Lombard Street Waiver Home sits at 112 Lombard St in Presque Isle, Maine, and is a small Level III Residential Care Facility with a license number RCC1775, serving up to five older adults who need help with daily life but don't need a full nursing home. The home is fully furnished, offering semi-private or private rooms, and there's a community feeling since it only holds a handful of residents at a time, which helps staff offer more personal care and attention, and gives folks the chance to get to know each other. The facility gives round-the-clock supervision and health care, with trained staff to help residents bathe, dress, transfer, manage medications, and coordinate with healthcare providers, plus there are services for those with diabetes or high blood pressure, including special diet plans if needed and trained help with insulin or two-person transfers when that's necessary.
There's plenty to do, with a schedule of daily activities, movie nights, exercise, animal therapy, music therapy, outdoor trips, and social or recreational events in the evenings, and there are places for activities like a fitness room, a book room, walking paths, garden, outdoor sitting spaces, and even a hot tub and steam room for relaxation; residents also get the convenience of a mobile stylist or hairdresser who comes in to help with grooming. Home-cooked meals are served three times a day in the dining room, with special options for allergies or diabetes, and there's always help for those who need extra support at mealtimes. The staff assists with bathing, dressing, transfers, and bathroom use, as well as getting in and out of the bath safely. For those unable to get around easily, living spaces and bathrooms are wheelchair accessible, and emergency alerts are in place for safety. Residents can use cable or satellite TV, telephones, and Wi-Fi/high-speed internet in their rooms, and housekeeping, laundry, and dry cleaning services keep things tidy and comfortable.
The home has transportation services for medical appointments, shopping, or visiting spiritual places, so residents can get out when they need to, and there's parking available if they have visitors or need to come and go for any reason. When new people move in, the staff helps coordinate the process to make the transition smoother. Lombard Street Waiver Home doesn't accept Medicare as payment unless certified by CMS, and the facility is licensed and regulated by state authorities; it stands as a supportive, homelike setting for seniors who want independence but need help day-to-day, offering peace of mind to residents and their families.
