My Mother didn't require a great deal of assistance but she certainly deserved a caregiver who was engaging. All of the nighttime care that they provided slept the entire time, every night. I know this because we had cameras set up which we notified the agency of. We had a few caregivers who were lovely, but often time we had to ask for substitutions. When my Mother passed they didn't even have the decency to reach out to us. Even when I text one of my contacts with The Key to notify them of this I still never heard a single word. It is clear that they are a business and care more about making money then the care they provide. Very disappointed.

A Truly Supportive Memory Care Community…read more I noticed there's currently only one other review posted. I appreciate that perspective, and I wanted to add my own experience as a longtime family caregiver. I'm not an attorney or a healthcare professional - just someone who's spent the last decade immersed in elder care, including leading caregiver support groups. My mom has lived at Chantilly Heights for over two years, and I'm sharing based on that firsthand, ongoing experience. My mom has lived at Chantilly Heights Memory Care since December 2022, and our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Fun fact: she earned the rare distinction of being the first (and to my knowledge, still only) resident to move herself in - meaning she was physically fit enough to do it with me and a U-Haul we rented together! I spent six months researching facilities before choosing Chantilly Heights, specifically looking for a community dedicated solely to memory care (rather than combined assisted living/memory care facilities). After experiences with two other facilities and reviewing many more, I became convinced that a specialized memory care environment would be best for my mom. Chantilly Heights (then known as Arbor Terrace Fairfax) has consistently proven that belief correct. When I first toured, Cre Jackson, the Facilities Director, was the first person to take me around. Cre set a welcoming tone from the start and has remained a trusted advisor ever since. Rachel Moore later guided us through onboarding and did a stellar job walking us through every step. While Rachel has since moved on (as another reviewer noted), my experience has been that from the front desk to the kitchen team to management and care staff, the people at Chantilly Heights genuinely care. It's clear for many that elder care isn't just a job - it's a calling - and the emotional intelligence they show daily is remarkable. That said, no place is perfect. There have been periodic staffing changes (common in this industry), and about six months after my mom moved in, Arbor Terrace divested, with Hamister Group taking over and rebranding the community as Chantilly Heights. That transition brought challenges, but through it all, the team - particularly Executive Director Brian Zurakowski -remained committed and supportive. As the only child of two parents facing late-stage degenerative disease, I can say this journey has been made far more manageable thanks to the team at Chantilly Heights. I believe strongly that contractual relationships should be rooted in fairness and satisfaction, and Brian's team has more than upheld their end over the last three years I've been involved with them. During my mom's time there, she transitioned from the higher-functioning to the lower-functioning neighborhood, giving me a full view of the community's care across different needs and stages. Based on this experience, I've confidently recommended Chantilly Heights to several friends - and two have since moved their own parents in. This is hard work, and not everyone is cut out for it - but the staff here perform beautifully at a very difficult and important job. I also appreciate Chris Mays for sharing his experience. Having supported another family member through a similar transition, I suspect his review reflects the challenges of the handoff from Arbor Terrace to Hamister. I've spent many hours with Brian and his staff and have always found them to be responsive - and importantly, proactive. They don't just react to issues; they work with me to stay ahead of them. In closing: If you're considering Chantilly Heights, don't base your decision solely on Yelp reviews (including mine!). Visit. Talk to the staff. Ask for family referrals - I know many caregivers like myself would be happy to share our experiences.

My dad had already been diagnosed with dementia when he moved into assisted living at Brightview…read moreFair Oaks and I always expected that he would eventually end up in their memory care unit. What I did not expect was Brightview's management team making me feel very pressured into moving my dad to memory care before I thought it was appropriate. I felt like they were argumentative and abrasive in their meeting with me, and their reasons for wanting to move him were alarming and scary. I wish I had known at the time that as a family member you have the right to see the staff's written reports about your loved one, you don't have to take management's word for it. In my case, I installed a video camera in my dad's room which proved to me that their assessments of him were not accurate. They added unnecessary additional stress and worry to what is already an incredibly hard thing to go through, and they made me fearful because I could no longer trust them. I removed my dad from Brightview's care as quickly as I could and he is now living in a new community.

My father was sent to Manor Care Fair Oaks for rehab following a fall that resulted in a serious…read morehead injury (from which he was quite confused and agitated) and a lengthy hospital stay. He came out with two stage 2 pressure sores, which the ER staff at the nearest hospital discovered after one of his 3 falls in 2 weeks. They found the sores while cleaning old, crusted excrement off of his buttocks because the staff at the "rehab" facility couldn't be bothered to help him to the bathroom. They just put him in a diaper and then refused to change or clean him. When I brought this to the director's attention she said the ER nurse was lying. Then she yelled at me, saying my father wasn't an appropriate patient for the facility. Somehow this didn't stop her from accepting him as a patient and cashing his Medicare checks, but whatever. Another time I visited, my father smelled like feces, which nobody did anything about until I asked multiple times. When it was all over, the room still reeked because they left sh*t smeared on the wall (see pictures). When I alerted the staff to the problem, they shrugged and didn't do anything for 30+ minutes, so I ended up cleaning it myself. Another time I came to visit, my father almost fell, but I managed to catch him and lower him gently to the ground because I'm not strong enough to deadlift a 175-lb human. When nobody came to see what happened (this wasn't a quiet situation), I peeked around the corner to the nurse's desk and nobody was there. I called for help for 10 minutes before someone showed up, and they acted annoyed that I was yelling while my father was lying on the cold, hard, dirty floor. The doctor who supposedly oversees care for the patients in the facility, without examining him or doing any tests, diagnosed my father with diabetes, which he didn't have. He was taking a medication commonly prescribed for diabetes, but he was taking it for heart failure. I hope she doesn't actually treat patients. Finally, when I sprung my father from that hellhole, I was presented with a garbage bag full of laundry, which they had told me they were sending out to be washed. Everything was soaked in urine, and there were solid pieces of feces in the bag. I suspect this might have been because I complained about how my father was neglected. My father died in hospice at a better-staffed and -managed place 2 weeks after I got him out of this abusive, corrupt excuse for a health care facility. He probably would've died around then anyway, but it haunts me that he spent some of the last weeks of his life in that horrible place where he was ignored and neglected while he was confused and scared.

What happens if the doctor is a pediatrician -- would adults then be turned away as well? Urgent care centers are supposed to provide basic, accessible care, especially in situations where patients need timely attention. Turning away a minor accompanied by a parent due to internal staffing limitations does not seem reasonable or patient-centered. This clinic is worthless
