Ohi - 19 Souder Station Lane sits about 9 miles outside Bangor, Maine, and offers a quiet, small community with only three residents in a home-like setting so everybody gets a good amount of personal attention and help. You'll find RN services for check-ups by the week or month, a registered nurse available on-call, and staff who manage medication reminders, setup, and assistance, plus coordination with healthcare providers and a full list of help with things like bathing, dressing, toileting, feeding, and transfers if needed-it really covers the bases for seniors who need more help than what independent living offers, but don't need a nursing home yet. The place is a licensed Level III Residential Care Facility (RCC2128), and has both assisted living and memory care, including services for mental health needs, and people with intellectual disabilities, with support from home health agencies if that's wanted.
Choices for living spaces run from private studio rooms to one-bedrooms and shared quarters, all furnished and including safety features like handrails, emergency call pendants, and 24-hour supervision, so people who need extra help or even constant watch are cared for without giving up privacy. Meals get made on site with diet-friendly menus, including pureed and diabetic options, and staff support individualized help in the dining room. There's a beauty salon, barber shop, and a communal kitchen if residents want to join in with their own cooking or just visit. Housekeeping, linen service, and laundry get done every week, and transportation for appointments or outings is available, so seniors don't need to stress about the little chores or missing medical visits.
You'll find a therapy room offering physical, occupational, and speech therapy, with tailored care plans and attention from pharmacy services and case managers, which helps people recover or stay strong. The staff provides help with daily activities, plus escorting within the facility. The building has outdoor patios, walking paths, landscaped gardens, a courtyard, and even a reading room, with places to sit and relax or chat outside with a friend or a pet, since the place is pet-friendly. Inside, there's cable, Wi-Fi, high-speed internet, flat-screen TVs, and a movie theater room for entertainment, and a computer area so people can check email or watch a show.
Seniors can join in on an activity calendar with arts and crafts, creative games, chapel services, social hours in the café, educational programs, or religious and cultural gatherings. Visiting hours stay flexible, so family can come see loved ones. Because the place only has three beds in its setup, staff really know each resident's habits and needs. Ohi - 19 Souder Station Lane also works with outside agencies for hospice care and home health as needed and is affiliated with mental health clinics, making sure every resident gets the kind of care and support their condition calls for, whether short-term respite or longer stays. Safety features stay in every room, and 24-hour security keeps residents protected, making it a good pick for seniors who want both independence and daily support in a quiet, connected community.
