Keswick Multi-Care Center

Keswick Multi-Care Center sits at 700 W 40th St in Baltimore, MD and serves older adults with a wide range of care and living options, and you know they're always busy with something new-like their recent renovation project which turned their three-story, 18,719 square foot building into a place with a yoga room, dance room, exercise room, display kitchen for cooking classes, art room, classroom space, and places for folks to gather. They're licensed by the State of Maryland and are certified for both Medicaid and Medicare, while the center's got 175 private rooms in the long-term care unit for those who need more support, and the staff offers medical services, nursing, pastoral care, therapeutic recreation, social work, and memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, on top of providing rehab like physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Folks can get help with daily needs such as dressing, bathing, eating, and toileting, and laundry and housekeeping services are available, since some days it's just about having a hot prepared meal, which they serve once or twice a day, and keeping up with chores. Keswick's got independent living options but also provides adult day care, home care, hospice, respite care for caregivers, and assisted living choices that fit different needs, from residential-style homes to apartments, plus the Wise & Well Center gives people over 50 a place aim toward health and wellness, using programs like Forever Strong, Shape, Sketch, Smile!, Qigong, and Strength to the Core, which keep everyone active, creative, and engaged. The goal is to help older adults live at home longer, with the MD Community For Life program and Wise Well programs offering support, classes, and services for those who'd rather not move to nursing homes unless they really need to. Keswick is open 24/7, welcomes visitors and residents of any age, and has ADA accessibility, coming under MedStar Health's umbrella, and the staff does ongoing cultural competency training to better serve Baltimore's diverse community. Their mission focuses on compassion, patient-centered care, and preserving independence and dignity for each resident, along with supporting caregivers through a resource center, and everything they do-nursing, rehab, social work, health programs-tries to keep everyone connected, moving, and as healthy as possible.
