Sunrise at Countryside in Sterling, VA
4.9

Everybody is very helpful and attentive to my needs. The staff come and check making sure I am okay. I haven't participated in activities yet since I'm still getting myself acclimated to my new environment. So far i am very happy and satisfied with my new place.

Forest Hills of DC in Washington, DC
4.6

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

Harpers Station Gainesville
4.9

I would and do highly recommend Harper's Station. Dad was very happy there. His and my only issue was phone service. It was constantly going down for hours to days at a time. Dad was one of the first residents there so it may have been resolved by now.
