What assisted living actually includes
Assisted living pairs a private apartment with help with the parts of the day that have gotten hard - bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and meals - without the round-the-clock medical staffing of a nursing home.
In Maryland, this level of care is regulated under an Assisted Living Program license under COMAR 10.07.14, rated Level 1, 2, or 3 according to how much hands-on care the program is approved to provide, overseen by the Maryland Office of Health Care Quality (OHCQ). A typical monthly range is $5,500 to $8,500 a month.
