Long Term Care

We are a fully licensed nursing home providing services to both Medicaid eligible and private pay residents. We offer a mix of 81 private and semi-private rooms with 24-7 nursing care. Marion’s Way provides a quality interdisciplinary team of licensed nurses, nursing assistants, rehabilitation therapists, dietitians, social workers and activity therapists.

Our goal is to create a relaxing and homelike environment, free of overstimulation that is often experienced in medical settings. We continue to strive to eliminate all unnecessary audible, visual and tactile stimulation in order to provide a more tranquil living atmosphere.

At Durgin Pines, our long-term care offers more than just medical support—it provides a comfortable, engaging, and home-like experience. Residents enjoy chef-prepared meals, cable TV, high-speed internet, and on-site laundry and housekeeping for a stress-free lifestyle. We offer transportation for appointments, an on-site hair salon, and our beloved Grandfriend Visits & Intergenerational Learning Program, fostering joy and connection across generations. Every detail is designed to enhance well-being and quality of life.

Our Activities Department offers a wide range of daily events, groups, and 1:1 activities that can be modified to suit all physical and/or cognitive needs that promote individuality, socialization, and self-expression!
