Overview of Kensington Park

Kensington Park is a senior living community in Kensington, Maryland, offering assisted living, independent living, and memory care in one campus. It sits on 8 acres in Montgomery County, giving residents a spread-out, campus-style setting instead of a building on a tight lot. The three-story building sits about half a mile from Kensington’s town center.

Housing options comprise private and semi-private rooms, along with private and companion floor plans, so occupants and families can pick an arrangement that fits their budget and comfort with company. The home welcomes pets, letting residents keep companion animals with them while settling in. Clinical support exists on-site across the assisted living, independent living, and memory care settings. Daily life includes a bistro café where occupants can gather outside of formal mealtimes, and a beauty salon for grooming and personal care. Wellness programming includes brain exercise programs, massage therapy, and fitness training, giving residents a blend of cognitive, physical, and relaxation-focused activities. Transportation services help residents get to appointments and outings without relying on family for every trip. The somewhat walkable surrounding neighborhood has a Walk Score of 49, so some nearby services are reachable on foot, while most trips demand a car.

Since needs can change over time, families touring Kensington Park may want to ask staff how clinical support is designed across assisted living, independent living, and memory care settings.

Overview of The Hamlet at Queenstown

Located in the Alberta Heights area of Severn, Maryland, The Hamlet at Queenstown is a small assisted living home in Anne Arundel County. The community has just 5 beds, creating a much smaller setting than most assisted living communities. With this size, staff know residents personally and build closer daily relationships in a more home-like environment.

The community is about 2.5 miles from downtown Severn, placing it in a quiet residential area rather than a busy commercial district. Ascension Saint Agnes is approximately 9 miles away, so hospital care is within a reasonable distance when needed, as the community maintains its peaceful setting.

The area has a Walk Score of 41 out of 100, which is somewhat walkable. A handful of nearby errands and services may be completed on foot. Still, most shopping, dining, and medical appointments require a car. For visiting family, the location offers a typical suburban setting rather than a highly walkable town center.

With only five beds, The Hamlet at Queenstown is a boutique alternative to larger assisted living communities. The emphasis is likely to be on close personal attention instead of a long list of amenities or organized programs. Families considering a smaller home may want to ask what a typical day looks like for the residents because staffing patterns and daily routines can vary significantly in communities of this size.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Maryland

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Maryland?

Assisted living in Maryland supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Maryland?

Assisted living in Maryland is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Maryland Medicaid cover assisted living?

Maryland Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Maryland) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 814 assisted living facilities in Maryland. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Maryland?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Maryland, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Maryland?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
