Yes. Windward Gardens is a Medicare-certified nursing home on the same campus. Its Medicare record of inspections, staffing and fines is below. That record covers the nursing home only, not Windward Gardens's other levels of care.
State inspectors visited on May 20, 2026 and cited 11 health deficiencies, 3 of them from complaint investigations. The Maine average is 10.8.
Nurses and aides spend 3 hours 58 minutes with each resident per day, including 1 hour 8 minutes from registered nurses. 76% of nursing staff left over the past year.
Medicare's records show no fines against Windward Gardens in the last three years.
The national median is around $6,200 per month, though it ranges from roughly $4,500 to $11,800 depending on location, apartment size, and level of care.
Medicare does not cover the room-and-board cost of assisted living. Medicaid may help in many states through waivers, and VA benefits can offset costs for eligible veterans.
Assisted living is for people who need help with daily tasks but are largely independent. Nursing homes (skilled nursing) provide 24-hour medical and rehabilitative care.
