Commonwealth Senior Living

They're in transition, but they have great promise as they move to three levels of care. They are just introducing a full service dining room, but there are still some growing pains. Overall I would give them a four so far.

I think they do a very nice job at Commonwealth Assisted Living! The facility itself is well kept and clean, and unlike some other communities I've had experience with there are never any unpleasant odors. The staff here are friendly and professional, for the most part, although sometimes there are a few things we need to remind them to do. My parents are doing well here, and I like that we were able to keep them together in the same room.

The Georgian Manor is a really nice place. The staff seems to be very interested in the residents. I feel like my mother is safe there. They always check on her. They chat with her and they seem interested in what she does. I think strongly enough of it to recommend this facility to anyone who is looking for a place for their mom or dad. The location is good. The food is good as well. My mom always comments about how good it is.

They're very pleasant, they always speak to me when I come in. The meals are always on time, the food looks fine. They have a lot of activities, the director keeps something going every day. I'm very pleased with the whole situation. I'm very happy with the place, it takes a lot of stress off of me concerning his care. I've had no complaints.

We toured this community while looking into care options for a loved one. Whispering Woods seemed like a nice place, overall. The staff we met were friendly, and the facility seemed well kept and clean. It's worth a look if you're searching for care in the area.

Except for the price tag everything is working out. It's pretty clean and the staff is friendly. They are just finishing up with a remodel, and it will be pretty nice when it's done. I haven't had any complaints about the food from my loved one, and I haven't tried it, but I know they sent out a resident survey not too long ago, and the food was the complaint.

Overall I think they do a fantastic job at Georgian Manor. The facility is probably the best in the area, and for the most part we've been thrilled with it. The staff are very friendly, and they've accommodated us and our loved one in a lot of different ways. Even the food is very very good! However, we did have one major hiccup regarding my loved one medications, which ended up being quite serious. After that incident they've really gone above and beyond working with us to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Upon walking in, I noticed there was live music playing. There was also a gorgeous lake in the back. If Nana were to stay here, she would be able to look out and see the lake, but not able to go outside to enjoy it, as the memory care unit's outside area is towards the front, by the parking lot. It is nice, though. The rooms are nice and have a bathroom. There is no kitchenette area. It was mentioned that they do have companion rooms, so Nana could stay in a companion room, however no one else would be in there with her as there is no one waiting for a companion room at this time. The memory care unit is one long hall and there is no stratification of patients. Some are severely suffering, others are not. I do like their all inclusive pricing model. It may be a bit far, as it is next to Thunderbird Lanes in Willow Grove.

Nearly three years ago I began looking for an assisted living facility for my mother Candy Leary. My parents lived in Lancaster County PA and my father had recently passed away. It was evident my mother could not live by herself. So I began looking into assisted living in the Blacksburg / Christiansburg VA area since I wanted her close to me. CAL was recommended to me so we visited the facility and I was thoroughly impressed. The staff could not have been more caring and I knew I had found a place where Mom could live happily and safely. And as they say, the rest is history. An already beautiful facility, the complex received a number of recent upgrades that make it even more appealing. There are plenty of activities for her and she really enjoys living at CAL. For me personally I find great comfort knowing she is well taken care of when I travel. We're so blessed to have CAL in our com munity and could not be more pleased with the remarkable services they provide. Well Done!!

Overall I think they do a good job at Kings Grant House. The people here are always very friendly, and take good care of the residents. However, they do have an issue with forgetting small details when it comes to more often than not.

We're very satisfied with Churchland House. The staff are all friendly, and they've been very accommodating to any requests we have made. It is a nice place, overall.

Overall things have gone well at Whispering Woods! It's a nice looking place, everyone has been very friendly, and they've got a lot to offer the people that live here. They are worth a look if you are searching for senior living in the area!

The facility is beautiful. The activity rooms are very nice. They have a lot of activities available for the residents. But my mother and I didn't realize the food isn't restaurant style and home cooked. Apparently the facility uses Gordon Food Services for their meals. Some meals are ok, but some aren't. A couple of times they have had no milk for breakfast and dinner. I think that's unacceptable. My mom has had some difficulty with the temperature in her small studio apartment. Most of the time it is very warm. There are no individual thermostats in the rooms. Just a warm and cold knob which doesn't seem to work very well. If it continues to be a problem for my mother I've told her to address it to the office. And hopefully they can do something about it.

It is very difficult to adequately express our appreciation for your wonderful care of Elvis during the past 3 months and we will be forever grateful to you. It is extremely painful to see a charismatic, charming, and courteous parent gradually lose ability to think for himself and to carry on daily activities. However, the staff made that process so much easier for us and even more importantly for Elvis, always affording him the greatest dignity and treating him as an individual. Caring for the elderly cannot be an easy job, however, throughout his stay, every member of the staff team made a difference in his day. We know he is happier now and doing all the former things he could do. Thank you again for all the smiles, hugs, and love you showed Elvis.

We toured this when we were looking into senior living options for our loved one. Overall this was a nice place. It was clean and well kept, and the staff all seemed friendly. However, it was not our favorite that we saw, and was more expensive than some of the options we looked at.

Staff was nice and friendly. Location is great, and facility is clean with traditional decor. Room does have a nice size closet. Dining area is pretty basic, and menu always seemed to include not very healthy but cheap options, such as hotdogs and grilled cheese. Activities within the facility are very basic, and would have been nice to see more outside vendors coming in to provide a more varied calendar for residents. I felt that my parent was safe and relatively happy here.

My loved one has been at The Landing at Willow Grove for about a month now and we're pretty satisfied with the services. They are currently under construction so there's some disorganization right now. The staff there is very caring, and the head people are very engaged if there's ever a problem. The food is quite good, and they offer a lot of activities. My loved one is adjusting, but he's happy at The Landing at Willow Grove.

Things have really improved here since the new management took over. They're putting a lot of money into improving things that had been lacking before, and the staff have shown a lot of improvement as well. The price is about in line with what they provide, not what I'd call a "deal", but not overpriced.

We used Elmcroft for a brief respite stay for my loved one, and overall I thought they did a good job in terms of care and what they provided. The facility itself was nice looking and clean, and the staff were friendly and caring. There was some confusion with the billing that left a sour taste in my mouth, and we ended up being charged for 3 days rather than 2, so I think they could do a better job explaining that.

Nice facility. Close to our house. Very secure building.
