About the facility
The Heron House

Ledgeview Assisted Living — When living alone is no longer an option and a nursing home isn't the answer.

Ledgeview Living — where winter brings the warmth of a crackling fire in our fireplaces and summer evening breezes bring the scent of pint trees and seasonal flowers. — Where residents can live independently or have assistance with everyday needs. —As cozy as a private home with all the amenities found at larger facilities but without stairs and elevators.

Spacious, bright, tastefully decorated rooms have wall-to-wall carpeting and space for your favorite pieces of furniture. Rooms have beautiful wooded views and glimpses of natural Maine wildlife.

Our Activites Program provides a well-rounded schedule of events designed to involve all our residents. Residents thrive on weekly 'favorites', unique events, and special occasion celebrations. Other activities include guest lecturers, travelogues, and a variety of musical concerts.

Ledgeview is family owned and operated, located on three beautiful acres and just minutes from Portland, ME.

I would tell others that it is a small community. The owners are very involved in running the community and caring for the residents. The staff are very good about getting the residents to appointments. If there are any health concerns they are quick to work with them. All the communication is with the owners. The owner is always available to email.

the perfect place for mom
It's a smaller community and I feel the residence get more one-on-one attention. It's very homey, and they don't have a schedule with dining. if you want to eat early or late they will make things for you when you want them. It's very caring and nurturing. Communication is excellent and I would recommend this community to others. They have private furnished rooms and that made our move so easy.

Not a place for your loved one
Since the last review in 2012, conditions have changed dramatically at Ledgeview. The majority of the staff are not trained in elder care and have no idea nor skills to tend to the dying. My father-in-law was punished for his eating practices, but the staff had no idea that he was dementia eating. He was given two choices - sit by self or isolation and eat in his room. Never mind that he was depressed and then to isolate him away from the other residents was not acceptable. We have discovered that the owners do not do background checks on the employees, so that does not give one a sense of security. When he needed medication at end of life care, they were locked up in a cabinet and we needed to call the owner to get the key to access the medicine. We know that there was [removed] going on in regards to medication and resident's personal items. Thank goodness for his hospice care. On a particular week-end, he was left sitting in his soiled diaper for at least 6 hours as the on-call staff knew hospice would be coming in the afternoon and they did not see the need to clean him up. Absolutely unacceptable. In his last hours, we had him transported to the Gosnell Home where he died with respect, dignity and loving care. I would never have another family member live in this place. There was no respect and dignity extended to our family during this difficult time.
