About Us
From our beginnings as a single assisted living facility in southern Maine, New Communities has continued to grow programs and services for seniors and people with disabilities who want to be as independent as possible and participate as fully as they can in every facet of their lives.
Today, across much of Maine, we offer a broad spectrum of support and a bridge to whatever level of future care might be needed, up to 24/7 living assistance. The most important thing is that the individuals being served – a senior dealing with physical dependencies or loss of cognitive function, someone living with mental health challenges, or a person with an intellectual disability – decide when to cross that bridge, and at what pace. Their goals are our goals, whether it’s reducing dependency, increasing participation in community activities, remaining at home as long as possible, or other outcomes related to cognitive, emotional, and physical well being. We will consider our efforts successful only when our clients tell us we have helped them meet their goals.
Our Mission
We create supportive communities and deliver innovative services for seniors and people with disabilities.
Our Vision
Every person is a valued member of the community of their choice, regardless of age or ability.
Our Approach
We provide safe and supportive residential and community support services for people living in communities all around Maine. We do this through a combination of state-of-the-art technology, innovative approaches and practices, and employees committed to setting the standard for quality, compassionate care.
Evidence based practice and approach:
• We ask the individual what they want and need. All our services are based upon this simple premise and requires the constant attention and focus of caregivers to ensure we are meeting that standard.
• In conjunction with client preferences, we use clinical expertise to create individual plans.
• We gather information through behavioral understanding to make further improvements to client plans. We observe, assess, and seek to improve.
• We implement effective technology to document, assess, and track client information and our methodology.
