Portland Center for Assisted Living offers assisted living, hospice care, memory care, and respite care in Portland, ME. Assisted living provides help with daily activities, memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, hospice care supports end-of-life needs, and respite care provides a short stay when a usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The range of care may suit a resident who needs supervised memory support or a family seeking temporary care during a caregiver’s absence.
The community is in the Back Cove neighborhood and has 170 beds. A Walk Score of 87 out of 100 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby destinations independently. Medicaid is accepted, and Karen Lynn Dodd serves as the administrator.
Residents can use the salon and spa, eat three homecooked meals prepared by a skilled chef, and join game nights, social groups, intergenerational meetings, and holiday celebrations. Rehabilitation services and short-term rehabilitation are available for residents who need therapy or a temporary recovery stay.
