Home Care In Baltimore, MD

Home Care Baltimore, MD

They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.

However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine in Baltimore, MD gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.

Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Baltimore, MD is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

“I live in MD. I have very close friends who live in PA. The husband was diagnosed with cancer. It was a diagnosis that came out of left field. It left them reeling with every unknown when they were told it had developed and progressed rapidly. I called a friend, who lives in my home state, to ask if she knew of any companies that could not only provide health care services to my PA friends, but be ready to do so without delays. She referred me to Haley Davis with Always Best Care Senior Services. I called as soon as I hung up. I left a voicemail, and received a call from Haley within 10 minutes. Providing as much detail and information as I could, I was assured they would be able to provide different levels of care as they were needed. She also said that I, or any member of my friends’ family, could call her if we needed anything. Today my PA friend said she emailed Always Best Care Senior Services last night. Later today I heard that Haley responded, and services were put into place. The absolute last thing anyone should have to be concerned about when they are emotionally overwhelmed and physically depleted from a devastating disease is dealing with automated phone systems, reaching the correct departments, filing requests in triplicate, and being told they’ll be put on a waiting list. Absolute Best Care Senior Services is just what the name says. They aren’t just able to provide the services that will be needed, they provide the peace of mind that allows their clients to focus on themselves. That’s what caring and compassion are about. I don’t think I could ever express my gratitude. Thank you.”

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Baltimore, MD?

lm-check

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

lm-check

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Home Care Baltimore, MD
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Charleston or visit Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?

A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.

With the help of elderly care in Baltimore, MD, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.

Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.

In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

 Elderly Care Baltimore, MD

Affordable Care

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your MD's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.
 Senior Care Baltimore, MD

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Baltimore, MD understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

Assisted Living Referral Services

While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.

Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.


Respite Care Baltimore, MD

At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.

Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Baltimore, MD

At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.

Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.

Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:

  • Brightview Catonsville Senior Assisted Living Memory Care
  • HeartLands Assisted Living at Severna Park
  • Symphony Manor
  • Esther's Place At The Park Assisted Living
  • Cottages of Perry Hall
  • Roland Park Place
Home Care Baltimore, MD

For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.

 In-Home Care Baltimore, MD

Taking the First Step with Always Best Care

The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:

A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way

NOTTINGHAM, Md. — Water bubbling up from Belair Road at Dunfield Road flooded the surface, forcing the roads closure and leaving motorists scrambling to get where they were going.

“When I tried to get back home, there was a no go, like all the way up to Belair and Dunfield I could not go,” said Sheena Molineaux, “so I drove up to Belair and around the Silver Spring area.That was an issue so I had to cutting all the way around the back just to get home.”

WATCH: Large water main break blocks busy intersection in Nottingham

The problems stemmed from a water main break, a fractured 24-inch pipe, that would be no simple fix.

As much of the water from the water main break came spilling downhill into the Stillmeadow townhouse complex, many of the people living here say this is the second time they’ve been victimized within the last 48 hours.

Work to repair a break in a 10-inch line prompted the city to cut off the water to the neighborhood on Wednesday.

“So I filled up containers,” longtime resident Vicki Hardin told us, “Well, I didn’t need them so I emptied them out so we have water today.Right now we do.”

It’s enough to test the patience of residents whose lives are impacted by the unexpected service and travel interruptions.

“We’re dealing with it the best we can, but a hardship is a hardship,” said Carlos Shephard, “We can’t turn our water on.We can’t get into our neighborhood the right way.”

Even impacting the crew, which is trying to wrap up work on the first pipe only to find out an even larger one has failed.“I show up here.The two guys I’m working with already saw it,” said Bernard Wolford of Knott Mechanical, “They showed it to me.It was crazy how much water was coming down.You could see all the rocks laying there in the road.The storm drains weren’t even taking the water down, because it was that much.”

No word yet on how long it will take to repair the broken main on Belair Road, but motorists should look for detours in that area.

