Overview of Atrium at Cedars

Instagram

Atrium at Cedars offers independent living, respite care, and short-term rehabilitation in Portland, ME. Independent living provides private apartments with community services rather than daily personal care. Respite care supports short stays for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover, while short-term rehabilitation provides a temporary setting for a resident who needs rehabilitation for a limited period.

Atrium at Cedars opened in 1929. Housing includes one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, with the one-bedroom layout providing a single private living space and the two-bedroom option suiting a couple moving together or a resident who wants a companion. The community may be a good fit for someone who wants a private apartment with access to amenities, transportation, and wellness activities without daily care.

Residents can use a pool, gym, salon, spa, and patio for exercise, personal grooming, relaxation, and outdoor time. Transportation is available for personal appointments and other destinations, giving residents an arranged option for those trips. Wellness programming includes arts, outdoor activities, and intergenerational connections, and pets are allowed.

A Walk Score of 54 makes the area somewhat walkable, meaning some errands can be done on foot. A resident who no longer drives may be able to handle certain errands independently without a car or ride.
