Morningside Elite Management

Morningside House is an excellent assistant living community. The Sales and Marketing Director shared a wonderful experience of how the residents go about their daily lifestyle at the community. There is no need to tour any other facilities. I'm convince this is the new home for my mom...[name removed]

In February 2019, my Daughters and I decided it was time to move my lovely Bride, to a Memory Care Home (MCH). After visiting several MCH’s and talking to people in the area, we decided to move her to Cardinal Village, A Senior Lifestyle Community, Fredericksburg VA., where we felt she would receive the kind of attention and care a Lady with dementia should receive. After eleven (11) months at her new residence they were able to teach her to eat again and is now eating well and was able to gain her weight back. She is also walking much better, and no longer minds taking a shower. There are hourly activities that the residents can participate in. Some of her favorites are: Today’s news of the day, Move it exercise, Stretching to the oldies tunes; Live music, Kick ball, Giving and Receiving, Road trips and lunch outings. She has made good friends and one cannot say enough about the professional and compassionate care she is receiving from the staff. The staff have always been caring and courteous to Me, my Bride, and my Family. [name removed]

Before placing my wife of 54 years in full-time memory care, our family (daughter, son, and I) researched local facilities and visited three of them, three times each. Cardinal Village kept standing out. The difference was their staff is such a positive, cohesive team, lots of comradarie and obvious empathy for their residents. Their directors (managers) are great; they are hands on involved. The care workers deserve praise; day in, day out, I watch them doing their jobs well, with love. I was told by management that they consider success is getting their residents to smile. A kicker in our selecting Cardinal Village was my next door neighbor had placed her husband there. She spoke highly of the place. She said there had been a few hiccups but they had always listened to her concerns and promptly addressed them to her satisfaction. We were sold. My wife has been there almost four weeks. By all accounts she has been thriving from day one. And because she is doing well, I am doing well. In addition to the loving care there, her day is filled with fun activities—mental and physical. It is so much more than we were able to do for her at home. Our family is convinced we made the right choice; we could not be more pleased with Cardinal Village.

Morningside House of Friendship has been a Godsend. From [name removed] in admitting, [name removed] & [name removed] who are jack of all trades and [names removed], the kind, caring nurses. My 79 year old Uncle became a resident 9/2019 and the staff made him feel welcome from day one. He isn't an outgoing sort of person, so they let him become involved in the activities at his own pace. I love the fact that he's driven to and picked up from Dialysis. The entire staff will help you with your needs and if one can't they'll let you know who can. I definitely recommend this place for the excellent care that they provide.

My Mom was very anxious & disappointmented when she first moved in because she wanted to be home instead but was physically unable. The program director & wellness director was SO patient with my Mom as she tried to adapt & very responsive to our questions & concerns.

The cozy atmosphere as you walk in. The residence rooms I viewed were spacious and up to date. [Name removed] was fantastic she took the time to understand what interests my dad haves. A question I was ask was “ what will I gain out of having my dad here “ and my answer was A peace of mind I wouldn’t have to worry anymore.

Everything I was looking for in assisted living, and then some.

The staff is wonderful, very caring and friendly and truly love their jobs. They are supportive of each other and often go the extra mile to work a few extra hours or extra shifts if needed. Always willing to help and answer questions. While the assisted living area has many great activities, there needs to be more activities for men in the memory care wing. The food is excellent with a great variety available.

Nice size rooms; the 1 bedroom includes a small kitchenette (fridges have large enough freezers for ice cream). Friendly staff & nice selection of activities.

Sunrise was a beautiful place and there was a paved walking path. Much of it overlooks a golf course. Mom could transition from Personal care to memory care. The rooms were nice and they have a shared room options. Their costs are very reasonable.

All of the staff at Cardinal Village treat the residents with concern, caring, and respect. They constantly check on the residents and become very familiar with each persons personality traits and specific needs. They never fail to contact me when they feel a special concern for [name removed]. I have recommended Cardinal Village to several persons and will continue to do so.
