Four Seasons Assisted Living, located at 52 E Broadway in Bel Air, MD, cares for up to 15 residents in a quiet, fully furnished setting, and the place feels a bit like a small community where people know each other and the staff really do help with all the usual daily things, like bathing, dressing, moving about, and taking medications on time, which is something a lot of folks find reassuring, especially when you want to hold onto as much independence as you can. Residents live in either semi-private rooms, studios, or one-bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, plus simple comforts-Wi-Fi, cable or satellite TV, telephones, and basic furnishings, so you're not living in an empty room or dealing with any fuss about furniture.
Meal services include three homemade meals every day, and they can work around dietary needs-for diabetes, food allergies, and other restrictions-while still sticking to set mealtimes, and the staff can prep and serve the meals, wash linens, clean rooms, and handle laundry, freeing residents from those chores. General healthcare is on hand for support with conditions like diabetes and incontinence, memory care needs, and hospice care, and there's 24-hour supervision and a community-wide emergency alert system so you feel safer at all times, even if you need help getting around or need non-ambulatory care.
Residents can rely on the staff to help with daily activities such as bathing, grooming, transfers, and toileting, and medication management is part of the regular healthcare support, with an emphasis on coordination with outside providers if that becomes necessary, which gives a little peace of mind when medical details get more complicated. Staff receive training for caregiving and handle most non-medical needs, and there's always someone on site for help both day and night.
The community keeps life active and socially engaging, with an ongoing calendar of events like board games, music therapy, animal visits, movie nights, and craft and exercise programs, plus occasional devotional activities off-site, and the grounds have a garden and outdoor spaces with walking paths for outside relaxation, which people tend to enjoy when the weather's good. Amenities include a dining room, indoor and outdoor common areas, a book room, possibly a spa or sauna, a wellness room, and sometimes a barber or salon-these make day-to-day life a little easier and let everyone have some simple comforts. Four Seasons Assisted Living offers respite care for short-term stays when families need a break, provides transportation for errands, doctor visits, and church, and accepts Medicaid waivers and senior assisted living subsidies for eligible residents. The facility is licensed by Maryland's Department of Social Services, stays within caregiver-to-resident ratios, and meets local safety inspections.
Everything here runs on a smaller, personalized scale, so residents often feel heard and supported by staff who know their routines and like to keep everyday life as comfortable and independent as possible.
