What to Consider About Assisted Living in Odenton

Statewide, the Maryland Department of Health’s Office of HealthCare Quality monitors and licenses health facilities and community programs, such as assisted living facilities. The office also surveys communities to ensure they follow regulatory requirements, and it’s responsible for certifying providers for Medicare and Medicaid.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Odenton

  • Maryland is fairly tax-friendly for older adults, with no state income tax on Social Security income, exemptions for military retired pay and exclusions for some pension types. Additionally, medical supplies, medications and food ingredients are exempt from sales tax.  
  • Single seniors in Anne Arundel County pay an average of $252 monthly for transportation, $320 for food and $377 for miscellaneous costs. Monthly health care costs vary depending on an individual’s overall condition; seniors in excellent health pay around $498, those in good health pay about $591 and individuals with poor health pay about $786. Housing costs vary widely, according to whether a senior owns or rents their home; renters usually pay $1,195 each month, seniors with a mortgage pay roughly $2,220 and homeowners with no mortgage pay about $721.
  • Odenton has 204 physicians per 100,000 residents, six fewer than the national average. However, many assisted living facilities coordinate physician visits and offer regular wellness checks. Some also have on-call or on-site nurses. Odenton Medical Pavilion I and II are in the immediate area, while one of the nation’s top medical facilities — The Johns Hopkins Hospital — is a few miles away in Baltimore.  
  • Anne Arundel County Office of Transportation's transit routes are free for all riders and connect diverse destinations countywide. Seniors aged 55 and older and individuals with disabilities can also reserve shared-ride door-to-door services on accessible vehicles through the General Paratransit program. Additionally, the Anne Arundel County Department of Aging and Disabilities offers subsidized taxi vouchers for seniors and people with disabilities.  
  • Located in Odenton, the O’Malley Senior Activity Center runs online and in-person social, wellness and recreational programs for local senior citizens, including fitness, sewing, computing and history classes. The center is also a congregate dining site where attendees can enjoy low-cost nutritious lunches.
