November 2025

I'm an independent care provider and have a daily client at Solstice in Bangor Maine . The building is nice, common areas are beautiful but the actual apts could use a refresh and some general maintenance. Sadly starting February 1st 2026 the rates for all services are being raised and some of them are not resident " friendly". They are implementing fees for meals to be delivered to your room ( $10), even if you are ill, injured and unable to make it to the dining room. Since the cost of the meals is already included in the rent it seems to me that this is just a money grab. They are implementing a new key card system next week and my client had to pay $50 per new card which are necessary for my-self and her daughter to access the building before 7:30 am and after 7:00 pm. Since seniors are on fixed incomes this will cause a hardship to some.

My grandfather is currently living at Solice in Bangor, a facility that has unfortunately not met our family's expectations. Regrettably, the manager exhibits a dismissive and disrespectful attitude towards the residents, treating their concerns with disdain. Whenever a resident voices a complaint or raises an issue, they are curtly informed that they can "leave at any time," which only adds to the sense of neglect and disregard felt by the residents. This situation has compelled our family to seek out better accommodations for our grandfather, as we believe he deserves a living environment that is supportive, respectful, and prioritizes the well-being of its residents. We are actively exploring new options to ensure he receives the care and dignity he deserves.
