    Excellent care, friendly staff, still recommend

    I had a positive experience overall - the care was excellent and most staff were friendly and helpful (Tracy Trotter stood out). The place has activities but is older and not as fancy as some homes; weekend front-desk coverage was often unavailable and one main nurse came across as gruff. Still, I would highly recommend it.

    About Marian Home and Village

    Marian Home and Village sits in a quiet spot and has provided care since 1960, offering faith-based senior living with a strong Catholic background and a close tie to Holy Trinity Church, and you can see that they thought about making it comfortable for folks because they did a renovation and addition in 2015, making the place more modern while still keeping things homey. The community is nonprofit and is run by a board of directors with people like James Kesterson, Steve Kersten, and Msgr. Kevin McCoy, and you'll find that they work to make residents feel respected and safe, with that resident-first approach you like to see, focused on the physical, social, psychological, and spiritual needs of each person.

    There's a program called Marian Village, which is an independent living apartment complex, and it's got 28 units offering single, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, and you'll find things like private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, telephones, air conditioning, Wi-Fi/high-speed internet, and furnishings already included so folks can settle in without fuss. The Marian Home program is the nursing facility, which is a Medicare-certified, 97-bed building that offers skilled nursing, long-term care, and memory care, with staff on hand 24 hours a day to help folks who can't care for themselves and with the care team including nurse managers, a nurse educator, dietitian, dietary manager, social worker, activity directors, and a Marian Home Chaplain for spiritual life services. For people dealing with Alzheimer's or other dementia, memory care provides individualized support in a secure area, and rehabilitation services are also available for those who need help recovering or working toward more mobility with the support of professionals.

    Residents can enjoy a wide range of activities every day, including scheduled and resident-run programs, movies, music, fitness classes, arts, faith-led services, a library for reading or study, community spaces, and both indoor and outdoor common areas with gardens, walking paths, and spaces for gatherings or just sitting outside when the weather's good. There's a fitness center, a spa/sauna/wellness room, activity rooms, game rooms, and even options for family support and scheduled transportation to help people stay connected and get around without worry. The dining room has a restaurant-style setup, with meals prepared by a professional chef and options for special diets like allergy-sensitive meals or diabetes-friendly choices, and the staff take care of laundry, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and even move-in coordination or concierge services if a resident needs them.

    Safety is important at Marian Home and Village, with emergency alert systems in every apartment and throughout the grounds, so help's always close by if needed. The community keeps things comfortable and convenient, working to help residents stay as independent as possible while offering many levels of support like Assisted Living, Memory Care, Independent Living, Skilled Nursing, and Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) services, and always trying to create a setting where everyone feels welcome, supported, and part of a caring community. The facility has always been focused on nurturing strength, health, and faith for its residents, aiming to meet each individual's needs with kindness, dignity, and attention that reflects its long-standing mission.
