JRose Assisted Living Home #3 - CLOSED
15101 Serbian Lane, Burtonsville, MD 20866
JRose Assisted Living Homes started in 1994 with a single resident named Paula. Paula had been moving quite frequently between various nursing homes and assisted care facilities as she searched for the perfect home. Her social worker informed us of her transient history and told us not to expect her to stay with us for too long. Several months later, Paula was still enjoying life with us and contacted her social worker to thank her for placing her in her new home. Paula's compliments and recommendations for our facility caught the attention of other healthcare professionals and social workers, which led to JRose's growth and receiving several awards from the State Government. Today, JRose has expanded to three facilities in Montgomery County, where we continue our tradition of excellence in service. We pride ourselves on building family-style relationships with all of our clients, their families, and our staff. Focusing on individual needs, our JRose family provides the perfect atmosphere of respect, love, and care so that all of our residents can find the perfect home. Our senior care communities have a stellar reputation for providing superior care and service. Our history and culture have led to a strong referral network of physicians, hospitals, state and local agencies, health professionals, churches, and, most importantly, our residents and families.To learn more about this providers license and review other available state reports, please visit: Maryland Office of Health Care Quality Licensee Directories

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Baltimore County
- The overall cost of living in Baltimore County exceeds the U.S. average by about 5%, with residents paying more for groceries, utilities, transportation and miscellaneous expenses than a typical U.S. community. However, the county’s living costs trend nearly 7% below Maryland’s average, promoting affordable assisted living.
- Seniors in Baltimore County don’t pay state income taxes on their Social Security benefits, and they qualify for exemptions on pension payments and withdrawals from retirement savings accounts. This helps many effectively budget assisted living expenses.
- Baltimore County is a member of the AARP Age-Friendly Network. It implements an action plan for seniors, providing access to health services, accessible housing and paratransit services.
- The American Lung Association reports high ozone pollution in Baltimore County, giving it an F with 13 high ozone days annually. However, particle pollution levels are lower, earning the county a B for short-term levels and a passing annual score. Assisted living residents sensitive to pollution often have access to a variety of indoor activities and amenities.
- Baltimore County ranks above the national average for health factors and outcomes, indicating effective medical support for assisted living residents. For example, about 55% of Medicare beneficiaries in the county receive annual flu vaccines, versus 46% nationwide, helping control the spread of seasonal illnesses.
How to Pay for Assisted Living in Baltimore County:
Assisted living residents in Baltimore County have several avenues to pay for care expenses, including state and federal health insurance programs, veterans’ benefits and their income and assets.
- Medicaid: Maryland’s Medicaid program provides direct coverage for assisted living expenses, including personal care, meal preparation and basic housekeeping services, through the Community Personal Assistance Program. Additionally, it houses the Community Supports Medicaid Waiver, which has less restrictive financial requirements but provides comparable coverage.
- Medicare: Medicare pays for skilled nursing services and durable medical equipment in assisted living. However, this program doesn’t pay for standard assisted living services, meals or housing.
- VA Benefits: Qualified veterans can pay for personal care, meals and transportation services through two VA programs: Aid and Attendance and Geriatrics and Extended Care. According to our proprietary Caring.com database, over 60 assisted living communities in Baltimore County accept veterans’ benefits.
- Private Payments: Assisted living facilities accept private payments on all types of assisted living expenses, including room and board, meals, personal care and recreational activities. These payments come from sources such as Social Security income, long-term care insurance and proceeds from renting out or selling a home.
