Amenities
Amenities of the Mario Pastega House include a chapel, outdoor patio and garden areas, children’s toys, central kitchen and dining area, living/recreation areas and on-site laundry facilities. Outside are three RV parking spaces with full hookups. To offer further hospitality, the house is staffed seven days a week. There is a nominal fee for a night’s stay at the Mario Pastega House or in an RV space. No one is ever turned away for inability to pay.
All that’s required for a patient to use the facility is a home address 25 miles or more away, a photo ID and a referral from a medical provider or hospital staff member.
Guests at the Mario Pastega House will be accepted according to the following minimum requirements:
- A provider referral is needed to book a room or RV space.
- Guests will be patients or representatives of patients currently receiving services on the Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center campus.
- Guests will have a referral from a medical staff member or other appropriate hospital staff (chaplain, social worker, discharge planner, etc.).
- Guests are able to care for their own health and personal care needs, or they have a companion who will stay and provide all necessary assistance.
- A room is available.
- Guests live 25 miles or more from Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center.
- Guests must present a valid photo ID upon registering.
- Guests under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
- We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
In Addition:
- Pastega House staff will not provide guests with medical care or assistance with activities of daily living.
- Accommodations generally will be limited to one guest room for each patient.
- A portable crib will be available for accommodating an infant/toddler.
- Length of stay at the guest house generally will be limited to 30 consecutive days. However, special circumstances (for example, extended radiation therapy) will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
- To fulfill its mission to serve traveling patients and their families fairly and compassionately, the Mario Pastega House has developed policies to ensure consistency in the guest referral and check-in process. Unfortunately, not every request can be fulfilled.
