Scarborough, ME - Assisted Living, Memory Care

Community size: Large (26-100)

Maine Veterans' Home - Scarborough is a wonderful assisted living community in Scarborough, Maine. It is within enticing Cumberland County which is part of the Pine Tree State.

Welcome to MVH Scarborough, where residents are always cookin’ up some fun. From food tastings to intergenerational activities, our resident-driven community is a hub of activity. Our veterans plan the menus. They pick the activities. They enjoy life amongst fellow veterans. We are very proud that our nursing home was the first in Maine to achieve the National Gold Award for Excellence in Quality from the American Health Care Association.

As an independent nonprofit organization, Maine Veterans’ Homes relies on the generosity of individuals and organizations to help us care for those who served. Daily, we provide care and comfort to approximately 600 Veterans, spouses and Gold Star parents in our six Homes across Maine.

At each of our nursing homes, we have a very active base of volunteers and contributors. Individuals from veterans’ service organizations and the community at large make regular visits, call out bingo, read to residents, and provide those little things that make a big difference.

We believe it is a privilege and our responsibility to provide care and support for those who honorably served our country.

Whether it’s long term care or rehabilitative services, our team of health care professionals works together to develop a customized care plan based on the needs of each Veteran. Our success can be directly attributed to our staff’s unwavering commitment to our Mission and Core Values in caring for Maine’s Veterans.
