10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Whitewood, VA

My father is no longer there though. But we love The Havens. . Excellent experience. Very clean. Incredible staff. Very genuine. Wonderful quality of care. The staff was always attentive. With the meals, there was something good every day my dad would say! . A lot to do and everyone participates, nice areas for activities. Value for cost - our only issue. We moved in at a good cost and in less than a year the amount went up and that amount didn't include the room fee yet. We had to move my father out of a wonderful place as we could not afford the increase, especially since he hadn't been there a full year yet. This is an incredible place, wonderful people to care for your loved ones. Clean and beautiful. If you can afford the care it is a 5 rate, however be aware of unexpected rate increases.

All 5 stars! This is a beautiful facility. It is spotless and cheerful. Staff are friendly and attentive. Our family has visited 5 to 6 days per week. The care is consistent and the food is excellent. We couldn't be more pleased. Thank you A Place for Mom for the referral (we prayed about this the night before the interview - this was an answer to prayer). This was the first and only facility I toured. I knew immediately this was the place. I did not see any reason to have to visit other facilities.

I am so glad I found and chose Oakmont at Gordon Park for my Mom. First off they went way above the norm to admit my Mom in record time. We were surprised with Mom being discharged from the hospital before we were prepared. I called [Removed] at 2:30, toured the facility a little after 3:00. Mom was admitted and in her room around 7:30. Wow. Mom was put on hospice within a week of admittance, so I cannot speak about the activities and such, however I did hear daily the staff encouraging residents in the nearby rooms to come and participate. Each and every one of the staff showed genuine interest in my Mom with most of them treating her like their own family. Each one took the time to speak to Mom, ask how she was doing, and ask if she needed anything additional. She received more hugs and complements and real empathy than I could have asked for. We were all treated as family. The only negative I can report on is that like most places, there seemed to never be enough hands on board. Given that this is a new facility, i feel they have room to work on this. My opinion is that the CNA's are spread too thin with tasks that maybe could be handled by non skilled personnel, such as carrying water to the rooms (and encouraging the residents to drink), delivering meals to rooms, serving meals, after meal cleanup and laundry. However this may not be permitted by law. I would not hesitate to recommend Oakmont nor would I hesitate to place Dad there if the time comes.
