About Presque Isle Healthcare Center
Our Story
Presque Isle Healthcare Center opened in 1976, built by the same family that opened Caribou Healthcare Center three years earlier. The family ran it for nearly fifty years, and on October 1, 2025, it joined First Atlantic Healthcare.
The Building and Grounds
Inside are two dining and activity rooms, a therapy gym, a game room, and a salon and barber shop. Outside, a secure courtyard with raised garden beds and a gazebo invites residents into the fresh air.
What Sets Us Apart
Staff here stay an average of 12 years. Residents see the same nurses and aides from one year to the next, and families come to know them too.
Part of First Atlantic Healthcare
Presque Isle Healthcare Center is part of First Atlantic Healthcare, a Maine-based network of senior care communities. Care is still delivered by local staff, now with a statewide network behind them.
Our Standard of Care
Presque Isle Healthcare Center is a licensed nursing facility with 66 beds, certified by Medicare and MaineCare, and a member of the American Health Care Association and the Maine Health Care Association.
