Country Acres Assisted Living sits in a quiet area on Collison Drive in Westminster, Maryland, with a cozy home-like two-story building surrounded by 5.5 acres of calm land, so folks can enjoy the gardens, walking paths, and outdoor picnic spots if they feel like being outside for a while, plus there are places for indoor and outdoor relaxation, so nobody feels cooped up. The community only has space for up to sixteen residents, which means everyone gets more personal attention and help when they need it, with trained caregivers around all day and night. The staff includes a manager/owner and a head caregiver, so close supervision happens, and residents always get help with daily things like bathing, dressing, toileting, grooming, managing medicine, and even moving around the building if that's ever hard for them, with Level III care available for those who need more involved help like memory care, diabetic care, high acuity care, or incontinence assistance.
Every resident has a private, furnished room with a phone for convenience, and there are common areas inside and out for folks to gather together if they're feeling social, with a dining room for homemade meals and snacks served three times a day. Meals are cooked with different diets in mind, especially for people with allergies, diabetes, or high blood pressure, and snacks come twice a day so nobody needs to worry about going hungry between meals. Residents can get their laundry and housekeeping handled for them, and the building uses an emergency alert system to help keep everyone safe. Beauty care is available on-site at the salon, with licensed cosmetologists handling haircuts and grooming, so residents always have a way to get cleaned up if they want, plus a barber or parlor. There's also a book room for folks who like to read quietly and rooms for recreation, where activities happen every day-things like music therapy, pet visits, tabletop games, workout schedules, music programs, and movie nights to keep people entertained and active.
Transportation gets arranged for doctor's appointments, errands, and even visits to faith-based facilities, with complimentary or paid options, so people don't have to worry about making it to important places, and the manager will also help set up doctor's visits if needed. The activity program has social, religious, and community evening events planned often, trying to keep everyone active and connected, with a focus on welcoming all ages sometimes for intergenerational gatherings since being around younger folks can make the days feel brighter. Home stays are an option too, if someone's only looking for a short term spot to recover or rest, and medication management along with help attending medical appointments rounds out the care.
Country Acres Assisted Living is licensed as a residential care home for adults over eighteen, with the building, programs, and skilled staff aiming to give support to those needing a maintenance-free lifestyle, in a familiar and comfortable atmosphere, while always treating everyone with respect and a sense of dignity throughout their later years.
