Review

Baltimore Street Care Home in Baltimore, Maryland has received positive reviews from multiple individuals who have had family members placed there. One reviewer mentioned that the care home charged less than others while still providing excellent care for their mother. However, due to her declining health, they made the decision to transfer her elsewhere.

Another individual shared their experience with both of their grandparents at Baltimore House. Their grandfather spent his final days in a comfortable and clean room and received exceptional care. The reviewer also praised the home for not feeling like a hospital setting and commended the staff for treating their grandmother like family during her four-plus months of residence. They also appreciated the comfort provided by the home and the organic and healthy meals served to patients.

In 2006, another person's father was diagnosed with terminal cancer and spent his last eight days at Baltimore House before passing away. Despite the short duration of his stay, this individual was impressed by the cleanliness and professionalism of the home. They remembered how residents engaged in board games outside their loved one's room, as well as the beautiful flower garden and delicious food.

Fast forward to November 2016 when this person's mother experienced a hard fall at home. Seeking assistance with daily activities, they turned to Baltimore House once again. Finding comfort in knowing that their mother is being properly taken care of and treated with respect, they appreciate the homelike environment provided by Baltimore House. The reviewer commends them for maintaining a clean facility adorned with flowers on the patio, bird feeders attracting finches, homemade food, and most importantly, a sense of safety for their loved one.

The care home is described as a small group type facility accommodating 10 residents in private rooms equipped for those with physical disabilities. Both the building and grounds are well-maintained, giving off an overall clean appearance. Housecleaning and laundry services are provided by staff members.

Food at Baltimore House is prepared fresh on-site, with three meals and snacks provided daily. While the food is deemed acceptable, it may not be exceptional according to one reviewer's opinion.

The care home accepts both assisted living and hospice residents. Caregivers are certified professionals, with the facility managed by a husband and wife team. They work in collaboration with hospice nurses and provide transportation to doctor appointments for residents. However, one reviewer did not feel a strong sense of warmth or homeliness from their interactions with the husband and staff.

Although some activities are conducted within the facility, such as games or recreational programs, outings are infrequent due to limited resident availability.

In summary, while Baltimore Street Care Home has received positive reviews regarding its affordability, cleanliness, comfort, and provision of organic meals, one reviewer expressed disappointment in the lack of a homely atmosphere. Overall opinions on Baltimore House were mixed but leaned toward satisfaction with the care provided to loved ones placed there.
