Overview of Fifty Eight Sargent Avenue

Four beds is a small number by any measure, and at Fifty Eight Sargent Avenue in Lewiston, Maine, all four are currently full. The Level III licensed residential care facility occupies a single-story building on Sargent Avenue, administered by Brian Vye. It’s not a campus; it’s closer to a household.

That scale shapes everything else about the place. Residents choose between private and semi-private rooms, and with only four people under one roof, the staff-to-resident dynamic looks nothing like a larger facility’s. The neighborhood itself is car-dependent, carrying a Walk Score of 22, so getting around still means driving rather than walking to nearby errands.

Regulatory reviews of the facility have tended to focus on care planning and documentation, a standard area of oversight for facilities like this one rather than a sign of trouble in day-to-day care. It’s the kind of theme regulators check across the board, not something specific to how residents are treated here.

For families weighing a smaller, quieter alternative to a large assisted living campus, Fifty Eight Sargent Avenue offers exactly that: four rooms, one administrator, and a scale of care that’s more household than it is a large institution.

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.
