BestCare Assisted Living - Reisterstown North sits at 64 Main Street in Reisterstown, Maryland, and offers different senior care options like assisted living, memory care, independent living, respite care, and hospice care, and they even provide short-term stays if someone needs them, and folks don't have to worry about wheelchairs because the parking and entrance are both accessible, and there's licensed and certified staff from the Maryland Board of Nursing around, who people describe as nurturing and kind, always focusing on providing quality care in a cozy country setting with landscaped grounds and a big wrap-around porch, plus a unique all-season Florida Room for spending time indoors when the weather turns bad. The place has a game room and spaces for social activities, and there's WiFi, cable TV, guest parking, and a full-service beauty spa and barbershop, although fees apply, and the dining options take place in a large dining room or a private dining room for special occasions. Residents can choose from private or semi-private rooms, with couple suites available, and there are more private room options in the Westminster location they run. The staff design a dedicated care plan for each resident, and provide services like weekly housekeeping, laundry, daily trash removal, meal preparation, health and wellness programs, arts and crafts, devotional activities, walking and wheelchair assistance, transportation, and personal care assistants, and they've got safety features like a fire safety system, emergency call response, advanced security, and a sprinkler system. The facility also offers what they call "EMJS Wholistic Care ALF," with holistic care options, along with "Total living and care options" and "Assisted living solutions," which focus on helping folks stay as independent as they can while still getting help for issues like diabetes, incontinence, need for high acuity or non-ambulatory care, or memory issues-there's even 24-hour supervision for seniors with Alzheimer's or dementia, with special activities to help keep those folks engaged. There are indoor and outdoor common areas, and large sitting rooms, plus a main TV room with a big satellite TV so there's always somewhere to sit and relax or visit with others, and there's a real effort to create a welcoming home that doesn't forget about the importance of family or the individual, and since they accept SALS and Medicaid Waiver payments, the place stays open to people with different financial needs.
BestCare Assisted Living - Reisterstown North
64 Main St, Reisterstown, MD, 21136- Assisted living
Caring staff but dirty, unsafe
I have mixed feelings. Some staff (Catherine, Debbie, Ebony, Mary) were caring, residents got three meals a day, snacks, and regular activities, and visiting was allowed 24/7 - but the facility felt dark, dirty and smelly. I observed poor hygiene, lost clothing, medication errors/overmedication and infections, privacy breaches (I heard reports the owner lied and videotaped visitors), nights were short-staffed (often only one person), and hospice/final-hours care was distressing; I would caution others before choosing this place.
