Overview of Peaceful Serenity Assisted Living

Peaceful Serenity Assisted Living is a small, 4-bed assisted living community at 4962 Edgemere Avenue, Baltimore, Baltimore City County, Maryland 21215, in the Central Park Heights neighborhood. A 2-story facility with private and semi-private rooms. Not CMS-certified for Medicare or Medicaid.

A detailed resident review documents serious operational failures. The review describes no recreational activities, residents confined indoors without outdoor access, failure to accommodate special diets for medical conditions (diabetics and hypertension patients given junk food and sweets), non-fresh food preparation (external cooking with on-site reheating), inadequate caregiver staffing for emergencies, no social interaction, safety concerns, poor emergency response, and undisclosed financial practices (operator collects rent but fails to provide foods needed for medical conditions). The reviewer did not recommend the facility.

The facility states its mission is to preserve resident dignity with 24-hour awake care, on-call registered nurses, and medication technicians. An “Aging in Place” commitment allows increasing care levels as needs evolve. The community offers stated activities focused on physical fitness, creativity, and cognitive stimulation, plus a coffee station, movie nights, and outdoor space.

Location: 7.3 miles from downtown Baltimore, Central Park Heights neighborhood. Walk Score 77 (very walkable). Most errands on foot. Nearest hospital (Sinai Pediatric Hematology/Oncology) 0.86 miles away. Centrally located near Sinai Hospital, pharmacies, and major highways.

The facility does not offer Alzheimer’s or dementia specialized care. No CNA training program is designated.

Financial assistance programs available to Maryland residents include Community Options Waiver, Senior Care Program, Maryland Nursing Home Medicaid, Senior Assisted Living Subsidy Program, Veterans Aid and Attendance, Senior Prescription Drug Assistance Program, Medicare Savings Programs, and Community Personal Assistance Services. Income limits vary; families should verify with a local Area Agency on Aging.

Regulatory data and inspection history with the Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene are not publicly available for non-CMS-certified facilities.

Families should address the documented gaps with facility leadership: daily activity schedules, meal planning, special diets for medical conditions, staffing ratios, and emergency response procedures.
