| Dear Fred and Mary Kay,
It is my pleasure to give you some thoughts about
the care my dad received at Mari de Villa.
Dad formed relationships with his care givers. From the physical
therapist to the nurses and aids, he saw the same people throughout
his stay of three years. Mari de Villa does not employ "temporary"
help. The people who cared for him took responsibility for his well
being, even when he was difficult!
The facilities were clean and were kept up to date
from a maintenance perspective. He had what ever he needed to make
his stay comfortable. He had a private room - a nice size private
room- at a rate that was favorable compared with other facilities
in the area. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and maintained.
Taking Dad on a walk was always a favorite activity when weather
permitted. Our family always felt welcome there - no matter what
time we chose to visit. It was nice to take dad out to the clubhouse
for brunch on Sunday or special celebrations. I always felt welcome
if I wanted to come and share a meal with dad in the dining area.
The staff made an effort to please him if he had special food requests.
We trusted dad's medical care to the internist on
staff at Mari de Villa. I was very happy with the care he received
from the staff doctor, who was most competent and had a real understanding
of the issues facing the elderly.
Care at Mari de Villa is very personal and does not
feel institutional. The management team takes real pride in providing
top notch care for all residents, from the condos to those requiring
the highest level of care. My dad's last years at Mari de Villa
were the best they could be. He was always treated with dignity
and respect.
Best regards,
Julie
