Overview of Residences at Creekside (village at Robinwood)

Residences at Creekside is a 90-bed senior living community at 19800 Tranquility Circle in Hagerstown, Maryland, serving Washington County. Situated within the Village at Robinwood campus, the for-profit community offers a full continuum of care, including independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services.

The Maryland Department of Health, Office of Health Care Quality, oversees regulatory compliance for the facility. While the current source data does not list a specific deficiency history, the community maintains a citations-per-inspection rate of zero. Furthermore, federal records indicate that no civil money penalties or payment denials have been imposed by CMS within the past three years. This lack of reported enforcement actions suggests a stable regulatory standing, though families should verify the full inspection history directly with state authorities.

Nursing and professional care staff are available to support residents across the care continuum, with a particular focus on on-site rehabilitation for those requiring post-acute clinical support. Because specific data points such as staffing ratios, licensed nurse hours, and quality measures, like fall rates or pressure ulcer prevalence, are not currently reported, these represent significant information gaps. Clinical services are integrated into the larger village campus to facilitate transitions between residential and skilled nursing environments.

The community features a residential model designed for long-term stability, allowing residents to age in place as their medical needs evolve. Specific details regarding dining programs, all-inclusive utility packages, and daily social activities are not publicly listed in the current data set.

Shared community spaces and campus-wide security are standard for this level of care, but families must inquire about specific apartment square footage and safety features. Scheduled transportation and housekeeping services are common in such multi-level campuses, yet these should be confirmed during an on-site visit.

The availability of multiple care levels on a single campus provides a predictable path for long-term residency. Individuals evaluating Residences at Creekside should confirm the current license status, Medicaid acceptance, and the facility’s most recent comprehensive survey results directly with the Maryland Department of Health before making a placement decision.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nursing Homes in Maryland

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 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.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 148 nursing homes in Maryland. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
