WHAT WE DO

Island Commons is a Level IV Residential Care Facility providing Residential Care, Respite Care, and Adult Day Care. Our Chebeague Cares program provides in-home assistance with tasks of daily living. 

Through Island Commons Resource Center (ICRC), we provide an equipment loan closet designed to serve the Island community. Click here to learn more about the Services we offer.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our philosophy is to provide a nurturing, safe, supervised, individually tailored, family-focused home where elder adults can age gracefully and lovingly in place.  

This “Age in Place” model is designed to keep residents within their community for as long as possible, with the least amount of disruption. As long as Island Commons can successfully meet their needs, residents can move in at an assisted-living level of care and stay through hospice level care.
