Home Care vs. Assisted Living: The Honest Comparison

We're a home care agency — so let's be upfront about the bias, then be honest anyway. Assisted living genuinely wins for some families: heavy social needs, unsafe housing, certain care profiles. Home care wins on familiarity, one-on-one attention, dignity of place, and — with LTC reimbursement — often on real cost. Here's the side-by-side Maryland families actually need: costs, care ratios, transition stress, and the questions to ask both sides.

What families say

“I met Keziah in the spring of 2017 after my wife of 50 years sustained a serious stroke. I knew immediately that she and her team were special… She is intelligent, knowledgeable, kind, a compassionate expert. She believes kindness can be taught. There could not be a more gifted teacher than Keziah.”

Larry Waterbury, M.D.Retired Johns Hopkins Physician & Professor
