I placed my husband in Maine Veterans' Homes-Scarborough and our experience has been very good. It's clean. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. They tend to make whatever food the resident wants if they don't want what the main meal is. They have a gathering room and a beautiful outdoor court that you can sit in. There's a big tent that you can sit under if you don't want to be in the sun but if you want to be in the sun, there are tables and chairs around. They do a lot with the ve…

My dad stayed in Maine Veterans' Homes - Scarborough. It was a wonderful place, we were so impressed with it. It was extremely clean, it didn't have that odor that sometimes is in nursing homes. You wouldn't have known it was a nursing home walking into it, and the staff was incredible. I couldn't have asked for better care. The dining area was really good, they offered him choices of what he wanted to eat. They could stop in and get a snack during the day or a cup of coffee whenever they wanted…

My father is in Maine Veteran's Home Scarborough. It's very friendly. He loves the food. The grounds are very, very nice. There's a walking path. He sits outside all the time. He has memory issues, so his area has a gate around it. When we visit him, we get to sit outside every day and he walks around the flowerbeds, and they have some vegetable gardens there. It's very nice. All the staff has been extraordinary as far as keeping us informed of anything, passing information onto him, and telling…

My husband is at the Maine Veterans' Homes - Scarborough. I'm gonna be visiting him at his window. He's very new there. He is in the intake unit, which is under quarantine, that's why it is difficult to talk about specifics under these conditions, because everything is so strange with quarantine protocols. He's in skilled nursing now, and he is going into the memory care unit. It could not be more positive. It has been a wonderful, caring, and clean environment where the staff is very engag…

My mother is now in Maine Veteran's Home Scarborough, and she seems to love it. I've only dealt with the staff on the phone. Because of the COVID, I can't do too much with them but they seem okay. My mother says the food is really good. It's a little expensive. She's met some people that she likes, she's been alone for 3 years so it's nice that she's starting to meet people her age.

I visited this facility

I have visited the Maine Veterans’ Homes once. The staff was very good, and the food was really good as well. The rooms were quite small, but they were neat and clean. They had good security.
