Hampton Meadows sits in a quiet residential neighborhood in Towson, Maryland, and offers a cozy, home-like setting for seniors who need some help with daily activities. The building's two stories hold both private and semi-private rooms, some with private baths and full tubs, while indoor and outdoor common areas give residents places to relax or join in social gatherings. There's a front porch where folks sit on sunny days and landscaped gardens for walks, plus a dining hall for chef-prepared meals with options for special diets like diabetes care and allergies. The staff stays on duty 24 hours and helps with medication, bathing, dressing, and transfers, whether it's a one-person assist, a two-person job, or with a mechanical lift, making sure that folks who use wheelchairs or walkers are safely cared for.
The community supports different levels of care, from light help with reminders to more support for those with higher medical needs or limited mobility, including non-ambulatory care and incontinence support. There's a memory care program in its own building for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, with a secured setting, special activities, and technology like bracelets and computerized alerts to help keep residents safe if they're likely to wander. The memory care staff handles behavioral needs, provides therapies, and can care for those who have more challenging behaviors or need more supervision, accepting both men and women, even those under 55, as well as people who might try to elope or act out physically.
Housekeeping, laundry, and meals are included, and the staff manages medications, can give injections, check blood sugar, and work with doctors and visiting nurses, physical or occupational therapists, or podiatrists as needed. Transportation is available and there's resident parking, with the building close to bus lines. There are daily activities and wellness programs, devotional services for spiritual needs, exercise and recreational programs, a beautician onsite, and lots of cozy spaces for gatherings or some quiet time alone. Hampton Meadows takes part in Baltimore County's Senior Assisted Living Subsidy program, so some qualifying residents may get financial help.
The owner manages operations, and staff tailor care plans to each person, helping keep their independence and dignity while also providing care and peace of mind. Safety stays a focus, with emergency alert systems and a secure environment, especially important in memory care. Room rates for a semi-private or one-bedroom memory care unit typically run about $3,000. The emphasis here stays on letting people age in place and feel at home, without the feeling of a big institution, supported by a friendly, well-trained team that tries to make each day engaging and comfortable.
