Grand Oasis Alf in Towson, MD operates both as an assisted living residence and a residential care home, allowing it to support residents who require varying levels of daily oversight and medical management. The community is equipped to handle residents who need oxygen, follow special diets, or manage diabetes with either oral medications or injections. Staff members are trained to monitor moderate dementia conditions and can remain awake and available throughout the night to assist residents who are up after bedtime.
A registered nurse or licensed practical nurse is on staff, and a nurse is on-site around the clock to oversee care plans, respond to alarms, and coordinate with physicians when health status changes. Bedrooms and common areas are protected by door alarms, and every resident has access to pull cords that alert staff at any hour. Residents who need full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, or toileting receive direct hands-on help. Transfer options cover the full range from standby supervision for walker users to one-person or two-person transfers and bed-bound support, ensuring mobility needs are met safely.
Private and semiprivate accommodations can be furnished upon move-in, and many rooms include cable access. Housekeeping is performed on a regular schedule, and laundry services are planned so that clothing and linens stay clean without residents having to manage these tasks themselves. Not every room includes each feature; prospective residents should confirm which amenities are available in the specific accommodation they select.
Meals are prepared to order, and the kitchen honors physician-ordered or resident-requested diet modifications, including low-sugar or other therapeutic menus. Staff coordinate closely with nursing to maintain compliance with diabetic, low-sodium, and other specialized nutrition plans, while offering menu choices that allow residents to exercise personal preference.
The property is wheelchair accessible throughout, offers internet access for email or video calls, and maintains communal gardens where residents can spend time outdoors or walk with visiting family members.
