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
  • An activities calendar designed around the interests of the residents who live at each facility

Residents are responsible for their own breakfast and snacks.

Additional Supports

  • Our staff can assist with setting up or scheduling outside transportation to and from appointments
  • Staff provide support during transitions and life changes to promote comfort and stability

Individualized Care Planning

Service needs are determined through:

  • A comprehensive medical assessment prior to move-in
  • Reassessments every six months to ensure ongoing needs are met

Cost & Eligibility

  • Rent, which includes all utilities, is determined by Realty Resources Management
  • Project-Based Vouchers may be available at some locations. Realty Resources Management can assist you in determining whether you qualify.
  • Service costs are based on income and assets
  • Private pay options are available for individuals who do not meet income eligibility requirements

Leadership & Oversight

Each facility is led by a Residential Services Director who ensures:

  • Compliance with all contracts and state regulations
