Cedar Mill Senior Care, operated by Lucia Boariu in Portland, is licensed as a residential care home. The community is equipped to manage residents who require specialized nutritional oversight, including physician-ordered special diets and support for diabetics who control blood sugar with oral medications. Staff are also trained to work with people living with advanced dementia, offering continuity of care as cognitive needs progress.
Care delivery is structured for predictable daily assistance. An asleep night-shift caregiver is on site to handle overnight needs and to monitor safety. During the day, residents who need partial help with bathing, eating, dressing, or toileting receive hands-on support, while those who can manage most tasks independently are encouraged to do so. Mobility assistance covers a range of situations, from simple standby supervision for unsteady walkers to a full one-person transfer for wheelchair users.
Private and semi-private rooms are offered, and some include cable service for personal television viewing, though this feature is not available in every accommodation. Room layouts are arranged to give clear pathways for walkers and wheelchairs, and residents may bring familiar furniture if dimensions allow.
Meals are prepared on site, with kitchen staff coordinating closely with caregivers to honor physician-ordered diet modifications and management plans. Portions, carbohydrate counts, and textures can be adjusted to match clinical instructions, and snacks are scheduled to maintain blood-sugar stability for diabetic residents.
Common spaces throughout the home are wheelchair accessible and equipped with reliable internet access so residents and families can communicate, stream content, or manage online tasks as needed.
