"As we visited the facility the first thing I noticed when we entered the building was a friendly atmosphere. The place and furniture was pleasant. The facility was very clean and neat. The staff was doing a lot of interacting with the residents. The residents look as if they were really enjoying their surroundings. The played plenty of events , and create a good loyal social environment for the elderly. The staff wash and cared for the laundry. The facility make sure each and every resident eat at meeting times. They prepare breakfast lunch and dinner. If someone is missing they go check on the to make sure they are not in bed sick. "

"My aunt is a resident of Cardinal Senior Living of Danville. She's doing quite well. She's OK being there. They gave me a tour, and I just liked everything about it. When we arrived, there was a man in the foyer. He was singing. They were just all sitting around in the common area and watching him sing. They do little different activities with them. It's a beautiful place. They all seemed very nice and caring. I wish they did more with my aunt, like letting her walk. Whenever anyone goes down there, they have her in the wheelchair, but when she was here living with me, I would get her up and let her walk every day to strengthen her legs. I took a wheelchair down there, a walker with wheels and just a regular walker, but all they seem to use is the wheelchair. She likes the food and doesn't care that much for bread. They give them breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The price they quoted me when I looked into it went up. The way it was explained to me, the lady said they go up every year, but when I talked to her initially, it was already 2025. So, if they were going to go up on her rate, she should have told me that instead of sidelining me and telling me where it would be after you told me this amount."

"My sister-in-law and I went to visit Smith Mountain Lake. It’s a multi-level care facility with an upscale appearance. They let us have a tour of their cottages, which have two bedrooms, two baths, and a garage. They are in the process of building a gym. They have a doctors that come in every other week and provide pretty much anything you need. "

"My mother-in-law went to Oak Grove Residential Care today, and she has settled in. It feels good. Everybody is friendly. The place is clean and very accommodating. Her room looks small, but very accommodating. She likes the food a lot. I think the dining room is good. They have movies, Wii activities, and church. "

"I think this facility is pretty good. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The food is not so great but of course it could be what grandma has to eat. I do have a problem with them not turning her like they should She has developed a bed sore and they do not turn her properly. The overall cleaning is ok. I think they could be a lot cleaner. It would also help if they removed some of the stuff out of the hallway. There are stretchers, carts, wheel chairs and misc items all over the hallway. Sometimes the patients are rather rude but I guess it is because they have major problems. They rarely taker her outside and she loves the outdoors. It is in a fairly decent location in Danville though. Most places in the area seem to be in sketchy neighborhoods but this one is not so bad. "

"My biggest reason for choosing Blue Ridge Manor was proximity to my niece. My mother likes the food. The atmosphere seems very good, the staff is very nice, and the residents have been very nice too. The rooms seem very nice, very bright and clean. "
