Stillwater Health Care

Stillwater Health Care, located at 335 Stillwater Avenue in Bangor, Maine, provides skilled nursing care in a setting that feels genuinely apart from the rush of daily life — yet remains close to everything families need. Managed by First Atlantic Healthcare, a respected Maine-based operator with a track record of personalized, community-rooted long-term care, Stillwater Health Care offers a calm, professional environment where residents receive consistent, attentive nursing support. Stillwater Avenue is a quiet, tree-lined corridor in northern Bangor that carries a residential, almost rural feel despite its proximity to the city's amenities. The street runs near the Bangor-Orono border, putting residents and families within a short drive of the University of Maine's beautiful campus in Orono — a wonderful destination for family walks around the mall area, the UMaine bookstore, and seasonal events. The Orono Bog Boardwalk, a stunning accessible natural attraction, is just minutes away and offers a peaceful escape into Maine's natural landscape. For everyday needs, the Bangor Mall and Stillwater Avenue's retail corridor — with Target, Shaw's, and multiple pharmacies — are just down the road, making it effortless for families to stop for supplies or a meal before or after a visit. Eastern Maine Medical Center is easily accessible, ensuring rapid care coordination when residents require hospital-level services. The Penobscot River, Cascade Park, and the vast Bangor City Forest are all within easy driving distance, providing families with beautiful outdoor spaces to enjoy together in all four of Maine's distinct seasons. In winter, the area's proximity to the Orono and Bangor trail systems allows for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, while summer brings kayaking and picnicking along the river. First Atlantic Healthcare's commitment to individualized care plans, transparent family communication, and a stable, experienced care team makes Stillwater Health Care a trusted option for seniors in the greater Bangor area who need skilled nursing support in a peaceful, professionally managed environment.
