Montgomery Eldercare III operates as both an assisted-living residence and a residential care home, giving families two regulated care models under one roof. The team is prepared to manage a wide range of health needs, including residents who wander, exhibit behavioral issues, require oxygen therapy, follow special diets, or are younger than 60. Diabetic management is available for those on oral medication, insulin injections, or sliding-scale dosing, and advanced dementia conditions can also be accommodated.
Care delivery is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, an on-call nurse around the clock, and background-checked personnel who remain awake through the night. The building is secured 24 hours a day, doorways are alarmed, and transfer assistance ranges from standby supervision to two-person support for walkers and wheelchairs. Full assistance is available for bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, and a visiting podiatrist provides on-site foot care.
Private and semiprivate suites come furnished, but residents may supply their own décor and can request wall colors that suit personal tastes; not every room includes all features such as cable hookup, so it is important to confirm availability during a tour. Independent-living residents benefit from medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, and laundry services that help maintain self-reliance without giving up safety.
Dining follows a set menu with scheduled meal times, and dietitians review physician-ordered modifications—low-sodium, diabetic, or texture-altered offerings are standard. Snacks are stocked and accessible between meals. Independent-living tenants can enroll in a monthly meal plan, receiving the same nutritional oversight while retaining the option to cook in their own kitchenette if they prefer.
The property is fully wheelchair-accessible, has community-wide internet access for email and streaming, and holds regular on-site religious services. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, shopping, and social outings, helping residents stay connected to the larger Silver Spring community.
