Magnolia Assisted Living Jed Prouty Residential Care Home sits at 57 Main St in Bucksport, ME, and offers support for seniors in a warm and inviting place, with caring staff always around and room for just eight residents in their Residential Care Facility - Level IV, giving it a small, home-like feeling. Folks can choose from private, semi-private, or shared rooms, and there are one-bedroom and studio apartments, plus a separate wing with fourteen specially designed apartments just for memory care, using its own entrance to help with safety and reduce confusion for those living with Alzheimer's or dementia.
This place provides support with bathing, dressing, medication management, help transferring for those who have trouble moving, and has staff ready to help with showering, incontinence, meals, and other daily needs, and it's equipped to support people who need diabetic or Parkinson's care. There's always someone on hand, day or night, to help, and health is monitored routinely. They manage emergencies with systems right in the rooms and maintain 24-hour security throughout the building. An on-site dietitian and a culinary chef prepare nutritious meals three times a day in the dining room or bistro, snacks are always available, and mealtime help is given when needed.
Residents can spend time in wide indoor common areas, a cozy game room, or in the chapel for spiritual activities, while devotional services also happen off-site, which some like for spiritual engagement. There's a greenhouse for gardening, walking trails, a garden, and a courtyard for enjoying fresh air and sunlight, and pets are welcome, so long as they get along with others. Housekeeping takes care of chores like vacuuming and dusting, while transportation is arranged for appointments, outings, and visits to nearby places like pharmacies, hospitals, doctors, parks, local cafes, and community theaters.
The facility runs a specialized intervention program and keeps a focus on a kind environment, working closely with residents and their families to plan care that fits each person's personality and needs, whether for a short or longer stay. A full staff, including caregivers and healthcare professionals, is always present, promoting independence and supporting everyone's well-being, and the whole place is built with safety and accessibility in mind, so wheelchair users feel comfortable. Licensed by local authorities, Magnolia Assisted Living Jed Prouty Residential Care Home accepts private pay and has services common to many assisted living facilities, but its small size, special memory care wing, and community atmosphere make it a good fit for people who want personal attention near the heart of Bucksport, with comforts and help close at hand.
