8 Best Independent Living Communities in Cornwall, VA

I became concerned about my 87 year old mother when she began to experience symptoms of weakness which contributed to an inability to do many personal care tasks she needed to perform. She suggested it was time we looked into assisted living facilities. I contacted A Place for Mom and they gave me several contacts, one of which was SDRC. We toured several assisted living places before SDRC, but realized that SDRC's program suited Mom better than the others. Unfortunately, because priority access to assisted living is given to residents, it is unlikely that someone not already living SDRC would be able to get into their assisted living program. After several weeks Mom started feeling better and we explored the possibility of finding an apartment in SDRC's independent living facilities. We were fortunate enough to find an available apartment that suited her needs and she moved in this past week. I have spent a great deal of time there before, during, and after her move and find the staff and residents to be extremely responsive and helpful. Although it will be more expensive for her to live in this community than it was to live in her previous apartment, I feel this will be money well spent. I feel she is in a secure, well run community and will benefit from the numerous activities available. Management was excellent to work with and I recommend SDRC.

The administrator stepped up in our emergency situation: she conducted the initial interview on only two hours notice, coordinated the physician paperwork, and arranged for the move, all within a single afternoon. The charge nurse is a pro. All of the other staff members are kind and caring. The menu is full of delicious options and everything is homemade. The property is in a quiet rural setting with sunset views from the front porch. Services provided as extras at other facilities are included in the base rate. A great value for a competitive price.

The staff at Highland House were sweet and attentive. There was always somebody in the dayroom to interact with. This is an older building, however they do keep it really clean. They offer comfort food and my loved one liked it. The administrative person went out of their way to assist us in moving him in. I would recommend this community.
