My mother has lived at the Vi for many years, first in independent living, then in assisted living and now in the skilled nursing facility for memory care. Over the past 15+ years, I and my siblings have always thought that the Vi was a great place. Now, I want to give a special thanks and compliments to the staff in "memory care" where my Mom is. They could not be more competent and caring. Usha at the front desk is great. Neda the administrator is great. And everyone who works hands on with my Mom and the other memory care patients is a patient, caring angel. I wish I could remember the names of all of them. One I can remember is Marc, who along with the others there goes above and beyond to be patient and giving to my Mom and the other seniors in memory care. All of the Filipinas are wonderful, as is the young lady from Fiji with the last name Singh. Like I said, I wish I had remembered or taken down all of their names, maybe next time. In my recurring visits, I did not encounter anyone who worked their being anything other than fantastic.

I believed in the concept of senior living communities, but I dreaded clearing out my house and learning a different lifestyle surrounded by new faces. However, moving into Vi Palo Alto has been a huge success. The weather is fabulous, the food is very good, the Wellness Center is open 24 hours and the residents are smart and fun. We have lectures from current and former Stanford professors, frequent trips into San Francisco theatres, museums, operas etc. I feel so lucky to have found Vi at Palo Alto!

The longer I live here (more than 15 years), the more grateful I am that I had the good sense to choose to move here back in my 70s. In addition to my spacious apartment, the delicious and flexible food menus, the wonderful caring and responsive staff in all departments, it also is a matter of convenience. At this property both the swimming pool and exercise fitness machines & bicycles are all under one roof in the Independent Living Building. Both are available to residents 24/7 which I really appreciate, especially in the cold, rainy winter months. The Stanford Shopping Center is a short walk right across the street with Macys, Nordstroms, Bloomingdales, Neiman Marcus, a Farmers Market with fresh fruit, vegetables, cheeses, etc from local growers in the Valley, and several restaurants and sidewalk cafes. Stanford Medical Center and Clinics are less than 10 min. away, which provided very quick ambulance transportation to the ER for me when it became necessary.
A Life Plan Community, also known as a continuing care retirement community or “CCRC” offers residents a combination of housing, dining, and certain amenities and health care services in return for a monthly fee and an entrance fee. Residents do not purchase their apartments. The entrance fee and monthly fees you pay give you the right to occupy an apartment for life and cover the services you receive while residing at the community, including the care services offered at the community’s care center.

What care does Vi at Palo Alto offer?
There are three basic types of continuing care contracts that a CCRC may offer, commonly known as Type A, Type B, and Type C.
A Type A contract provides the most comprehensive continuing care coverage. A Type A contract generally provides for transfer to any of the community’s care venues for an unlimited time at little or no additional cost beyond the monthly fee paid while residing in independent living (including any ongoing monthly fee increases applicable to such independent living unit) and the costs of ancillary supplies and additional meals.
A Type B contract typically includes a specific number of “free” days in the community’s care venues at the monthly fee rate paid by the resident for his/her independent living apartment. When those “free” days are exhausted, the resident begins to pay a market rate for care services. With this type of contract, the resident assumes some risk in terms of paying for services at an amount in excess of the monthly fee.
A Type C (or fee-for-service) contract does not include care services at the monthly fee rate or discounted rate. Residents receive priority admission to the community care venues, but must pay the market rate for care venue services. With this type of contract, the resident assumes the highest level of risk, as charges will vary depending upon the services needed.
Vi at Palo Alto offers only a Type A continuing care contract.
