Maine is nicknamed “The Pine Tree State” after the white pine forests which cover its landscape. Maine has over 17 million acres of forest and more than 3,470 miles of coastline on the mainland – 5,000 miles total if you include all of its islands. With more coastline than California, it’s no surprise that Maine is famous for seafood. Over 90% of the country’s lobster is harvested in Maine, and much of the state’s culture is influenced by the fishing industry. Locals love to celebrate Maine’s seafaring and fishing heritage, especially at events like the annual Maine Lobster Festival. Maine’s awe-inspiring natural beauty and the rustic charm of cities like Portland and Augusta make Maine an excellent retirement destination.
There are more than 15 nursing homes in Maine. A Place for Mom’s Senior Living Advisors can provide you with a list of nursing homes in Maine to help you find the community that fits your needs and budget.
The median monthly cost of a private room in a nursing home in Maine is about $10,500, according to Genworth. The median monthly cost for a semi-private room in Maine is around $10,000.
This is a top notch professional place, and you can feel that your loved one is comfortable and well taken care of here. The staff are quick to respond to questions or concerns and they are responsive within 24 hours. [name removed] is good with checking in on the family every so often to make sure things are going well. My loved one enjoys the meals. They tend to change the menu so it is not the same thing served everyday. The monthly fee covers linen changes, laundry service, room, all three meals and light housekeeping as well. The community is able to assist my loved one with medication management, and more is offered, if needed. There are a lot of activities including bus tours the residents can participate in.
Read moreThe staff is very friendly and helpful. They go above and beyond for the residents and they have lots of activities available for the residents. They gear the activities towards each resident and they even have field trips. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.
Read moreThe physical plant is inviting. No two rooms are alike and they are well kept and up to date. All of the workers (aides, nurses and other staff) are very professional and seem to care deeply for the residents. They are ready to handle any situation as it arises. The whole place is "home-y", very clean and quiet. There is an enormous backyard that residents can use in good weather to just enjoy the sun or garden. The food is served in a nice dining room with coffee available ad lib. Many levels of care are available. I feel that my mother is very safe there and well taken care of.
