Dolley Farm Home

Dolley Farm Home sits in Westbrook, Maine, and serves as a retirement community and residential care home for seniors who need different kinds of help, so you'll find assisted living, independent living, and memory care options, with programs that support people who want help with daily activities but like to keep their independence too, and since Mr. Tom Lawton looks after the place as the administrator, you'll see about 30 staff members nearby, always working to give care with a personal touch, making sure everyone feels heard and respected. The staff can help with bathing, dressing, medication, nutrition, and in some cases, provide crisis and psychiatric assessment for older folks with developmental challenges, and care plans change depending on what each resident needs, whether that's nursing, rehabilitation, continuing care, or support for Alzheimer's and memory issues, especially since the health services offered stretch from non-ambulatory and diabetic care to high acuity care and incontinence services, so even residents with more complicated health needs can live here. Though Dolley Farm Home isn't BBB accredited, it brings together a close group where people know each other, and its compact size helps foster strong friendships among housemates and staff, which feels important in this kind of setting. Meals come included, so residents don't need to cook, and the dining options suit different dietary needs; there are also lots of amenities to help folks get through their routines - common indoor spaces for gathering, organized activities like devotionals and group outings, and enough social, educational, and fun programs for residents to find something to do every week, and even if you want peace or privacy, you've got room for that too. Dolley Farm Home works closely with local medical providers in Westbrook, making it easy for residents to get to doctors, medical centers, and pharmacies, and with home care, hospice, and ancillary health services, many residents choose to stay put as their needs change. Staff and health professionals keep a close watch, help with medication, and do nutritional assessments, trying to keep everyone healthy and safe, and because some services aren't listed in detail, you'll want to ask about anything special, but you can expect staff to help residents enjoy a good quality of life here with daily assistance and care that adjusts to changing needs.
