Program & Service
Assisted Living Services
Our Assisted Living Services support income-eligible seniors age 55 and older in maintaining independence while living in a safe, supportive environment. Residents live in their own private one-bedroom apartments within buildings managed by Realty Resources Management. All three facilities are licensed by the State of Maine and provide 24/7 oversight for resident safety and well-being.
Services & Supports
We offer a range of supports tailored to individual needs, including:
- Medication management
- Personal care assistance
- Light housekeeping
- Ongoing health oversight provided by a Registered Nurse Consultant
Our care team includes Certified Residential Medication Aides (CRMAs) and Personal Support Specialists (PSSs), all working together to provide high-quality, compassionate care.
Meals & Activities
Residents enjoy:
- Two nutritious meals daily—a full noon meal and a lighter supper—prepared by our cooks
- Menus that are reviewed annually by a registered dietitian

Residents are responsible for their own breakfast and snacks.
