Island Commons Resource Center is a Level IV Residential Care Facility, offering a supportive and nurturing environment for elder adults seeking to age gracefully within their own community. Embracing an “Age in Place” philosophy, Island Commons is committed to providing a safe, supervised, and individually tailored home. Residents at Island Commons can move in when they require an assisted-living level of care and remain through to hospice level care, ensuring that their needs are continuously met as they progress through different stages of aging. The aim is to foster a family-focused atmosphere, where each individual feels respected, cared for, and at home.
A key component of Island Commons Resource Center is the Chebeague Cares program, which delivers in-home assistance with various tasks of daily living. This service is designed to extend support beyond the residential facility, helping members of the community maintain their independence and quality of life within their own homes. Additionally, the facility offers respite care and adult day care, giving caregivers some relief or providing social engagement and supervision for adults during the day.
The resource center further supports the community with its equipment loan closet, ensuring that residents and islanders have access to necessary medical and mobility equipment. This practical amenity ensures that the community’s needs are met efficiently and conveniently. At every stage, Island Commons places residents’ dignity, safety, and well-being at the center of its operations, striving to create a place that feels like family and truly is a place to call home.