Maryland — A cool gray calm settles across central Maryland this morning as clouds drift low over the harbor and a damp chill lingers on sidewalks and parked cars. The air feels still now, but a developing stretch of travel-impacting weather approaches as the Thanksgiving rush begins across the Mid-Atlantic.

According to the National Weather Service, Baltimore stays mostly cloudy through the day with temps climbing into the low 50s. Winds remain light, creating steady—but not yet disruptive—conditions for early travel. Residents should use this quiet window to prep routes, fuel up vehicles, and plan ahead for increasing rain that will affect regional roads and transit corridors.

Friday brings the first significant change. Rain becomes possible after noon, then grows more likely by Friday night as moisture pushes northward. Forecasters expect steadier rain during the late-day commute, which could slow traffic on I-95, I-83, I-695, and the BW Parkway. Visibility may dip under heavier pockets, and slick pavement could complicate outbound holiday travel.

Saturday holds a 30% chance of lingering showers, mainly early, before skies brighten later in the afternoon. For now, temperatures stay safely above freezing, ruling out any icy mix locally. But to be fair, national weather models continue to highlight a broader “Winter Tease” developing across the central and eastern U.S. next week. Long-range guidance hints at snow potential, including chances for heavy snow, between Nov. 25 and Dec. 3, especially in the Midwest, Appalachians, and interior Northeast. Anyone connecting through Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, or Boston should watch for shifting flight impacts.

Sunday turns sunny and mild—one of the strongest pre-Thanksgiving travel days for the region.

Friday: Rain develops; highs near 58.Saturday: Early showers; highs near 57.Sunday: Sunny; highs near 55.Monday: Mostly sunny; highs near 60.Tuesday: Rain chance; highs near 57.

Two-days before the Bears vs Ravens kick-off on October 24th, Top Trumps USA in association with Hasbro Games officially launched the much-anticipated Baltimore-Edition MONOPOLY Game to the masses at Power Plant Live. One-year and 19-days earlier on October 5, 2024 the Queens-Edition MONOPOLY (NY Jets) was launched.

Game Week/Game Day Football & MONOPOLY is fast-becoming a part of NFL Culture in America. This past Sunday the Ravens faced their division-rival Cleveland Browns. Cleveland in October 2023 launched their Cleveland-Edition MONOPOLY. The Browns were showcased on the board with their stadium image (center of the board) & square (Pennsylvania Ave.).

The Ravens square on the B'more-Edition is where Park Place $350 resides on the Original MONOPOLY Game that's celebrating its 90th Anniversary (1935-2025). The "Charm'tastic Mile", the Iconic 1.3 mile stretch-corridor located in the heart of Dwtn-Bmore is highly featured on the game board. The majestic "Charm'tastic Mile" Red Street Sign shares the game board with the Chance ? Cards.

At 2-8 the Queens-Edition MONOPOLY Game is more of a winner than the 2025 Jets. Remember it was the '68 NY Jets that defeated the mighty Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III 16-7. The Joe Namath, "I Guarantee It" still resounds in the lore of NFL history.

Charm'tastic STAT: On December 12, 2019 Ravens star QB Lamar Jackson broke the single-season rushing record for a QB that was held by NFL Legend Mike Vick. The Ravens defeated the NY Jets 42-21. Earlier that day (12-12-19) the 2nd Iconic "Charm'tastic Mile" Street Sign was unveiled at the corner of W. Pratt & Green Street, just minutes away from M&T Bank Stadium. The Baltimore Ravens square is close to the "Charm'tastic Mile" image on the B'more-Edition MONOPOLY Game.

NOTTINGHAM, MD — A Latin American chicken restaurant announced the opening date for its first Baltimore County location.

Pollo Campero will debut Thursday outside the White Marsh Mall in Nottingham. The grand-opening ceremony will have festivities and giveaways.

"Pollo Campero is continuing its expansion throughout the US and Maryland with its 11th location [in the state]," a company spokesperson told Patch in a Friday email.

The quick-service eatery will be located in the former Burger King space at 8233 Perry Hall Blvd.

