The staff of the financial department are available to assist residents and families Monday to Friday (excluding statutory holidays) from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.
Accommodation rates are set annually by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. It is expected that these payments be made to Marianhill at the first of each month. If an applicant cannot afford the basic accommodation rate, an application can be made to the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care for a rate reduction.
Ontario citizens aged 65 years and over are guaranteed a comfort allowance once accommodation fees are paid. Ask about the various assistance programs including Rate Reduction and Exceptional Circumstance. Our finance department can assist you with these applications.
Additional services not included in the monthly accommodation fee, include:
Trust Accounts
For residents living in the licensed long-term care beds, a trust account may be established with the Marianhill finance department to assist with payment of additional services and to provide access to funds for personal spending. Residents can arrange to have their pension cheque deposited directly to their trust account. Trust account statements are provided each month. It is recommended that the balance not exceed $500.
Safety
Fire Safety
Marianhill is equipped with smoke and heat detectors and sprinklers, with a direct emergency service alarm to the Pembroke Fire Department. A comprehensive fire safety plan is in place to protect residents and staff. Fire alarm pull station boxes are located in the hallways. As per regulations, fire drills are conducted monthly.
All Marianhill exits are monitored and locked by a magnetic door system. An alarm will sound if any door is held open. Should the fire alarm sound, all exits automatically open.
Security System
For resident safety Marianhill is equipped with a security system that locks all exterior doors automatically between the hours of 9:00 pm and 7:00 am. If entering or leaving the building during these times, nursing assistance is required. A call system is located at the front door for this purpose.
Between the hours of 7:00 am and 9:00 pm, visitors must use the posted code (5683 Enter) to enter or leave the building.
Hazard Identification
Marianhill uses a red hazard tag to identify any equipment/item that is broken and not to be used. Wet floor signs and other notices may be posted throughout the home to advise of unsafe situations. Please respect these directions.
