Maine Medical Center

Older Adult Care | AOA体育平台 Maine Medical Center

Maine has the highest percentage of people aged 65 and older in the United States. At AOA体育平台 Senior Care Portland, our goal is to improve the health and well-being of older adults in the communities we serve. 

Compassionate care for older adults

Our comprehensive services are provided by specially-trained care team members with experience in the unique health needs of older adults.

Hospital-based Care

Hospitalized older adults often have multiple chronic health conditions and complex needs.

Outpatient Care

We also provide coordinated outpatient services to help older adults optimize their health and improve day-to-day functioning.

Mary Carol's Story

Mary Carol was in a nursing home for two years after a medical emergency left her unable to live at home. Learn more about how we helped her return home.

Community partnerships

We all need supportive relationships and this is especially true as we age. Local community programs and support groups provide important resources that help older adults age with dignity and maintain community connections.

AOA体育平台 Senior Care Portland partners with the Southern Maine Agency on Aging, the Alzheimer鈥檚 Association and Partnership for Healthy Aging to offer educational programs and support groups designed to help older adults and their families cope with issues related to aging.

Our geriatric medicine specialists also provide care onsite in local nursing homes and assisted living facilities. This care coordination and clinical oversight helps older adults transition from one health care setting to another - such as an acute hospitalization to a skilled nursing facility. In addition to nursing home care and assisted living care, our geriatricians also see patients at New England Rehabilitation Hospital of Portland.
