Patapsco Healthcare, also known as Peak Healthcare at Patapsco, sits at 9109 Liberty Rd in Randallstown, MD and serves about 124 residents each day, now under the management of Jake Lighten since August 2023, with ownership split between Jake Lighten and Jack Paneth through Granite Md Holdco LLC. The facility holds 172 certified beds, offering round-the-clock skilled nursing, rehabilitation services, memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, palliative and hospice care, as well as short-term respite care, all supported by care plans tailored to each person's needs. Residents can get help with bathing, dressing, incontinence management, and daily activities, and there are physical, occupational, and speech therapies for those who need them, plus social activities, ADA accessibility, and cultural competency training for staff.
The home operates Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, focusing on safe, supportive care and a sense of community, with special attention to family caregivers and long-term care support, including guidance on insurance and resources for families. Despite offering expert guidance and comprehensive resources, recent inspection reports show the community has struggled in some areas. Inspectors found 124 total deficiencies-24 in the last standard inspection-including four about infection control, and a pharmacy service deficiency (F0761) where drugs weren't always stored or labeled correctly, creating a serious risk for residents. There's also a violation regarding freedom from abuse, neglect, and exploitation, though this one affected only a few people and was less severe. Infection control issues have led to fines totaling $16,801 and several official citations, which is well-documented. Nurse turnover sits high at nearly 62%, above the state average, and nurse staffing comes in at 3.67 hours per resident per day, falling a bit below what's typical in Maryland. Direct care and supervision remain steady, but these marks do point out areas that need attention.
The community has developed a reputation for personal and compassionate care, putting relationships and resident dignity at the center, with an average 3.2 star rating out of 31 reviews reflecting mixed experiences. Patapsco Healthcare offers resources for both inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, memory care services, and long-term support, aiming to create meaningful connections for everyone. The community keeps the focus on helping residents feel valued and cared for as they go about daily life.
