The Village Program Ugly Sweater Holiday Party brought warmth and cheer to the Arbor neighborhood at Dirigo Pines this weekend. With all 22 residents joined by more than 25 family members, the room was filled with laughter, conversation, and meaningful connection. 💚

Family plays a vital role in a memory care neighborhood. Familiar faces, shared traditions, and time spent together help reinforce identity, provide emotional comfort, and create moments of joy that truly matter. Events like this remind us that senior care is not just about support and safety, it’s about nurturing relationships and celebrating life together, one shared moment at a time. 🎄🧣

Tonight’s win was a great reminder of why our partnership with UMaine Hockey means so much to us. 🏒💙
Dirigo Pines has been a long-standing sponsor of the Black Bears, and we’re proud to support a program that represents tradition, teamwork, and excellence, values shared across generations of players and fans.
This partnership isn’t just about hockey; it’s about community, legacy, and bringing people together year after year. Congratulations on the win, and here’s to many more seasons cheering side by side.

When a loved one is impacted by cognitive changes, the right support matters. The Village Program provides person-centered memory care built around each individuals unique story, strengths, and needs - preserving dignity every step of the way, not defining them by an illness.

Peace of mind begins when memory care feels like home. The Village Program provides:
🏡 Comfortable, secure surroundings designed for memory support
🎨 Daily activities and experiences based on personal interests and abilities
🛌 Living options to fit your loved one's need and budget
📱 Innovative Technology that keeps you connected, and your loved one engaged
🧠 Specialized Alzheimer's and dementia training for our care team members
✨ and much more!

Choosing memory care is a big decision, but you don’t have to make it alone. Reach out to learn more or to schedule time to visit a Village Neighborhood. https://ow.ly/XHcH50XItfa
