Food in dining room for Sunday brunch was tasty and well served. Grounds impeccable. Guest rooms well kept. Sorry to say not all seniors get such thoughtful care. Thankfully this place sets a high standard and seems to keep up the spirits of the residents. Been around say 20 years. Say 500 residents, many former high ranking military & spouses. Provides houses, duplexes, apartments, assisted living, rehab, nursing home level care, as needed.

A real test of a community is how they manage crises. Tall Oaks Assisted Living has done an…read moreoutstanding job of managing during COVID-19. They were early in taking restrictive measure--even before CMS required them. They have been transparent and communicated with families frequently. It was inevitable, given their location in Northern Virginia, that there would be COVID cases--especially since many staff work at least 2 jobs including at other facilities. Tall Oaks gave direct care staff a raise and asked them to limit their work to this single facility. Tall Oaks seems to have managed the COVID cases well, working closely with the Fairfax County Health Dept. Yes--there have been some deaths (inevitable in this population), but cases have been limited to fewer than 10% of their population. My 99-year-old parents have been safe, with no cases among residents or staff reported on their floor. My parents have lived at Tall Oaks for over 7 years. There have been many staff changes and although I've never been concerned for their safety, management and care has been variable, with current staff returning quality to the level it was when they moved in. Yes--I've had some complaints and frustrations over the years, mostly related to staff not taking responsibility for issues or not following through on commitments, but these kinds of issues have mostly disappeared in recent years as staff has changed. If I had to find a residence for my parents again, I would definitely choose Tall Oaks Assisted Living.

I felt as though my parents were being cared for as if they were the parents of each and every staff person. The administrative staff, the nursing staff, the dining room staff, the maintenance staff, the receptionists and the cleaning staff consistently had a "how can I help" attitude". I always felt like Heatherwood must be a really good place to work because of this positive attitude and the lack of turnover we observed. And the facility was always clean and was always being improved upon. It was a comfort to know my parents were in such good care and in such a lovely place

I have many years of experience with Goodwin House Bailey's Crossroads. My grandparents were…read moreresidents there for many years, first in independent living, and later in skilled nursing. My parents moved there about 12 years ago when my mother's Alzheimer's was making it too challenging for my father to care for her. He moved into independent living (where, at the age of 90, he is still living with my stepmother), and my mother moved into skilled nursing. She received wonderful care there and was treated with respect. When she passed away, the staff on her floor cried and showed us great compassion. One of the things I'm most impressed with are the many activities planned there. Recently they had a Moroccan festival, where they learned about the culture and customs. They had Moroccan food at dinner that night, and they even brought in belly dancers. The units are nicely appointed and maintained. The entire building and grounds are lovely. The staff is friendly, making a point of getting to know the residents. It's comforting to know my father is living in a place where he is safe and will be well cared for.

If you want your family member living in a place where they aren't taken care of and every week…read morethere is a problem then chose this place. It's enjoyable to every week have to question what they are doing there. It was unreal the the excuses, the stupidity and incompetence of people on all levels there from the director of the entire place down to the hairdresser and telephone operator. You could never get anything done by calling just once it required follow up after follow up. It's all very glossy on the outside but it hides rottenness. Ask for information on what services are provided in assisted living they can't provide you with one. *See Angies list for similar experiences as mine. * They like to blame family members for being difficult because you expect the nurses to do their job. For example bathing, clothing not on backwards, proper medication, getting the person down to get their hair done, being treated with respect by physical therapy. Doctors who can't call you back, who have medications being refilled at all different times and amounts. If you want to put your entire fortune down with this place and then continue to pay $5000 a month as well for a place that doesn't have enough staff or proper oversight, management, or procedures come here. Oh, and they also like to use the excuse -- well you know it's the memory - using that to blame or make excuses for their staff who do not do their jobs. One time my family member was waiting for the hair dresser to come pick her up. She say and sat. Thevstaff ciuldnt take tge time to see her sitting on the couch there and tell her they werent coming. The whole management of assisstedbliving which is full of memory issue people is confusing bevause there is no oversiggt, lead nurse, lead manager actively making sure things are done right. And i dont think there thirld world staff is trained well at all in how to deal with memory issue patients.
