Comfort Care Assisted Living sits at 8024 Solley Road in Glen Burnie, Maryland, and has room for up to five residents, so it feels small and home-like instead of crowded, and people get to know each other well, which can make it easier to settle in. The place offers both assisted living and memory care, and there are senior apartments for people who want a bit more independence, and what people notice right away are the daily activities that help fill the day, community-sponsored gatherings, birthday parties, arts and crafts, movie nights, exercise classes, and music sessions. The staff handles meal preparation, using organic food when possible, serving meals three times a day in the Magnolia Dining Room, and they make sure to work with residents on dietary needs so even those with special diets get a plan that fits them, and the culinary staff tries to make the meals both tasty and healthy.
Residents get a choice between studio suites, shared apartments, or one-bedroom spaces, which can have kitchenettes and always have ADA-compliant bathrooms, grab bars, non-slip floors, and pull cords in every room for quick help, so people feel safer and better able to move around. Wi-Fi and cable TV are available, and there's air conditioning and telephone service, which helps everyone stay connected; some rooms are fully furnished, but there can be arrangements if someone wants to bring a few things from home.
People receive help with daily needs, including bathing, dressing, and moving around, and there's staff on site 24/7 for support, and the 24-hour call system means somebody is always close by. Residents who need more care, such as dementia or Parkinson's care, will find Comfort Care has experience providing personal plans, and the monthly nurse checks and wellness assessments by a doctor also keep an eye on any changes in health. Medication is managed by staff, and there's coordination with outside healthcare providers, which makes doctor appointments or health care less stressful, and if residents need to go out, free transportation and help arranging rides is provided.
Apart from meals and health care, other offerings include a garden and outdoor spaces, walking paths, a game room, library, theatre, fitness center, and a chapel for those who want it, and there's a Heartwood Family Parlor for visits or celebrations, as well as a Serenity Room and Evergreen Activity Lounge for quiet time or socializing. Comfort Care handles cleaning, laundry, linen service, house upkeep, and maintenance, so residents don't have to worry about chores, and there's a busy calendar of activities for people to join if they'd like. The community offers help with continence management, manual feeding if needed, and even speech or physical therapy on site. Respite care is available for families that need a short break, and the facility supports independence but remains ready to assist at any time, which can be comforting for both residents and their loved ones.
The environment is noticeably calm and homey, with keypad entry, emergency response systems, panic buttons, secured grounds, and expanded visiting hours. Comfort Care is pet-friendly, which suits residents who want their companions nearby. Parking for guests is available, and the staff, who are licensed and trained, can help with move-in coordination as well as moving assistance if needed. The goal at Comfort Care is to respect each resident's dignity, giving plenty of choices and the right amount of personal support in a well-kept, safe setting.
