From what I saw during my visit at Morningside of Charlottesville, everything appeared clean and neat. I did not see any issues. The rooms were on the small side.

I have no stars for this place if that were an option. My mom stayed here a little while. During that time they changed head nurses four times. The staff most days were angry and grumpy. I once pushed mom's call button and after 30 minutes had to go look for someone. What if mom had fallen? Had a stroke? She would have been dead by the time they got to her. I lodged three formal complaints during my mother's stay. No one ever addressed my concerns. My mother began to show signs of depression and was asking me to take her home. So I began to look around for other places. I found a better situation for my mom. Staffing is important and there are no checks and balances at Morningside of Charlottesville. Not much oversight for staff. They do what they want. I rarely saw the director or head nurse. It was very difficult to get returned calls or emails. The other thing that was troubling was there were never family meetings to address concerns, talk about the health of the resident or just to say all is well.

We walked out of Morningside of Charlottesville saying over our dead bodies it was horrible. The staff was doing their job. The place smelled and looked like the carpets were old and stained everywhere. We were just sort of horrified. The residents were bored, lying around ready to die.

We found Morningside for mom. She seems to be happy there, and she’s adjusted well, so we’re happy about it. She has a one bedroom apartment. It’s nice. They have a lot of activities. Everyone there seems to be professional and friendly.

I was able to visit Morningside of Charlottesville. They have more activities for the residents. They have exercise, group talks, play games, and music. It’s a really nice facility, and it's quiet, but it was just too expensive for me.

Very nice physical structure, great social atmosphere with lots of activities for residents. Unfortunately the food is low quality and high in salt content. Unable to provide low salt or specialized menus to meet dietary needs of seniors.

It was nice. It was smaller in size and a bit more personal. The location was really good. It was close to hospitals and a very short distance from shopping.

My father had been in Morningside of Charlottesvile. They are the best facility in the whole area. The rooms are excellent. My father recuperated well and was sent home.

Morningside Assisted Living is a decently nice place that hasn't got any major issues that I have, or my mother has, encountered. The staff does take good care of my mother and makes her comfortable. There are activities for the residents to do but they are limited as it seems sometimes that Morningside is a little short staffed. Morningside is in a safe location for the residents and the staff that is there seems very knowledgeable and trained in assisted living care.

This place is fairly nice with no major complaints. They take good care of my mother, but don't go above and beyond to make it a good quality of life for her. The activities are limited and caregivers seem understaffed at times. They do take care of her basic needs and we have never had any major problems. It is safe place and in a very pretty location with mountain views right near town.
