Memory Care Communities in Falls Church, VA

"I toured The Jefferson. You have to buy into that, and it costs a little bit of money, but it was very pleasant. I've eaten there before. So, it was good. The apartment was small. I came in on the activities of the day, and they were very good. The staff was good. The people that are in the community, I find them more sophisticated. The food was decent. It was very good."

"Sunrise of McLean Village is a beautiful, newer community that has a gorgeous courtyard garden. It's very clean. The staff seems very attentive to the residents. There is a wonderful dining area with a great menu. They have lots of activities. They have a happy hour in their little lounge area."

"My Mother is a resident at the GB, I could not ask for a better caring place for her. When I leave there after visiting with her, I know she is in a good hand and she is very happy there. Great staff! Wonderful place! "

"My parents are now here, and it's better than having them at home. Their two-bedroom apartment is fine. They have a lot of demands made upon them by the residents, but they do the best they can. They're doing a better job than I could. The food is OK, and they have activities. It's not more or less expensive than any other place."

"We toured the Sunshine Assisted Living in Alexandria. They gave us a tour of the whole assisted living community. I liked the layout of it and the distance from where we lived. The staff there were very kind and polite. The coordinator was very nice and explained everything that my wife and I talked to her about. The dining area was nice and clean. The staff showed me where they dine, the playing area, and the salon where they do their hair, which was nice. You have to go underground and off the street to park. Other than that, I think it appears nice. It's also right on the corner, so you can't miss it."

"My mom was a resident of Benchmark at Alexandria. I liked that it was very new, and everyone was very knowledgeable and helpful. The facility was very clean. It had a sort of hotel-like feel. It's a long but not wide building, so the floor was just this big corridor, and at the end, there was a larger room where you could do stuff. It's not like some other places I might describe as a really big house. It was more like a facility. It was very expensive, but everyone at her level of care was about the same price, or at least there wasn't anyone significantly cheaper in this type of larger facility. The rooms were a decent size, and the layout was easy to understand."

"My husband and I are going to be moving to The Trillium Tysons for independent living. I think it's the best. Everything's around there; it's the 10th floor, which thrills us, and we got a corner unit, so we get sun and light on both sides. It's beautiful and surpassed my expectations. I saw pictures of it first on the internet, so I expected it to be nice, but when we walked in there, we were awed. I'm having the master bedroom and master bath changed to be the color of our bedroom now because it's the most soothing color. They said they would have done the whole apartment if we wanted. They also said if we wanted to have the closet organizers we have in our house, they could do that for us. They're also going to put grab bars in the shower because that's very important to me. As it is right now, they don't have a door in the shower, so we're getting glass doors in the shower, which they're doing for us, too. The lady who worked with us was as patient as could be. She drew things out for us, answered every question we had, and said that if we had any further questions, we should not hesitate to call. She has the sweetest personality so I just love her. When I came in, I said we've been driving around, and the coffee is horrible. She went and got us a latte during the meeting. If that's an indication of what the service will be like, then I'd rate them highly. She is outstanding. The place is conveniently located near everything, with all the stores and doctors around. That's if you want to go outside, because you don't have to. Everything is already there for you. I would say within a square mile, you have banks, hairdressers, and a movie theater. It's like a village unto itself. You have a choice of a 20-meal package or a 30-meal package. We took the 20-meal package because we like to eat out a lot, and there are a lot of restaurants around there, too. The 20-meal package means you get at least one meal a day. The person we are working with said most people go for dinner because it's a big, fancy meal. They have a Michelin chef there, too. She did say that if you went beyond your 20 or 30 meals, you could get a card and you could pay for it."

"My mother was a resident for over two years at Arden Court and they did an excellent job taking care of her. Staff has been first-rate, very clean facility, wonderful programs, excellent food. One could not ask for better treatment of one's family members. "

"Mom is at Sunrise of Fairfax. We chose that place for her because it is close to where the family lives. They also offered a special 20 percent discount on their room, so there was an incentive involved. Mom is in a studio. It's got a beautiful view and it's brand new. They are just having difficulties hooking up the telephone in the room, but the staff seems great. I've gone to lunch and dinner and the food was good. The service though is a bit slow (if you're on a prime schedule). There's been folks singing Christmas carols (twice she participated in that) and there's an activities coordinator that's been letting her know that there's activities going on. So, she's been trying to get my mom involved. For the area, it's a good value."

"We toured Sunrise of McLean. It was a positive experience. They're still undergoing some renovation, but there was not a problem. The people were very welcoming. We liked the environment. We looked at a studio. It's not that large, but it would be adequate. The director of sales, Jessica, took us on a tour, explained everything to us, and did an excellent job. The dining area was somewhat under renovation, but it'd be more than fine. There's a lot of arts and crafts type of stuff, movies, and other things going on. We didn't pay a lot of attention to it though. The nurse is going to come out on Monday and evaluate my wife for assisted living or memory care. If she's memory care, she's on the third floor, and it's a much more restrictive environment. If she's in assisted living, she could be on floors 1, 2, or 4 and it's different."

"The facility has a long history of serving the elderly. The facility suites are very nice, and friendly for the elderly. There are nursing care on staff 24-7, and doctors during the day time. Most staff are friendly toward the residents. Although there were reports of stolen jewelry, I did not witness any first account. The facility has a more traditional and historic feel on the inside at the lobby entrance. The technology is not the latest but does meet the requirements of the facility. The residents seem happy as they have activities to keep them occupied. The outside grounds are nice and clean, and the facility in general is well-maintained. Many residents and non-residents take advantage of the physical therapy available in the basement level. There is a full service dining hall with an Executive Chef who oversees all the prepared meals. The meal costs are very inexpensive for staff and residents. Meals can also be prepared to fit specific diets. A nutritionist is also available on staff to help residents prepare meals specifically for their diets. Overall, I would recommend the facility if it meets an elderly person's requirements. It has all the necessities, and is close to major shopping areas. "
