Overview of Autumn Lake Healthcare at Summit Park

Autumn Lake Healthcare at Summit Park, situated at 1502 Frederick Road in Catonsville’s Frederick Road neighborhood of Baltimore County, Maryland, is a 134-bed facility independently owned and operated.

The community draws residents across a mixed-payer model: 83.6% of current residents are Medicaid-funded long-term care patients, while new admissions also include Medicare short-term rehabilitation patients and private-pay residents. Occupancy reaches 83.6%, tracking above the Maryland average and signaling stable market demand.

The facility carries a 1-star overall CMS rating, driven primarily by health inspections that run 64.5% below state performance benchmarks. Staffing resources similarly lag: nursing hours total 3 hours 16 minutes per resident daily; 14% below state averages.

A civil money penalty of $49,000 was imposed in November 2023 for regulatory violations. These structural limitations coexist, however, with clinical quality metrics that exceed state performance by 8.2%, a tension that underscores the challenge of achieving good outcomes despite constrained resources.

Falls with major injury occur in just 1.0% of long-stay residents, 58% better than the state average. Urinary tract infections are absent entirely; 100% better than the state benchmark. High-risk clinical events and functional decline scores both run approximately 13% better than state comparators, indicating effective nursing intervention despite lower staffing hours. Pressure ulcer prevalence, however, stands at 9.9%; 51% worse than the state average of 6.5%.

The therapeutic and clinical program depth includes physical, occupational, and speech therapy; respiratory care; wound care; post-operative support; and management protocols for diabetes and chronic pain.

The physical environment features private and semi-private rooms, a salon, a central dining room, and an inner garden sanctuary.

The community’s current payer mix of predominantly Medicaid long-term residents with supplementary short-term rehabilitation and private-pay admissions shapes its orientation toward sustained institutional care in a mixed-acuity model.

The facility serves long-term Medicaid residents who can tolerate staffing constraints in exchange for stable placement and clinical outcomes that exceed broader state performance patterns.
