Howell’s Care 3

6111 Western Run Dr, Baltimore, Md 21209, Usa
Overview of Howell’s Care 3

Howell’s Care 3 operates as a seven-resident adult foster care home in Baltimore’s western neighborhoods, situated 9.1 miles from downtown. The facility is operated by Howell’s Care LLC and holds the capacity to serve Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries; an important distinction, as many small residential settings do not. A physician maintains on-site presence, and licensed nursing staff work 24 hours daily. Residents must be age 55 or older and capable of moving with assistance.

The community’s service model centers on assisted living fundamentals: staff provide help with personal grooming, hygiene, dressing, toileting, and mobility transfers. Medication administration occurs under nursing oversight. Early-stage dementia care is available, though the facility does not serve residents with mild, moderate, or severe Alzheimer’s.

Three meals daily, prepared in-house with menu options and dietary accommodations, support varied nutritional needs. Housekeeping and linen service eliminate resident burden for household tasks.

A wellness program incorporates regular health assessments. Daily activities include arts, crafts, games, and exercise. Religious services and volunteering opportunities are offered. The physical plant includes a courtyard, private suites with full bathrooms, grab bars, emergency call systems, wheelchair accessibility, secured perimeter, and comprehensive surveillance and fire safety systems.

Visiting hours remain open; exterior doors lock at 9 p.m.

The walk score of 28 reflects a car-dependent neighborhood where most errands require transportation.

Howell’s Care 3 suits older adults aged 55 and up needing assisted living with early-stage dementia support, valuing a small intimate community with Medicare and Medicaid acceptance and physician oversight.

Frequently Asked Questions about Independent Living in Maryland

What is independent living?

Independent living communities are residential settings for active older adults — typically with private apartments or cottages, shared amenities (dining, fitness, activities), and no built-in medical care.

How many independent living communities are listed on this page?

This page features 147 independent living communities in Maryland. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right independent living community 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 independent living communities 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.
