Hilltop Manor

Hilltop Manor at 462 Essex Street in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine, is a 32-bed retirement home that offers independent living and assisted living care, along with memory care and nursing home services, all housed in a well-kept, home-like building connected to Broch Health Inc. and part of DLTC Healthcare & Bella Point, so you'll find both the Hilltop Manor facility and Bella Point names on site and at other locations in Maine. Residents can choose from studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or semi-private rooms with bedrooms, dining areas, living rooms, and lounges designed for comfort and easy socializing-plus there's an on-site computer area, gardens, and walking paths outside, and staff keep common indoor spaces welcoming for gatherings or just a quiet corner. Seniors live as independently as possible but can get help with moving from bed to wheelchair, laundry, medication management, and daily living needs, since staff are trained to help and stay on the property around the clock, ready for emergencies. There's meal service, housekeeping, and help with things like diabetic care or non-ambulatory needs, and staff also support veterans and those paying with social security, private pay, or commercial insurance, with various fees for buy-in, community, respite, and care levels, making it easier for families to plan payments, plus the staff can give advice on these. Activity programs keep residents social and active with daily exercises, resident-run activities, movie nights, community events, and even offsite outings to nearby places like Charlie's restaurant, Spruce Mill Farm Kitchen cafe, Walgreens pharmacy, or Mayo Regional Hospital if anyone needs a doctor, and there's plenty of devotional or spiritual support if that's important to someone. Seniors who live at Hilltop Manor get meals in the dining room, access to a library and salon, scheduled live entertainment, and have local transportation available for errands or events, and those who need memory care or extra medical attention can have specialized care from caregivers and support staff who are trained to monitor insulin or help with incontinence. The staff focus on meeting each person's physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs with customized care plans; everything from laundry to snacks to engagement with neighbors is aimed at keeping seniors comfortable and connected. The grounds are close to community shops and medical clinics, making it easier for residents to stay a part of town life, and the environment stays relaxed and welcoming, with staff committed to high-quality, personalized care.
