My mother has been at Tribute for about 7 years and the first two years were great and even their…read morehandling of Covid, although expectedly rocky, overall they did a good job, but the past three years everything seemed to change all in a downhill direction. They rarely return calls, particularly the nurses who almost never return calls. They actually moved my mother to another wing and did not ask permission which is required since as I've had Power of Attorney since my mother moved into Tribute and they were provided a letter of incapacitation prior to move in as well, although apparently none of the staff I spoke with were made aware. A staff person helped my mother get a new credit card sent to Tribute and the bill as well TWICE and Twice the credit card and statements could not be found and twice I had to cancel those credit cards and as a result my mother could not keep a credit card at Tribute. I'm the one that who pays my mother's bill using that credit card, but because of this staff member who manipulated my mother, the credit card was tied up for months. This all resulted in hours upon hours of time talking to the credit card company and trying to reach somebody at Tribute. The result was that this staff person was asked not to do this anymore. (?????) Given that many of the people residing at Tribute have memory problems, any changes need to be told to the residents multiple times and if it's a financial matter, than the people paying paying the bills also need to be told. The residents were told in a group setting ONCE, that if they are not on time to meals, their food would be sent to their rooms and they would be charged $10.00. My mother had no idea about this and thought meals were now being served in their rooms. They could have made a call to those who are late and say, hey, if you aren't at breakfast in 5 minutes you'll be charged a fee??? I thought this was ASSITED living. They also used to have a more relaxed system that allowed residents to get their meals anytime without a 90 minute period. Initially they were arranging for cars to take residents to back home from the hospital, but now I get frantic calls saying that my mother needs to go home and the won't allow them to take an Uber, so either you pick them up now or pay $150 for a ride home. So this "Assistance" was removed and suddenly we received an onslaught of forms to get flu, Covid and Pneumonia vaccines. The information required is mostly medical details that the doctor who attends patients at Tribute should know and we would not. At $9,000 a month, one would expect a lot more ASSISTED Living.

I'm sitting here in the lobby waiting for a meeting that should have started 22 minutes ago. There is no leadership, no one in charge. They admitted my mom in one level of care and a month later increased the level of care (and cost) despite there being no change in her condition. It's a difficult decision when placing your parent into assisted living. Don't be fooled by the sales folks you initially meet with. All they want is your money. We literally have tried to voice our concerns in person and I am still waiting on this meeting to start. Maybe a bad review on yelp will result in administration following up with us.

Review of Brightview Great Falls Senior Living…read more When my parents needed a place to age gracefully after staying with us for over two years, we began our search for the perfect senior living facility. Many of the places we visited were quite large and somewhat confusing, with separate areas for assisted and independent living, which made my parents feel isolated and "less than." Then we discovered Brightview Great Falls. It was just the right size--large enough to offer engaging activities and social opportunities, yet small enough to feel intimate and cozy. Six months into their stay, we couldn't be more pleased with our choice. The care they receive is my top priority, and I am confident that any medical issues are promptly addressed. Secondly, the facility's cleanliness is impeccable, which is crucial to me; even the bathrooms, which can quickly become messy, are consistently spotless. My third major concern was the staff, and they have exceeded my expectations. They are communicative, friendly, and genuinely dedicated to their roles. I've even formed genuine friendships with several staff members who are truly caring individuals. Is everything perfect? No, no place is. But any issues that arise are taken seriously and handled swiftly. Knowing what I know now, I would choose Brightview Great Falls all over again. It's a community where I can rest easy knowing my parents are in good hands

CAUTION. Brightview in Great Falls, VA took advantage of my elderly mother. They encouraged her…read morecome in, treated her to lunch, and got her to sign up all in a couple of hours. They took her credit card number which she thought was like a "hold" on a hotel room that could be cancelled. She thought she would have time to think about the decision. She tried to contact the person she spoke with there a couple of days later and was told that person was on vacation until the following week. She waited until the following week and got the run around and was never able to talk to that person again because she was always "busy." A call to the bank a couple of weeks later and we discovered that they had in fact charged her credit card $3,500 deposit the day she had visited Brightview. Several attempts to request that the charge be reversed have been denied by them. These people are very good at selling to the elderly and taking advantage of people who are hard of hearing and under stress. They make the desperate senior citizen feel like they are trying to help them, when, in fact, it is all an act to get their money. I hope this post keeps someone else from having the same experience.
