My mom already moved to Fredericksburg Assisted Living. The people are wonderful; the staff really cares about my mom and getting her acclimated on the schedule. When you look at the facility, it's quite old. It needs some repairs. The people that are caring for my mom are fantastic. She has good meals. The people there care. The food comes from a different building, so sometimes it arrives at a different time than when it's supposed to. They have a basic dining room. There is a living space with a piano, a fireplace, and a TV in the common area. It's a really unique setup. It is like a rectangle building, and the rooms are independent where they have a door that goes into the center of the building. There is a door that goes to the outside of the building. Every room has a patio. Then the community has a dining hall and a living room. It's about 10 minutes from Mary Washington Hospital.

My mother is in Fredericksburg Assisted Living. It's close to us, and it's all inclusive. They only have 12 beds, so it's a small community. The staff is fine. They're good. I would say, they need to upgrade the facilities and be a little more clean, like power washing the porch.

My mother-in-law will be moving into Fredericksburg Assisted Living. They're not allowing visitors at the moment because of keeping Covid out of the building, but we visited outside of the building. It's all 1-story. There's no step to get in or out of the building. Each room has its own patio. The staff is very kind, and very helpful. We saw some pictures of the room. It's nice, nice sized, has its own private kitchenette, private bath, has a fridge, and you can have a microwave, but it doesn't have a stove. They have the dining area, a place where they could cook with a stove, but everybody uses this area.

Everybody at Fredericksburg Assisted Living was more than willing to help since I had to move my mother-in-law on a transfer board when we were there which is a bit of a learning, and they were right there the day I took her to tour. Theyve all been very cordial when we went in. The patients seemed happy and liked it there. I've had friends who've had their parents there and they have nothing but good things to say about it. It's an older facility but it was certainly clean. The place was good and the layout was very good for older people because there were no long halls. Everything opened onto a giant dining/living room area which I thought was good so they don't have to push themselves down the hall to get there. They were more than accommodating. They have church, Bible study, groups that come in to sing, Bingo, and pets that visit.

My dad was sent there after his knee surgery for a week. In that week he asked for his pain meds and they were never brought to him. The next time he requested his meds he had to go and get them himself because again they were not brought to him. When he was able to get up he asked for a towl so he could bathe and they said they didn't have any towls for 2 days so he had to dry with the paper towlels they have hanging above the sink. He asked for ice water and none was ever deleivered. I would not put a dog in that place. They are the worst.

Golden Livingcenter sits facing Route 3, which has very heavy traffic in the Fredericksburg area. It’s a very old building. The rooms were small with two people in almost every room. The furnishings were ancient-looking, and the food was terrible. I would not give that much of a rating at all. The staff was the exception to the rule. I feel like the staff there, especially the physical therapy staff, went over and above, and they were very attentive and caring. Most of the nurses on my husband’s wing were the same. They had a really good Activity Director who worked very hard to keep activities available for the patients. They had their own bus and would take the patients on an outing to Target or Walmart, and there were in-house activities. I think every Friday afternoon there was a sundae bar in the dining room. They had a reasonable number of activities. I don’t have any plans to contact them for possible long-term care of my husband. It’s not a “feel good” place to me.

My mother was taken to this facility on Friday 4/15/16 she was there for 3 days. Since that time the admissions person said her bipap machine would be delivered her new bed would be brought in none of it was done. She had to be fed, her tray was brought in and left on her table. Her door was shut and curtain drawn one of these days, she would be laying in a soiled pull up, her bed soars got extremely infected when they were healing before she went in, they did not turn her since she didn't have the proper bed, One visit her oxygen canulus was on the floor, don't know how long it was there. She left there on monday 4/18/16 at my demand and was admitted into hospital with several infections and very disoriented. I dont reccommend anyone going there. Admissions is like salesman they will tell you anything to get you in there. Not very truthful, very short handed. Medicaids 5 star rating for this facility is a 1. I give them a zero all the way.

Daughter of deceased patient. Though the people were seemingly nice, I was not impressed with the overall care my father got while he was there the week and half he was alive. I think that for providing dementia care, the staff, in particular, should know and understand how to care for someone in that condition AND be able to handle the patient properly. He was constantly medicated because he was "combative" at night. He had sundowners and needed special care. When he was coherent and awake, he tried to tell me about it. I visited EVERYDAY and saw him get worse and worse till finally he expired. He lost his appetite due to the drugs and also the disease and no one could get him to eat. I found that disturbing. I am writing now, even though it has been over two months because it bothers me that my father died too soon for the condition he had. Alzheimers/dementia.

I Have made a formal greivance of this nursing home. The staff is very rude and leaves there residents in bed for days at a time. They are left in wet diapers etc. Currently trying to find a different home for my sister.

Golden Living Center (now Fredericksburg Health and Rehab) is closer to home and it's conveniently located near commercial areas and stores. My father has been there for about six months now. They bathe him and clean him and he gets physical therapy. He would say he doesn't like it there, because sometimes the people aren't friendly. But we go and visit him every day, because if we don't, the care kind of slacks.

I felt as though the care team was caring, but not a lot of effort was done in order to keep the facility clean. Some elderly patients were left alone in hallways which is a very unsightly thing to see when trying to find a real caring nursing home.

I am a volunteer Emergency Medical Technician for a fire and rescue department in the county, and thus I frequently visit this nursing home. My experience with this nursing home has been fairly on par with other nursing homes in the area. However, I feel that the nursing staff at this nursing home does not do a good job of developing a rapport with the residents of the home. They frequently are unable to tell us whether the patient is in a normal mental condition, or whether they are altered. This makes it difficult for us to adequately treat the patient, as we don't know whether their mental status is any different from what it normally is.
