Broad Creek Manor Assisted Living

Broad Creek Manor Assisted Living sits in a pretty spot at 4411 Flintville Road in Pylesville, Maryland, about 12.3 miles outside of Bel Air North, and the place has room for 11 people, offering both studio and shared rooms, all with private bathrooms made to fit walkers and some wheelchairs, and while there aren't endless luxury features, residents get basic housing, care, and health support, and staff focus on helping everyone stay as independent as possible. The owners are occupational therapists who watch out for safety and well-being, and they've got staff who are trained for different levels of care-including memory care for folks with dementia, skilled nursing, rehabilitation services, and home care-in fact, trained staff are around all day and night with a low staff-to-resident ratio, about one for every five people, with a manager who's completed extra courses for managing care. People get help with daily needs like meals, medicine, dressing, and bathing, plus a licensed medication tech on staff, and twice a month a nurse practitioner drops in, while a registered nurse is on call, and the place even has podiatrist house calls and lines up rides for outside doctors if needed. There's a mix of things to do, too-everything from devotional and spiritual activities, games, gardening, cooking clubs, music, art and crafts, pet therapy, classic car shows, and even a senior prom, with a plan to add a bigger activities room and a beauty salon later on, so there's always a little something to look forward to if folks want to join in. Food is another part of life here, where a dietician plans the menu, cooks use good ingredients, and they can handle food allergies or special diets; everyone eats together in the dining room, with a coffee and tea bar open for snacks, plus special birthday meals to make folks feel celebrated. Families can step back to catch their breath, too, since Broad Creek Manor offers respite care for people needing a short stay-maybe a week or up to a month-including all regular services, and home health care providers treat residents on-site. For anyone who needs long-term help, there are services ranging from independent living to skilled nursing, plus support for daily activities, and for those with memory challenges, staff keep an eye out and find ways to help recall memories, keep them safe, and manage medications. The facility is licensed by the State of Maryland, and they follow the rules for safety, care, and services, while personalized care plans shape how each resident gets what they need, and the focus is always on giving just the right amount of help so everyone can do as much for themselves as possible. The place averages good marks, with a 4.6 out of 5 rating based on 17 reviews, and has a bit of a reputation for having attentive staff and offering good support, though there are no public details about luxury extras-just basic, dependable care and company, with some plans to grow amenities over time.