The restaurant spans 3,272 square feet. It can seat 61 customers, and it offers a drive-thru. The business will have 25 to 30 employees and be open daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. This location is corporate-owned and not a franchise.

The first 100 guests at Thursday's opening celebration will receive a golden ticket, entering them for a chance to win free Pollo Campero for a year. The winner will receive two free individual meals per month for 12 months at one preferred location.

Opening day will also feature an appearance from the chain's mascot, Pollito, plus prizes and giveaways throughout the day.

"Founded in Guatemala in 1971, Pollo Campero is a fast-casual restaurant known for its uniquely flavorful chicken and Latin-inspired sides," the company told Patch. "Using family recipes passed down for generations—including a fried chicken recipe considered a national treasure—the brand has grown steadily since opening its first U.S. location in Los Angeles in 2002, serving freshly prepared fried and roasted chicken in both individual and family meals."

The White Marsh Pollo Campero neighbors the 7-Eleven gas station in the mall parking lot. The closest business attached to the mall is Buffalo Wild Wings.

The restaurant has been on foodies' watch lists since June. That's when County Council Member David Marks (R-Upper Falls) announced in the South Perry Hall Boulevard Improvement Association Facebook group that "permits have been applied for."

White Marsh Mall has undergone some changes over the past year.

An entity of Spinoso Real Estate Group acquired the mall from Brookfield Properties for $190 million in October 2024.

That November, the recently sold mall announced that Pollo Campero was on its way.

In the same announcement, the mall said Kanji Sushi would open a sit-down restaurant in the food court in the former Greene Turtle. Kanji Sushi was open by this July.

Across the food court, The Original Pancake House opened in the former Red Robin by April 2025.

Along with chicken, Pollo Campero will offer empanadas and sandwiches. Refreshments will include horchata and mango juices.

Maryland's other Pollo Campero locations are in:

Pollo Campero has been expanding statewide. The locations at the Annapolis and Wheaton malls opened this year.

Maryland – A cold stillness hangs over Baltimore before dawn, with the Inner Harbor reflecting pinpoint lights across smooth water. A brisk west wind moves through quiet city blocks, and the chill hints at a pattern shift arriving just as Thanksgiving travelers start stacking their plans. Those heading toward I-95 or I-83 early should pack layers and prepare for rapidly changing skies later today.

According to the National Weather Service Baltimore/Washington office, sunshine holds for several hours before clouds thicken. Temperatures reach the upper 40s, but the air stays crisp enough to keep the morning feeling wintry. A weak disturbance approaches from the west, boosting the chance for rain by late afternoon. Commuters should budget additional time because low clouds and scattered showers may reduce visibility.

According to forecasters, steadier rain settles in tonight. Patchy fog may form toward the metro’s northern rim and into the Hereford Zone. New rainfall amounts reach between a half and three-quarters of an inch, enough to cause slick spots at intersections and slow evening travel. Winds remain calm, but moisture trapped along the Patapsco and Gunpowder valleys may enhance fog development.

According to early model trends, Wednesday brings a brief lull in the morning before another round of showers approaches by midday. Temperatures reach the lower 50s, offering some comfort for travelers but keeping everything damp. This midweek stretch sets the stage for Thursday’s higher rain potential. Showers likely increase before dawn Thursday, possibly delaying school traffic and early flights at BWI. No wintry mix is expected locally, but colder pockets west of Frederick may see a subtle Winter Tease in the form of marginal surface chill.

The upcoming weekend looks milder with highs in the upper 50s. Conditions favor final leaf cleanup, early holiday decorating, and regional travel before a cooler pattern rebuilds next week.

Five-Day Forecast for Baltimore, MD:

Tue: 49/42 – Mostly sunny early; chance of rain late.Wed: 53/44 – Mostly cloudy; showers possible midday.Thu: 54/48 – Rain likely; slower I-95 travel.Fri: 62/47 – Chance of rain; mild breeze.Sat: 60/40 – Partly sunny; good for outdoor prep.
