Oceanview Manor sits in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, offering a small, friendly place for seniors, with just six beds in the community, where staff give round-the-clock care and everyone knows each other. The staff provides help for veterans, seniors with Parkinson's, and folks wanting both assisted living and memory care services, including special programs for those with Alzheimer's and dementia, always with a secure space for memory care residents. Residents get help with transfers, bathing, dressing, and medication, and for those with diabetes or low mobility, the staff provides extra attention and support. Personalized care plans are based on medical needs and family ideas, and the community works closely with healthcare providers for all needs.
The place has studio, one-bedroom, and a few two-bedroom apartments, all with baseboard heating, ADA accessible bathrooms with walk-in showers, emergency pull cords for safety, cable, phone readiness, and all the needed appliances, along with balconies and one pet allowed per household. Some apartments have open living and kitchen areas with vinyl "hardwood" floors, and the market-rate units go to those over 55. There are services like 24-hour on-call maintenance, scheduled transportation, laundry, and housekeeping, plus meals made by a chef, a dining room with scheduled seatings, and meal options for special diets or allergies.
The building is easy to get around and has walking paths, a garden, and a lounge. There's a fitness room, a library, a games area, a community room with a TV, movie nights, computers, a theatre room, and spaces for social gatherings or special event parties. Residents join daily social activities, use the wellness program, and can get help from a concierge. The parking lot gives each apartment one spot, and there are coin-operated laundry and mailboxes in the community building. Safety is important, with emergency alert systems throughout.
Veterans can get specialty care, and those with memory issues or needing skilled nursing get attention in a secure, supportive setup. The team works with each senior and their family, and bilingual caregivers speak English clearly. Oceanview Manor welcomes those who want an easy, comfortable setting, with support tailored to each need, whether that's living on their own with some help or needing extra care for memory or mobility issues.
