"My grandmother was a resident at this facility for 6 months until she passed away. I am a CNA and liked this facility more than the facility I trained at. It was clean and well layed out, easy to navigate. The staff were very friendly, helpful, courteous, and compassionate. The nurse was available to talk to me about my concerns and questions about my grandmother's care. I believe she was well taken care of, and the facility did not seem to me to be understaffed, as some are. They do offer rehabilitation therapy which my grandmother seemed happy with while she was participating. I would not hesitate to recommend Medical Care Center in Lynchburg to someone, if they are looking at this type of option for themselves or a loved one. "

"It's been almost a month since my 91-year-old mother passed away from lung cancer (4/22/19). This is my first opportunity to thank the entire health care team at Guggenheimer for providing a high level of care and during my mother's last six weeks, making her stay as comfortable and peaceful as possible during a very difficult period for her and the family. I personally witnessed a team of nurses, therapists and aides who showed devotion and compassion to mother's emotional and physical care as she transitioned from Guggenheimer's health an rehabilitation center to its long term care facility and, finally, to it's Hospice Center during her last days. The administration demonstrated great class allowing us to bring her pet cat for a visit so that my mother could say her heartfelt goodbye. Saying goodbye to a loved one -- especially your mother -- is a painful experience but the people at Guggenheimer helped us cope with our grief. For that, we will always be grateful. Thank you, Guggenheimer."

"My grandparents began living at this facility several years ago. They originally bought into the place for the Independent living function when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease. My grandmother still lives in the IL section; my grandfather moved to Assisted Living 18 months ago. The care was excellent. They provided activities on a daily basis, like movies, games and sometimes special concerts. They had a dining hall, or you could eat in your room. The nursing staff came around to check on him about once an hour, and they were always friendly and helpful. When his condition declined, he was moved to the Skilled Nursing part of the facility. It was still on the same property, so it was easy for my grandmother to get to. One of the CNA's there was able to take my grandfather off premises so he could be present at my engagement party and wedding. It was so nice to have such competent people working with him in his last days. I will never forget what they did for my family. Also, there is a pool, a beauty salon and a gift shop on the property. That makes it handy for my grandmother to get things done without having to go too far. "

"My father stayed at Golden LivingCenters for a period of time. The nurse that I tried to talk with actually told me she didn’t know whether my father’s power of attorney’s paper work. I said, "Don’t you have access to the chart because you are a nurse," and she looked and said it wasn’t there. She acted like it was none of her business. They have some good activities but it’s very expensive and more expensive if you don’t have Medicaid "

"Heritage Hall had a large dining area, but there were no separate units for Alzheimer's patients. It was like a hospital. I toured the facility recently. My mom was there years ago, and it had changed dramatically. They had a fitness center. They take Medicaid patients. "
