Overview of Volmer Country Living Center

Augusta, Maine is home to Volmer Country Living Center, a combined nursing home and assisted living community. Errands here mean getting in a car. The Walk Score sits at 11, reflecting a car-dependent area with little within easy walking distance.

Care runs around the clock. For residents managing diabetes, staff monitor insulin levels as part of that ongoing support, rather than leaving medical needs to be handled elsewhere. Indoor common areas anchor daily life, giving residents a consistent place to gather, and a regular activity schedule is built to encourage social connection among residents rather than isolation.

What emerges is a community organized around steady, hands-on presence: 24-hour staff, chronic condition support, and shared indoor space, suited to older adults who need consistent daily care more than an extensive amenity list.

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Maine?

Assisted living in Maine supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Maine?

Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Maine Medicaid cover assisted living?

Maine Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Maine) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
