Gale House is a small board and care home for up to four residents where people live together and get daily care in a cozy setting, and the place is close to Baltimore public transit with options including the Shot Tower Metro just a two-minute walk away, several bus lines like 21, 54, and CITYLINK GOLD, the Baltimore Penn Station for trains, and the LIGHT RAILLINK, so getting around is easy for visits and appointments. The home offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, skilled nursing, and hospice services, so people can pick the right level of support, and if someone is living more independently but needs extra help, then staff will arrange for the right services, and there's also direct engagement with providers, meaning no middlemen, so families talk with the people caring for their loved one.
Gale House has 24/7 staff on-site for help with things like bathing, dressing, transfers, and managing medicines, and they'll also handle housekeeping, linen changes, and cooking, using organic foods when possible, so residents don't have to worry about chores. The place has furnished private suites or shared rooms with kitchenettes and private bathrooms, as well as cable TV, air-conditioning, telephone, and high-speed internet, so everyone stays comfortable, and with their emergency call system, residents know help is always nearby. They prepare meals and accommodate special diets like diabetes, serve food in a shared dining room, and schedule daily activities, so people have things to look forward to, whether it's movie nights or other community events.
For memory care and Alzheimer's support, Gale House has secure environments and offers specialized programs and activities that help keep memory skills active, plus round-the-clock supervision and medical support. If someone needs wound care, rehabilitation, or skilled nursing, those services can be arranged too, and the staff works with healthcare providers to coordinate doctor visits, therapy, and medication needs, arranging needed transportation. The place is maintenance-free, so residents focus on enjoying daily life and social connections, whether inside in the garden or during scheduled outings. There are resources for families, like guides and state-specific details, and the home encourages open communication to make sure care fits each person's needs.
