The Lincoln Home

In 1927, seven women's clubs of Lincoln County organized and opened a boarding home for the elderly on seven dollars and a dream. These women set the high bar of excellence in caring and in giving. It is with their example that we are entrusted to carry on the mission providing joyful and abundant living for seniors on the coast of Maine.Lincoln Home now offers a variety of support services in the settings of independent living, assisted living, private duty home care, and memory loss care in a small home like environment to seniors. Begun as a simple boarding home for the elderly, The Lincoln Home has evolved over the years to serve the needs and desires of all seniors. It is now a highly respected and beautiful place for seniors to live and receive loving, respectful care. Lincoln Home enjoys an impeccable reputation as the go-to place for seniors to live, to receive current and pertinent information regarding senior issues and for its vibrant and diverse community life program that ensures one's mind, body, and spirit are valued and grown at every age. Lincoln Home makes every effort to be able to provide care for residents to the end of their life when possible. We are honored and very committed to providing hospice care under the umbrella of a certified hospice provider. The Lillian Nash Fund as well as endowment funds provide over $150,000 of care a year to residents who have out lived their resources so that they can remain in the place they live and love.Offering this continuum of care is especially important to those 65 years and older as they plan for their future needs. Lincoln Home has been providing excellence in care in an extraordinary setting for over 80 years and is committed to growing the many services it provides to seniors. It also is proud to be a major employer in the Newcastle and Damariscotta, Maine area.
