How families pay for assisted living in Maine

Most families in Maine cover the cost of assisted living, memory care or independent living out of pocket at first, drawing on savings, retirement income and often the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a policy is already in place, can help offset monthly costs, though the amount and timing of coverage depend on the specific policy. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that adds a monthly payment to help with the cost of care, and it is worth asking a veterans' service officer whether a particular community accepts residents using this benefit.

About these figures

Computed on October 23, 2026 from the 7 communities listed in Bangor, 25 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change; the written summary was last revised September 25, 2026.
