manage chronic conditions, and support recovery goals.
The center also offers respite care, enabling family caregivers to arrange short-term stays for their loved ones while maintaining consistent medical oversight. During a respite stay, residents have access to the same nursing services, therapy programs, and care planning available to long-term residents, helping to ensure continuity and stability regardless of the length of stay.
Resident accommodations vary, and not every room comes with identical features. Many units are pre-wired for personal phone service to keep residents connected, and on-site parking is available for residents who maintain a vehicle or for visiting family members. Room layouts are designed for ease of mobility, with accessible bathrooms and space for personal belongings.
Meals are prepared on the premises and served three times daily, with registered dietitians reviewing menus to meet medical and nutritional requirements. Therapeutic diets, texture-modified meals, and physician-ordered supplements are available to accommodate individual health plans. Staff members provide assistance with eating when needed, and alternate selections are offered to respect personal preferences.
The community maintains an activity center that serves as the hub for group programs, recreational therapy, and social events. Regularly scheduled activities encourage participation and help residents remain engaged both physically and cognitively.
