Maine Veterans Home - Scarborough

Maine Veterans Home – Scarborough stands as a proud tribute to the men and women who served our country, offering specialized skilled nursing care in a community built entirely around the veteran experience. Located at 290 US Route 1 in Scarborough, Maine, this facility is operated by Maine Veterans' Home, a state-chartered nonprofit with a decades-long mission of providing dignified, compassionate care to Maine's veterans. The Scarborough campus sits in one of southern Maine's most accessible and scenic communities. Residents and families benefit from the home's proximity to Portland, just a short drive north along the coast, where Maine Medical Center — the state's largest hospital and a Level I Trauma Center — provides exceptional specialty and emergency medical services. Mercy Hospital and InterMed primary care practices are also within easy reach, ensuring continuity of care for complex medical needs. Scarborough itself offers a welcoming environment for seniors and their visiting families. Scarborough Marsh, the largest salt marsh in New England, provides peaceful natural scenery just minutes away, while Scarborough Beach State Park and Pine Point Beach offer beautiful coastal walks and gathering spots that capture the essence of Maine living. The nearby Maine Mall in South Portland and Scarborough Marketplace on US Route 1 give families convenient access to dining, shopping, and everyday errands before or after visits. Local restaurants along the Route 1 corridor — from The Clambake to Bayley's Lobster Pound in nearby Pine Point — bring the beloved flavors of coastal Maine right to the doorstep of residents' loved ones.
