Great care for mom

My 99-year-old has been with Avalon for over 2 years and has been very well served there. As a memory care resident, mom receives assistance with every facet of hygiene, dressing, and meal services. Avalon strictly adheres with State of Virginia regulations. They are very disciplined on dispensing medication. Highly recommend it, especially for value.

Affordable and accommodating

When my wife's cognitive issues reached a point where I could no longer deal with them, we put her in adult daycare for a time, but just getting her dressed and out the door each day on time was almost as stressful as just dealing with her at home. Next we looked into in-home care, but the minimum cost was higher than the finest full-time care facilities in our area. After visiting as many as a dozen of these high-end facilities in our search for a suitable environment for her, we found that she didn't want or need

Excellent service

The staff is what truly what makes the place different from the rest. Both [name removed] and the other young lady have truly gone above and beyond, not to provide just care but genuine kindness and respect. They treat the residents like family and are always making sure their needs are met. The experience has truly given me great comfort and reassurance.

Quality of Life Change for the family

The words "Thank you" do not do justice for what the owner and the administrator have done for me and my family but, especially for me. They held my hand every step of the way, responded quickly to my calls and emails with my questions and concerns. They know better then anyone else that this journey is not an easy one to take alone. I have been the primary person for my husband since his stroke in 2019. The team has given me the opportunity to start taking care of myself but most importantly they give exceptional
