  • What levels of care are offered at Vergennes Grand?
    We offer independent living, assisted living and assisted living memory care.
  • Is there a Buy-In or Entry Fee at Vergennes Grand?
    No. Residents sign a renewable one-year lease and pay a monthly rent. We also accept residents in Vermont’s Medicaid program for assisted living, Veterans Administration’s Aid & Attendance program, and private Long Term Care Insurance.
  • Can I bring my own furniture?
    Yes, this is your home, and we encourage you to bring your own furnishings and mementos.
  • Can my family have dinner with me?
    Absolutely! Family and friends are always welcome here. Both of our programs have their own dining rooms, with extra room. Just speak with the staff to schedule arrangements.
  • Can I bring my dog/cat?
    Vergennes Grand residents can have pets. As long as you are able to take care of the pet, such as walking a dog outdoors and cleaning up after them, you can have your pet here with you. Ask to see our pet policy for complete details.
  • Does my Physician need to be involved in the application process?
    We do ask that your personal physician complete a health assessment form for our staff. Our Health Services Director will also meet with you to help determine the appropriate level of care for you, and to complete an individual care plan.
  • I don’t drive anymore; how will I get to the store and medical appointments?
    Our location in downtown offers easy access to numerous shops and services within walking distance. Vergennes Grand has its own vehicle as well as partnering with local transportation services. We will have scheduled weekly trips to local stores and restaurants, and you can schedule transportation for personal appointments when the car is available.
  • What if my health changes?
    If you or your spouse/companion experience changes which require more intensive health care, we will make every effort to accommodate your needs. The staff at Vergennes Grand can provide additional care, which can also be supplemented with care by other specialized outside providers. If your care needs require a “higher level” of care than our license allows, we will work with you to find appropriate placement.
  • Can my spouse live with me if they don’t need Assisted Living?
    Yes, we often have couples residing together, where only one person is receiving personal care services. Everyone benefits from meals, housekeeping, socialization and more!
