This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. The latest standard survey recorded 18 findings, above the ME average of 11.3.

Key Review Excerpts
“I had a family member there ~1 week. He was transported to the hospital & I was never informed by Coastal Manor. I became aware when the hospital registration called me.”
“Very understaffed, Room was very crowded. My husband didn’t get any sleep and nursing didn’t seem to care at all.”
“They are family....staff and residents....You can tell just walking in, you can feel the atmosphere of family.....Very clean and well taken care of.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.

Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions.
