Overview of Peaceful Serenity Assisted Living

Peaceful Serenity Assisted Living is a small operation, just 5 beds, tucked into Baltimore’s Central Park Heights neighborhood. It’s a 2-story building with a mix of private and semi-private rooms. The Walk Score here is 77, so this is a “very walkable” spot; most errands don’t require a car.

Because it’s small, the care model looks different than a bigger community would. There’s a monthly nursing assessment, a registered nurse on-call around the clock, and medication technicians on staff. Someone’s awake and present 24 hours a day, too. Meals happen three times daily, home-style, as part of that same daily rhythm.

Activities lean toward physical fitness, creativity, and cognitive stimulation, the kind of programming meant to keep residents engaged rather than just occupied. Beyond direct care, there’s a barber on-site, transportation support, housekeeping, and laundry, the everyday logistics families don’t want to have to manage themselves.

Peaceful Serenity Assisted Living is a 5-bed home that is a fundamentally different environment than a 100-bed community; closer staff attention is possible, but so is more variability day to day depending on who’s on shift.

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.
