Miracle Hands Care Services Assisted Living sits back from a quiet, dead-end street in Lanham, Maryland, surrounded by family homes and parks, and it looks like a big single-story home with a wide porch and plenty of shady trees out front, a spacious yard, and gardens where the residents can walk or just sit outside. The home was founded in 2012 and is managed by Purple Door, LLC, with a licensed practical nurse as owner, and you'll find attentive and pleasant staff who speak English, Armenian, and Italian, always available around the clock to help. The community feels small, only housing a few residents, so people get individualized attention, and there's a calm feeling to the place, with a safe and clean environment.
Residents live in private suites, semi-private, or 1-bedroom rooms, all fully furnished with kitchenettes, private bathrooms, private baths, wheelchair accessible showers, and even full tubs, and everything's maintenance-free, so folks never have to worry about cleaning, cooking, or home upkeep. Daily life goes on with assistance for things like bathing, dressing, grooming, medication, and personal care, including two-person lift help and discreet services for those needing help with catheter, feeding tube, colostomy, or incontinence care. There's always a nurse on staff and the community offers 24-hour awake staff, memory care, and can take care of residents who are prone to wandering, have difficult behaviors, or need behavior management. The memory care area is secure and located in its own building, with specialized technology like bracelets to prevent wandering and help keep everyone safe.
Meal services stand out, using organic ingredients and offering kosher, vegetarian, and special diets for diabetes or allergies, with food served in a family-style dining room or as all-day dining, so residents can eat when they want. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen services are all included, and it keeps everything tidy and comfortable. The set up means people don't have to do chores or cooking, and even arranging healthcare or doctor visits is handled, since transportation and transportation arrangements are included as well, though some services may have an extra cost. Residents get to join in group activities, both indoors and outdoors, like walking the garden paths, tending plants, movie nights, devotional services, and other events that make living there less lonely and help everyone keep a routine. There's also help with outings, errands, and transportation to appointments, plus parking if someone still drives.
Miracle Hands Care Services Assisted Living has a 24-hour call system, internet, cable, air-conditioning, and in-room phone service, so everyone stays connected and comfortable. The staff are highly experienced and offer everything from regular assisted living to memory care, behavioral care, ambulatory, respite, hospice, and even aging in place, and they're able to work with visiting nurses and other healthcare providers when needed. They're ready to handle residents with diabetes, monitoring blood sugar and giving insulin shots, but they don't use sliding scale therapy for insulin. The community's designed for seniors who need help with daily life, but it does accept younger adults under age 55 as well. Everything about the place aims for comfort, wellness, and support during the golden years, with quiet and privacy on a secluded lane, small home-like setting, and a team that knows how to give care for all kinds of needs.
