Viva Senior Living

The staff are very friendly and welcoming. My loved one said the food is good, he seems to enjoy it and they give him seconds if he asks for it. They also seem to have a lot of activities with a lot of variety. They have shopping trips, and today they are going to a restaurant. They generally try and do something at least once a week, as far as trips go.

Our family had an in person tour and the staff who led us on the tour were great and super friendly

After visiting Commonwealth, I knew this was the place for my MIL. Clean facility, amazing staff and super friendly residents. If you want a down home feeling for your senior, this is the place. Sadly we did not ultimately choose Commonwealth because we had to find a place closer to Manassas.

We really weren't there long enough to give you great feedback. The food during the 3 days my loved one was there was fabulous!!!!! Unfortunately my loved one was needing a good deal of help as a result of their stroke. We were hoping for a little more assistance in the first few weeks and that was not the case in the 3 days. Not that care services weren't adequate under normal circumstances but we were promised more during initial days. The only negative was the procedure for getting help - you had to call the desk and ask. In our case my loved one wasn't communicating well and couldn't dial the phone so they had to wait for someone to just happen in.

Our experience at the Retreat of Easley has been great so far. My Dad has been there for 5 months.

I am thrilled with my decision of choosing Commonwealth Memory Care at Chesapeake. It's the perfect place, absolutely wonderful. They were very welcoming, professional, caring, and kind. They really take care of their residents and they seem to enjoy their jobs taking care of the people there. I couldn't be happier.

We were so happy with Keepsake Village that we cancelled all of our other tours and I am glad we did because everything is working out great. [name removed] the director was born to do this job, she is absolutely wonderful. She really takes a personal approach to everything and knows everyone by name. It is expensive, but she is being well taken care of so it is worth it. I would highly recommend Keepsake Village to other families.

Our family had an in person tour and we loved their memory care unit, but the price was just to far out of our reach

the commons was a very clean, inviting facility. the staff was very friendly. I loved the programs they had for the residents to keep them engaged.

This community was in the running and this was my number two. There was another community that just followed up with me and showed that they cared about my loved one and it swayed me another direction. Very nice community and the pricing seemed to be a-la-cart. Location was also important for where my loved one was. The tour guide spent a lot of time with us and answered all of questions in regards to the community.

This community did not have any private rooms and did not have any openings when my loved one had to have a place. I liked this community but it just did not have openings and we were on a time schedule

It's a good place to place a loved one. I would suggest a single room if at all affordable for you. The rooms are small for 2 people, especially if they use a hospital bed, it takes up most of the space. The single room provides more space. The provide a lot of activities. This is all listed on their monthly calendar. They do a lot art projects that they hang up on the walls. They do have a gardening group weather permitting and bible study as well to name a few.

Our family had an in person tour and we thought The Hearth was absolutely beautiful, we loved the community right away. However the community was jut a little to far away and they do not accept pets.

The Hearth is certainly a friendly community, our loved one has been back and forth from rehab so he hasn't had the chance to really experience everything like the activities, but from what we have seen they look great. The entire organization and the staff are just amazing, we would recommend this community to others.

It's been a pretty good memory care experience. The four different wings they have with different types of care have been beneficial. The facility itself is good, and the staff are about average.

We've been very happy with our choice. I feel they've kept us well informed with any restrictions going on with the pandemic. And that's been a big relief. Making the move was a much easier adjustment than we were expecting, for Dad as well as for our family. All the limited care provided in independent living has been good - cleaning, meals etc. My dad tells me everyone on staff is very friendly and kind. He's happy there. He seems to enjoy the food. He likes going on walks, attending music activities, and watching football games with other residents. He's meeting people his age and making friends. They have exercise classes, and transportation to church and appointments and things. We're very happy with them and how Dad has adjusted. He's very comfortable there, and it has gone as well as we could have ever hoped. I have no worries about him. I fell like we're getting a good value, and it's nice to know that additional assisted living services are there if he ever needs them.

Our loved one was mostly on a liquid diet but even being on a liquid diet he seemed to enjoy it and we were happy. He wasn't able to most of the time participate in the activities but what we were able to see when we visited looked great and the residents were kept busy a lot of the time. We thought the value for cost was great.

Woodland Creek was an extremely nice facility from what we saw on our tour. I would definitely tell others to check this place out

I thought Commonweath at Hagerstown was very nice. The only downside is they didn’t have any single rooms available at the time, and our loved one didn’t want to share a room. But the lady that showed us through was very nice. They were probably our 2nd choice out of the places we looked at.

They were the best at this community. They are excellent people and good folks to trust your loved ones with memory care too take care of.
