Alice Byrd Tawes Nursing Home sits at 201 Hall Highway in Crisfield, Maryland, and tries to help seniors who want a safe, supportive place to live, so the building has skilled nursing care with both 12- to 16-hour nursing coverage and 24-hour supervision, which means someone's usually there if help's needed, and there's move-in coordination services so families won't feel lost when starting out. People can get personal care, such as help bathing, dressing, or moving around, plus there are medication management services, laundry, and housekeeping, and meals are made on-site with restaurant-style dining, where meals fit special diets, like for diabetes.
The place has amenities that make daily life a little easier, such as a beauty salon, cable or satellite TV, computers, a small library and reading area, Wi-Fi for those who want it, a fitness room, and even a gaming room, which helps residents keep busy if they want to. Transportation is arranged for doctor appointments and for outings, so people aren't just stuck indoors, and it helps when getting to medical care. Health services stretch from nursing and rehab to visits from doctors for regular care or emergencies, even covering some surgical care and help with recovery, and the staff gets specialized training for Alzheimer's, dementia, and home care, so families with memory concerns can feel a bit more confident.
Daily scheduled activities are on the calendar, and sometimes residents run activities on their own, which keeps things lively, and mental wellness programs offer a way to help with both memory and mood. For those on Medicaid, or families looking for more support, staff can answer questions and have training to help guide them through, so the transition isn't too confusing. Altogether, Alice Byrd Tawes Nursing Home is for seniors who want care nearby, regular meals, cleaning, and activities, and a place that tries to handle many types of health needs, all close to home in Crisfield.
