Overview of Epiphany House

Epiphany House, at 1010 E 33rd Street in the Ednor Gardens-Lakeside neighborhood of Baltimore, is a 53-bed skilled nursing facility owned by Laurie Netzer. Medicare accounts for 88% of new admissions, with Medicaid comprising 5% and private pay 8%; residents typically stay 89 days.

The facility is 2.7 miles from downtown and operates in a very walkable neighborhood (Walk Score: 72). It is 2.14 miles from MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital.

Epiphany House earns a 4-star CMS overall rating, built on exceptional health inspection performance (4-star, 6.5% above Maryland average) and quality measures (4-star, 35.3% above state average).

Staffing is rated 3-star and runs at the state average. The facility provides 3h 51m of nursing care per resident daily, with weekend staffing at 3h 34m per day (3% above state average). Its 75-person workforce includes 3 RNs, 15 LPNs, and 28 CNAs, with no contract labor; staff-to-resident ratio is 1.79:1, matching the state benchmark.

Quality metrics show particular strength in injury prevention and pharmaceutical restraint.

Falls with major injury affect 1.0% of long-stay residents, 57% better than state average. Pressure ulcers in high-risk residents run 4.1%, 38% better than state average. Antipsychotic use stands at 3.9%, substantially below the Maryland average of 12.9%. One concerning finding emerges: 65.4% of long-stay residents report depressive symptoms, more than triple the state average of 20.2%, suggesting possible gaps in behavioral health intervention or resident acuity selection.

The facility reported a single federal fine of $67,000 and no payment denials; no penalties have occurred in the past three years.

Occupancy is high at 91.6%, ranking it 30th of 146 Maryland facilities.

Payroll consumes 31.8% of revenue, the lowest proportion among Maryland SNFs and well below the typical 49-57% for well-managed facilities, indicating significant operational constraints.

Epiphany House is oriented toward short-term post-acute Medicare rehabilitation, though the depression prevalence warrants candid inquiry into mental health staffing and support structures.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Baltimore, MD

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.

Does Maryland Medicaid cover nursing home care?

Yes — Maryland Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.
