My loved one is happy.

Caregivers and administrative staff all pitching to do whatever is necessary to make things work smoothly for all the residents. They are all very helpful with any questions. You might be concerned about the right to answer. Those might be wrong immediately. Overall, this is a very friendly place. Best thing I can tell you is my wife is happy. She's safe.

This truly is a Great Place For Mom.

I think the facility is full. Any vacant rooms are filled in a couple days. There may be a waiting list now. The staff is kind and helpful , they make all residents feel welcome, and usually very upbeat with the resident and responsible person. Special occasion snacks and hors_d'oeuvres are very good!

A True Home Away from Home

My mom passed away the day she was supposed to move into the facility and never actually moved in. However, I truly loved the facility and I'm sorry my mom never got to experience it. I love the fact everything was on one floor and they could go wherever they wanted whenever they wanted without restrictions including outside. It was the fact that the entire community was on one floor so there was no elevators, every resident had full access to the entire facility so they didn't feel like they were locked or excluded and so in certain area they also had beautiful French doors leading to the outside where they can sit out back and it was fenced in so they can stroll and not worry about people wondering. It felt like home

Keeping good personnel is a concern in all facilities. The Neighborhood Coordinator is first-rate. [name removed] returns calls quickly . She is caring and experienced. The facility is super clean due to excellent leadership from [name removed], always a smile on his face. The Activity Director (name removed) offers variety and effort. I would highly recommend this facility.

Great Experience

We were very nervous about looking for somewhere to go for my loved one. Here they made us feel very comfortable. We knew that my loved one was being cared for and watched. We also liked that this was all one floor so we felt our loved one was safer. The activity director tries to engage everyone in all of the activities. I would recommend this community.

My experience at Great Falls

I think the concept at Great Falls is great, but they need to be more specific on who is in charge of what because that is a gray area. If they were more specific in those responsibilities and roles, the facility would run much smoother.

Make Sure You They Don't Expect You to Pay 24/7 Care, Make Sure This is a Condition, After You Have Moved In

For the most part everyone did their job and was friendly. The one person that you didn't get along with there, who was in charge of nursing decided that my loved one needed personal private care nurses, on top of the nurses for my loved one 24 by 7. The nurses on staff were to be taking care of my loved one. I had to let the community know that we would stop having the private nurses on a Sunday, due cost. My loved one died of COVID, and there were a lot of COVID deaths in this community. The health department stepped in to help clean up the community. If I had someone who was blind, I wouldn't take them there. They expect you to pay for private duty nurses, which is outrageous. This is a smaller community, and have enough people on staff to take care of patients. If they can't handle someone who is blind, then they need to say so, before you move in and pay the cost.

Exceptional care for Loved ones with Dementia

We were very blessed to have had our dad at Great Falls Assisted Living. The building and outdoor space is expanisve and perfectly designed with 4 neghborhoods and big walking areas for loved ones with dementia. The nursing care is exceptional and available to families and residents 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Activities run throughout the day to help promote memory, physical activity and happiness of each and every community member. Most importantly is the care, comfort and love provided by each and every staff member. It is clear that those working their have passion and concern for their work that far exceeds job requirements. There are many newer places with the latest electronics; but Great Falls has the most experienced loving staff providing exceptional attention to each and every one of the residents in their community.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Memory Care. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Virginia’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Virginia’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
