Q: Who manages Marymount Villa?
A: Marymount Villa’s owners reside here in the Bay Area and own one other assisted living community, Marymount Greenhills in Millbrae, California. Because they reside locally they take a personal interest in both communities and visit often to ensure they are doing everything possible to meet residents’ needs.
Q: What forms of payment do you accept?
A: We are exclusively a private pay community. Residents pay rent due the first week of each month.
Q: What is Marymount Villa’s religious affiliation?
A: Ours is a non-denominational community with no religious affiliation. Residents of any or no religion are welcome here.
Q: What if my level of care needs change while I am at Marymount Villa?
A: Residents may remain in their own apartments as their needs progress from independent through our four levels of assisted care. Should a resident require 24-hour nursing services, a transfer to a skilled nursing facility can be arranged. Marymount Villa partners closely with several nearby skilled nursing facilities and can assist families with the logistics of needed transfers.
Q: Are pets accepted?
A: Socialized cats and dogs up to 30 lbs. may be allowed in resident rooms by prior arrangement. Please inquire as to details.
Q: Is smoking allowed?
A: No, smoking is not allowed inside Marymount Villa. Residents or guests may only smoke outdoors in designated areas.
Q: Can residents own motor vehicles? What about parking?
A: We have 28 parking spaces for residents who drive and their guests.
Q: Is the community wheelchair accessible?
A: Yes. Electric wheelchairs (or scooters) can be used by our residents within the building. Please inquire as to details.
Q: Are apartments equipped with a communication system if I need help?
A: There are three emergency alert pull cords in each apartment and in the laundry room. Residents also receive an emergency pendant to wear around their neck.
Q: Do you offer respite care?
A: Yes, we can provide short-term and respite stays in rooms which are furnished and ready to move into.
Q: Can you accommodate out-of-town family members?
A: Depending upon room availability, arrangements can be made to accommodate visiting family members for a nightly fee.
Q: Can I move in on a weekend?
A: Yes, we do move residents in on weekends. Residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture and belongings to feel at home. Furniture may be provided, by advance arrangement, for an additional charge, for residents waiting for their furniture to be delivered.
Q: May I store items that will not fit in my apartment?
A: While the apartments do have spacious closets, we do not have additional storage space outside of the apartments. There are commercial self-storage facilities in the surrounding community to which we can refer families.
Q: What if I have questions not answered above?
A: We are here to answer any specific questions you may have and want to do our best to serve each resident’s individual needs. Please call our Marketing Director at 510-895-5007 or e-mail us at md@marymountvilla.com if you have further questions.
