Why this list is different from A Place for Mom

A Place for Mom, Caring.com, and SeniorAdvisor earn $3,000–$7,000 per family placement. Facilities that won't pay those fees get omitted from their results — meaning families never see them. Palmelle lists all 114 licensed nursing homes in Baltimore, including those that don't pay commissions, ranked only by what federal inspectors found. Learn more →
