Oxhorn Road is a small senior care facility in Wiscasset, Maine, that sits on five acres of land and looks just like a large family home, built Cape Cod style with a deck, an attached garage, and concrete construction, and it's got about 2,515 square feet, with four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, though the facility itself is licensed for three beds, so it's not crowded and feels homey, and folks there share apartments with generous closet space, bathing and shower areas set up for safety with grab bars, and heating comes from either forced air or hot water, so it stays warm in winter. The care team can help with everything from diabetes monitoring to manual feeding, continence management, medication assistance, and they've got a nurse on staff along with regular assessments from physicians and RNs. The place offers assisted living and memory care, Alzheimer's care, and nursing services with skilled care for those who need it, plus they have independent living and home care options, even respite and hospice care if someone needs a break or is nearing end of life, so they've got lots of options for folks at different stages.
Residents get three nutritious meals every day and can have snacks between meals, which is important, and they've got housekeeping and linen service so you don't worry about laundry, and there's help moving in if needed, computer access for staying in touch or playing games, and a beauty shop for haircuts or just feeling good. Activities happen every day, including wellness programs, massage therapy, and special occasion parties, plus there are walking trails and outdoor paths if you want to get some fresh air, and those social times mean people don't get lonely. Safety remains a focus-fall prevention is part of the care, and the place was built in 1998, so it's fairly new for the area, with an asphalt roof and average exterior, aluminum and vinyl siding, and a full basement with a fireplace, which is nice during Maine winters.
Oxhorn Road has license number RCC38631, and it's part of a bigger network that runs other homes with names like Hodgdon Green Boarding Home, Coves Edge, and Wiscasset Green all across Lincoln County; each facility is licensed individually, but all share a focus on elderly care. Oxhorn Road itself sits in the Wiscasset Public Schools district at 145 Emery Lane, so it's part of the local community, and while it only has a few beds, that makes care more personal and feels less institutional. There's on-site rehab services too, and care plans are tailored for each person. You'll find the little touch of things like generous closet space, a fireplace to gather around, and both privacy and support, so it does feel like a real home, with staff who help with the basics but also bring in life enrichment programs to keep things interesting.
