Kenwood Care Glen Hill is a medium-sized senior living home in Dayton, Maryland, about 5.3 miles from Ashton-Sandy Spring, and sits in a quiet, remote location with trees and open space, so it feels peaceful and welcoming, and some people appreciate the slower pace away from the city. It's one of four homes managed by Kenwood Care in Howard County, serving up to 16 residents, and offers both assisted living and memory care services for seniors who can get around but need help with things like bathing, meals, housework, and medication. The staff includes Alzheimer's and dementia experts and provides 24-hour care, with a caregiver ratio of about 2.5 residents to one staff member, which means there's always someone to help day and night, and they stay awake during the night for safety.
Rooms at Glen Hill are all fully furnished and come in different layouts-there are studio, semi-private, shared, and companion options-plus, rooms sit on the ground floor and include features like wheelchair-accessible showers, cable or FiOS TV, high-speed Wi-Fi, and private phone lines, so folks have what they'd need at home. There's a secure patio, outdoor space for activities, open dining rooms, and easy access with full ADA compliance and lots of guest parking. Residents eat in a dining room with meal choices, including low-sodium and no-sugar dishes, and can enjoy recreational programs like stretching classes.
Medical care is steady here, since there are visiting geriatric doctors, diagnostic services onsite, and care for conditions like diabetes, incontinence, and trouble walking. Everything is included in a fixed monthly rate, with no extra fees for services or signing up, and the rate stays the same while someone lives there, which helps families plan their budgets. Kenwood Care's been family-run for over 30 years and runs other communities in places like Fulton and Laurel, always aiming for a warm and home-like setting with live-in, trained staff, and a strong reputation in the area for their hands-on approach. Glen Hill has stayed known as the highest-rated assisted living option in its city, though the overall review scores have room for improvement. The facility offers the basics-big rooms, steady care, medical help, good meals, and a steady routine-in an honest and simple way for older folks who need extra help every day.
