We know that she is creating a schedule that supports the safety and wellbeing of the residents. The nursing team is more professional and responsive as well. The new people she has hired seem to be more experienced and helpful, and Beatrice makes clear what the different staff and aide roles are responsible for. We appreciate her efforts and the positive impact it is having for our mother and the important business of running a safe and healthy environment.

My 5 STAR RATING IS BASED ONLY ON THE NEW DIRECTOR CHARLENE. They are on their 3rd director since…read moremy loved one has been in this facility. My opinion is they finally hired the proper director. She is experienced in the operational side and has worked in many areas. She is educated and committed to the residents care. Charlene has a strong sense of family and community. She communicates effectively to family members and staff. She is hands on,and spends quality and sincere time with the residents. She has a keen sense of the residents and staff. What more could one ask for in a director. Charlene's wisdom and inner as well as outer smiles are easily absorbed in the facility and among family members. She is easy to approach. Hopefully she will be recognized for her dedication, authenticity and work ethic. My experience in the past 2 and half years at this facility has been less than average, due to lack of trust with the head of the nursing,and difficulty dealing with corporate( a help line doesnt get me to the proper people, and they remain behind the scenes collecting paychecks , not concerned about the customer thats paying big bucks).

My sib is a shy person, and recognizing this, the staff facilitated her meeting other residents that they knew she'd get along with. The facility has a very homey rather than institutional, feel to it. There are plenty of planned activities that residents are encouraged to take part in. A special shout-out to the nursing staff for their professionalism and for being quick to respond whenever I had a question or issue. The peace of mind I got, knowing that sis was being well taken care of was priceless.

I'd give it 10 STARS if I could! I cannot say enough good about Paramount Senior Living in…read moreManassas. As someone that has TWO parents in Memory Care in the center all I have to say is...I can rest easily knowing they are being truly cared for. I've had my parents at another national community and it was a terrible experience. Paramount staff is caring from the front desk to the caregivers to nurses to the senior and executive team. My parents love the food, they get help with their showers, and the caregiving team truly looks them over to make sure everything physically is going well. (One caregiver found my moms leg swollen and it was discovered she had a blod clot.) Had it not been for her looking out and paying attention to the leg change this could have turned into a stroke. I'm positive this would not have been caught at the other place I had my parents. If you want caring facility, of professional team members, where the staff seems genuinely happy and proud of what they do...check out Paramount Senior Living in Manassas!

We recently used a Home Well aide to prepare my parkinsonian husband for a big family wedding and…read moreto take care of him at the event and to accompany him back to the assisted living facility where he lives. The aide arrived independently, as the rest of us family members were already at the wedding. The aide dressed him and got him cleaned up, accompanied him in the wheelchair van, wheeled him around during the entire wedding, helped him eat, use the toilet. He treated my husband with the upmost respect and was lovely and cordial to all of the wedding guests. He accompanied him back to the assisted living facility in the wheelchair van and prepared him for the night. Because he did such a fabulous job of caring for my husband, the rest of us could relax and enjoy the wedding. I would use the Home Well aide again in a heartbeat!

From the owner: Transitional Care. We are focused on reducing rehospitalizations by creating a happy and safe…read moretransition home. In facilities patients have round the clock care, so our program is designed to offer frequent care immediately upon returning home, and tapering care down as clients becomes more independent. This program, coupled with our Fall Prevention program, has been very successful in reducing falls and rehospitalization during the initial transition home. Fall Prevention. All our caregivers are trained at orientation, and again annually, in the tactical skills needed for body mechanics, mitigating environmental risks of falls, and addressing critical factors such as new medicines, non-compliance with discharge orders, or ongoing medical conditions. Before they go into the field, all personal assistants demonstrate competency with these required skill sets. Life Enrichments Activities Program. Our care targets the social/emotional well-being of our clients. As part of their initial assessment our clients are interviewed to discover their likes and interests, which we systemically introduce into care plans. LEAP allows our personal assistants the opportunity to truly engage with clients and improve their quality of life during the time we have the honor of working with them.

I originally chose this organization as we had used their services back in 2020 and they were…read morefantastic. I would normally give one star based on my experience overall, but I am giving two stars because the OT Jamelle and the PT Kelly were wonderful with my dad and providing family training. I myself am a healthcare worker and I'm aware of what the services should entail. They are clearly vested in their businesses bottom line, not patient care. My dad was seen by an licensed PT for the initial evaluation and the he was then assigned to a PTA, who was very nice, but would've done absolutely nothing with my dad other than sitting in chair doing leg exercises, had I not requested she work on functional tasks performing sit to stand, walking with his walker and assessing if he could do stairs as he was independent and able to climb 14 steps prior to his recent hospitalization. Furthermore when the PTA did come she was only there for usually 30 mins max. As other people had noted in the reviews, and where I think the problems stem from, are the higher ups the branch manager and above. They did an awful job in scheduling caregivers and abysmal communication/responses when reaching out to them. Sadly this organization he really declined and I would not recommend them for any home health services.

After losing both of our parents this year, care was a big deal and a huge part of the equation…read more We worked with 3 different agencies, and only wish we'd met Steve & Andrea sooner, because beyond my spreadsheet audit of features offered by many, many different options, our family truly fell in love with the incredible guidance, care, compassion, assistance, top level help, and on and on, that they facilitated for us. I was instantly comfortable with their management approach, their medical expertise, their wealth of information & resources, their creativity in solving problems, their generosity of time and senior product sourcing, and more. Most importantly, I was truly touched by all of the heart that went into not only meeting my dad, assessing his needs, detailing and implementing some very creative medical and home comfort solutions, and making a very difficult path in life eased by support and compassion at every step. My wonderful dad, who wanted anything BUT around the clock care, was very skeptical at first, and assured us all that he didn't need any help. By the end, he was calling his aide "his buddy," was telling jokes and showing extreme gratitude to the whole team, and not only accepted his need for help, but realized he was getting the best help possible. Also - they literally meet you where you are in the process. I'm super organized and made my own spreadsheets for tracking medicines & daily routines, but Andrea provided invaluable guidance on how to optimize Dad's care from every possible angle. Steve did a home safety inspection before Dad came home to ensure Dad was safe at home. They did so much for us... I cannot recommend Medical Consulting & Management highly enough. Don't wait to call; don't bother researching competitors; there's no one like them in town. Trust me, I did the research; I have the spreadsheets to prove it; I would call them in an instant if I ever needed help for a loved one.
