Nightingale House
Assisted Living, Hospice Care, Memory Care & Respite Care · Gaithersburg, MD
Nightingale House accepts Medicaid and Medicare.
Nightingale House sits in the Bondbrook neighborhood of Gaithersburg, Maryland, offering assisted living alongside hospice and respite care. It’s a car-dependent area, so getting to appointments, shopping, or nearby restaurants generally means driving rather than walking.
With just 8 beds in a single-story building, it’s a much smaller setting than most assisted living communities, and that scale changes the day-to-day feel of the place. Staff get to know residents individually rather than managing a large roster. Families can choose between private and semi-private rooms.
Licensed nurses and CNAs staff the home around the clock, and residents have access to rehabilitation services and short-term rehab for recovery after an illness or surgery. Nightingale House also handles longer-term needs through its short and long-term care option, plus hospice services for residents who need end-of-life support. Day-to-day, staff help with activities of daily living and medication management, and they’ll escort residents to appointments rather than leaving transportation up to family members.
Social life is built around a volunteer program and regular wellness activities, giving residents a way to stay engaged without leaving the property. The home rounds out its amenities with grooming and meal preparation support, laundry service, and outdoor space for residents to get some fresh air.
Financially, the community accepts both Medicaid and Medicare, which opens up more than one path for families working out how to cover the cost of care.
