I would give The Memory Center Virginia Beach 5 stars!! They really helped my family at our time of need! [name removed] and staff are awesome! I would recommend this facility (community) to anyone looking for memory care. Thank you for all you do!
At a critical time period when it was no longer practical, safe or affordable to keep Mom in her home of many years close to family, friends and church everything changed when A Place for Mom found the answers to all the above. Everyone that knows and loves her have had nothing but rave reviews! Thank you!
It was a great place for my mom while she was relatively healthy. After she got sick and needed advanced medical care, the CNAs on the staff did their best but were not trained to deal with extremely sick patients. I would recommend Harmony at Oakbrooke for independent living and moderately ill patients that are mobile.
