Journeys Crossing in Elkton, VA
5.0 / 5.0

My mother was at Journeys for quite some time. All the staff from housekeeping to kitchen workers treated her like family. The activity director was amazing with the elderly. She was loved and well cared for. Would not hesitate to recommend the facility to others. She enjoyed the food. It is a great place to be when you can no longer care for yourself.
