SeniorsPlus

SeniorsPlus is Western Maine’s Agency on Aging. We provide Meals on Wheels and other critical services to more than 17,000 older adults, adults with disabilities, and their caregivers in Androscoggin, Oxford, and Franklin counties. Our mission is to enrich the lives of older people and adults with disabilities. We believe in supporting the independence, dignity, and quality of life of those we serve. We support independent living and healthy aging. SeniorsPlus is regularly recognized on the list of Best Places to Work in ME. The organization has 125 employees, including part-time and remote employees, and more than 500 volunteers. SeniorsPlus is a private non-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation established in 1972 and governed by a Board of Directors. Our professional and dedicated staff offers a network of support, information, services, and resources for seniors and adults with special needs and their families. SeniorsPlus strives to develop collaborative, innovative approaches to bring together person-centered care (providers partnering with elders and their families to identify needs/preferences), the “Thriving in Place” initiative, and an outcome of a healthcare system in which patients are more engaged in their decisions. We also support the Triple Aim approach and the notion of contributing to the overall health of populations while reducing costs. In addition to being a critical source of information, resource-connecting, and education to people in Western Maine, we provide care coordination for home- and community-based services statewide (SeniorsPlus is contracted with the State to provide home care coordination across Maine). Company headquarters are in Lewiston, Maine, with satellite offices in Norway and Farmington.
