The food (as attested to by visiting family) is excellent and varied. The physical structure is well maintained and inviting with many amenities (exercise rooms, library, concert room, billards, etc.), despite having to perform institutional services.\n The outstanding feature of Dirigo Pines is the STAFF! I found all levels/areas to be friendly, caring, and helpful. They all went above and beyond “the job.” Management was always responsive, timely, and helpful. My father received attentive, compassionate care. The staff treated him as a family member rather than as a resident. The mutual affection they shared was heartwarming. I often felt he would rather spend time with them rather than me!\n I hope when I need a place it can live up to this staff excellence!","reviewerDisplayName":"Gregg ","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"}],"parentOrgReview":{"name":"Grace Management, Inc","slug":"grace-management-inc-269","averageReviewScoreDisplay":8.6,"communityCount":59,"reviewCount":368}},"communityName":"Dirigo Pines","leadgenCompleted":false}
