The Enclave of Scarborough offers assisted living, memory care, and respite care in Scarborough, ME.

The Enclave of Scarborough has 92 beds, with studio and one-bedroom housing: a studio provides one private living space, while a one-bedroom layout includes a separate bedroom. Located in the Oak Hill neighborhood, the community allows pets, so a resident may continue living with a pet; its Walk Score of 57 is somewhat walkable, meaning some errands can be done on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to complete some nearby errands without a car. Samantha Ashley Beaton serves as the administrator.

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. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

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.
