Independent Living
I would like to see a higher ratio of staff to patients. However; in todays job market everyone is understaffed so I take that into consideration. Obviously the patients in memory care often are not willing or able to participate in activities due to their mental state but more encouragement to do so would be nice.
We moved to independent living at the Colonnades 10 months ago, after considering 5 other Charlottesville area communities. The residents and staff quickly made us feel part of the community; we have many new friends from varied and interesting backgrounds. Pets are welcome. The sense of community is aided by a wide-ranging program of activities and by open seating in the dining room. Residential options include cottages with patios and garages and apartments with patios or balconies. There is an indoor swimming pool, hot tub, exercise equipment, a large room for fitness classes and a library. Common areas include a sky-lighted atrium, game room, bistro and auditorium for lectures, movies and live music. The 59-acre site is half wooded, with paved and unpaved trails. The health clinic is staffed by University of Virginia physicians, and physical, occupational and speech therapy are available. Assisted living, memory care and skilled nursing are also part of the complex.
The major factors were the size of the community. It is small enough to not be intimidating. The other huge factor for my brother is that it actually has a decent size group of older guys who eat together, watch sports events together and keep each other company.
