Parry Home Assisted Living in Silver Spring, MD offers three levels of care—Assisted Living, Residential Care Home, and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents with wandering behaviors in the morning or evening, a history of elopement, advanced dementia, behavioral issues, or a need to be up all night can be accepted and closely monitored. Medical protocols are in place for wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetes management, whether on oral medications, injections, or sliding scale. The community can continue caring for individuals as needs progress, including those who become bedbound or require full transfer support.
Around-the-clock clinical oversight is provided by an RN or LPN on staff, a 24-hour nurse on call, and night-shift caregivers who remain awake. Background checks are completed for all employees, doors are alarmed, and a personal emergency response system alerts staff when needed. On-site medical services include visiting podiatry, dental care, a therapy room for rehabilitation, and acceptance of residents with psychiatric diagnoses. Full assistance can be given with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, while mobility needs are met whether a resident walks with a cane, uses a wheelchair, needs one- or two-person transfers, or requires a Hoyer lift.
Private and semi-private rooms come furnished, and residents may bring décor or paint to personalize their space; however, not every room has every feature such as in-room cable, so prospective residents should confirm availability. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are included, and maintenance addresses routine concerns. Independent Living residents on campus can opt into medication-management monitoring, weekly housekeeping, laundry service, and a monthly meal plan.
The kitchen serves a set menu with snacks always available, and trays can be delivered for in-room dining. A private dining room is reserved for family visits or celebrations. Diet modifications are routinely managed, including gluten-free selections, vegetarian meals, mechanical-chopped or puréed diets, and thickened liquids.
Residents have access to a wheelchair-friendly layout, an on-site barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, a movie room, and community internet access. A stair glide supports safe movement between levels. Scheduled transportation is provided for appointments and outings, and the property sits close to public transit for additional convenience.
