“This is a wonderful place for the older members of your family to live and remain active and engaged! Apparently, there's rarely a dull moment and making friends can't help but happen. Very seldom have I visited an elderly relative and left upset that my application would be rejected because I'm not old enough yet!”

“Cross Creek Station at Charlestown is the Best! The greetings that you receive upon entering to go to Brookside, Herbert's Run or wherever it takes you, gives you such a great feeling! Be ready to Smile! 🤗”

How families pay for independent living in Maryland

Most Maryland families cover assisted living, memory care and independent living with private funds first, often drawing on savings and the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, where a family holds a policy, can also help offset monthly costs, though coverage varies by policy and it's worth reviewing the terms early. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care in these settings.
