"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." MORE

"Dear Mari
de Villa:
As a nursing home owner I am
acutely aware of the challenges and
issues of owning and operating a skilled
care facility.
A resident’s comfort starts with
respect, each and every resident of
Mari De Villa is treated as an individual,
almost as if they were the only person
the staff had to take care of or deal
with. Each resident is treated with
the utmost respect and patience."

Withrow
"For me there
really wasn't an adjustment (moving
to Mari de Villa). I just thought
of this as the next step in our
lives. The nice thing about Mari
de Villa, it's small enough that,
I think there are 54 units where
we are, that everybody knows everybody
and they are extremely, congenial.
As third-generation St. Louis
residents, Ann Withrow and her
husband, Fred, wanted to find
a retirement lifestyle that felt
like home. They found that at
Mari de Villa. PLAY

Dr.
Christopher Vournas
"The thing that
sets Mari de Villa apart is the
atmosphere. They take a personal
interest here in their residents
and there is a family atmosphere
here that I did not find at other
places that I looked. There's
a unique warmth about this place."
Following his wife's stroke in
2004, long-time St. Louis physician,
Dr. Christopher Vournas, chose
Mari de Villa for its skilled-nursing
care and remains a resident himself
today. PLAY

pain one night, pushed the panic
button and there was a nurse in
the room in about five minutes.
We have great piece of mind at

Jim
Stice
"I’d say
the major reason I’m at Mari
de Villa is the mere fact that
it is the perfect size. It is
not large and institutional and
a bit impersonal, you know. Here,
it’s very personal, a perfect
size."
Jim Stice first discovered Mari
de Villa following his father's
stroke.. Now, Jim is a satisfied
resident himself, who now has
a special on-site living arrangement
with his wife. PLAY
