In Good Hands Assisted Living

In Good Hands Assisted Living serves around five residents in a small, home-like setting, focusing on non-acute, long-term care, which can make it more affordable than a full-time nursing home, and folks stay in private or semi-private rooms, so they always have their own space if they want it. Staff members who've been trained are there to give care that's helpful, kind, and respectful, focusing on each resident's needs, whether that's help with daily living, diabetic and incontinence care, non-ambulatory care, or just a gentle hand with meals and activities, and the team does everything possible to keep the place spotless and easy to get around for folks who use walkers or wheelchairs, including wheelchair accessible showers and wide open common areas, both inside and out. Residents get nutritious meals, with vegetarian and kosher choices, and they can enjoy two cafes right on site, plus there are dining services so nobody's left out. The setting is made to encourage community but also to respect privacy, letting people join activities, head over to a nearby theater or place of worship, or just relax in one of the shared or private spaces. In Good Hands Assisted Living is a licensed Residential Service Agency in Maryland, which means it's allowed to provide medical and personal care, as well as skilled nursing, memory care, independent living, and respite stays, and the staff's used to helping new folks move in with dignity and thoughtfulness, which brings families peace of mind. The location is on Pulaski Highway in Joppa, close to several pharmacies, doctors, transportation options, and dining spots, so it's simple for families to visit or for residents to get what they need. It doesn't take Medicare payments because it's not certified by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and it's not BBB accredited, but it does have proper state licenses, including those from the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The facility's run by Ms. Natalie Hudson, and tours are available by arrangement if families want to see how the community feels or talk with residents and staff about daily life there.
