reviewed on: 09/23/2013 by DaphneInitially we were to go Assisted Living. On the "move in" day we were informed after 6PM that we needed to leave the property because the paperwork was not complete, this after sitting with Hermitage staff from 3-4PM to confirm that all the paperwork was complete. My relative ended up the next day at the Emergency room with a catheter. The Hermitage declines to support catheter management in Assisted Living, but did provide a room in their health Care facility. Next we moved out of the Assisted Living facility and terminated that contract. The Hermitage Health Care unit provides 24/7 care for high and low functional residents, meaning alzheimers and catheter management residents are cared for in the same facility without any separation. This was depressing to my high functioning relative. The overall quality of care was ok, but not great. We often found the urine bag full and in need of emptying, and the staff while friendly, made little attempt to engage with my relative, involve her in activities or proactively address her depression and condition. We moved to another facility after 30 days.
I have been very pleased.
reviewed on: 03/31/2014 by KarenI have been very pleased. I think you get a lot for your money, there seems to be a lot that they offer. At this point there really isn't anything that needs to be done better or improved. They have a choice at every meal, which is nice. It's run by the Virginia United Methodist Church, which is something that we really liked.
Wonderful place!
reviewed on: 01/23/2015 by AnonymousEverything at The Hermitage has been fantastic so far. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, and were right there for us throughout the whole sales and move-in process. The facility itself is clean and well kept, and the room they had available was just right for the loved ones that we were searching for. They even do a great job with the food! I would give them top marks across the board, it really has been a great experience!

reviewed on: 02/16/2017 by Joan AdairA clean friendly place 5 minutes from our kids. Staff exceptional, food choices delicious, as many activities as one would want, including trips to government buildings/museums which are quite close. Apartments are large and seem to be renovated often. One can have as many or as few services as they wish. The building also has a theater, a gym, and a large lobby where residents like to congregate. A nice treat we have each morning is a drink made with a variety of fruit and veggies . There is daily newsletter listing both daily and weekly activities. The library also receives copies of the two local newspapers, which are a popular read every morning.
