Mount Vernon Village is an assisted-living community designed for residents who need help with daily activities while wishing to maintain as much independence as possible. Licensed caregivers are on duty around the clock to provide assistance with bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and mobility support. The community also coordinates on-site visits from a speech therapist, making it easier for residents with swallowing issues, speech deficits, or communication challenges to receive specialized therapy without leaving the property.
In addition to direct personal care, the staff monitors health changes, schedules medical appointments, and arranges transportation to off-site physicians when needed. Emergency response systems are installed in residences, and team members are trained in first aid and CPR. Families receive regular updates about their loved ones, and care plans are reviewed routinely to keep services aligned with evolving needs.
Residences at Mount Vernon Village come in several floor plans, and not every unit includes every feature, so prospective residents should confirm specific details during a visit. Available options across the community include pet-friendly units, wheelchair-accessible showers, Wi-Fi access, individual climate control, and private outdoor spaces such as balconies, terraces, or patios. Common areas feature a piano or organ, multiple outdoor seating decks, and on-site parking for residents and guests.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three daily meals plus snacks. Menus rotate to include international cuisine as well as regional favorites, and gluten-free selections are always available. Guest meals can be arranged so visiting family members can dine alongside residents. The culinary team coordinates with the care staff to adapt textures and portion sizes for those following speech therapist recommendations or other dietary guidelines.
The community offers a range of amenities intended to keep residents socially and mentally engaged. There is a library and computer lounge for quiet reading or internet use, raised garden beds for light outdoor activity, and an activity center that hosts happy hours, birthday parties, dances, and live music events. Scheduled social outings provide opportunities to visit local attractions, while an outdoor swimming pool supports low-impact exercise and relaxation.
