Stella Maris is one of more than 130 Maryland nursing homes to experience COVID-19 cases; significant outbreaks have occurred in facilities statewide.

We will continue to be in direct contact with individual families affected by COVID-19 on an ongoing basis in accordance with guidelines set by the Maryland Department of Health and the Baltimore County Department of Health. Like all healthcare workers fighting this pandemic on the frontlines, the staff at Stella Maris continue to take steps to safeguard the health of all residents and staff by following the recommended CDC guidelines.
