Types of care available in Amherst, ME
They were under staffed but part of that was due to covid. They do a good job but only offer certain services. There was very little enrichment, but again due to covid. It is on the expensive side. The staff are wonderful, caring, friendly and always available. The facility itself is lovely- quiet location, beautiful gardens. Their focus seems to be more on memory care. They have less services for people with physical compromises. They really are doing really hard work in a difficult situation.
This review is for memory care: Staff is very committed to excellent care, and always available for consultation. After hours phone coverage is very sporadic and needs improvement. Memory Care unit should have its own phone number or extension.
