Stepping Stone At Manokin Assisted Living Program sits in a small, quiet Maryland neighborhood, offering a comfortable, home-like space for older adults who require help with daily tasks. The community has 16 assisted living units and focuses on providing personal care and medical support to each resident, making sure everyone gets the help they need while encouraging independence when possible. Staff members offer 24-hour supervision and help with bathing, dressing, medication management, meal preparation, and transfers, and they're trained to support those who need wheelchairs or other mobility assistance. The program features unique offerings called "Stepping Stone" and "Manokin," each designed to match care to varying needs, from those who remain mostly independent to those who require more regular support. Residents enjoy nutritious meals in a shared dining room with options for special diets, including those for diabetes or food allergies.
The community arranges transportation to doctor's appointments, provides regular housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, and handles linens, so residents can focus on social and recreational activities, daily events, and things like movie nights or group walks on the outdoor pathways. For those wanting a short-term stay, respite care is available. Rooms come furnished and are set up for privacy and safety, with emergency alert systems, cable television, Wi-Fi, and telephone service. Staff coordinate closely with healthcare providers, handle medicine schedules, and make sure each person's needs are carefully followed. Residents can expect friendly faces, well-planned routines, and a warm environment where attention is paid to both comfort and peace of mind.
