Friendly and Caring Staff
They've been wonderful (despite my mother's inability to come to terms that she is where she needs to be. When it comes to the cleanliness I have no complaints. The staff members are angels. I probably should knock off one half point, but that would be unfair because they are understaffed. And that is more a symptom of the current economy and not the faults of CSL. The meals and dining receive a 3 because the feeling that I get from my mother is that the food is not the greatest.. Really not sure on the activities because my mother won't take advantage of the activities they do have. And that's on her, not CSL. The value for cost is not a 5 because it's quite expensive. I don't have any data for comparison, so I'm not sure about this rating.

Hermitage Review
The main problem is very substandard nursing care for the assisted living residents. Our family member who resided their noticed this as she is a retired RN. It was her main reason for leaving, should be become ambulatory in the future. She said that there is a lack of supervision of the nurses and some residents suffered unnecessarily, due to substandard medical care. The air conditioning and heating is obsolete and uncomfortable. If the above two items were corrected, the Hermitage would be a very good place.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Virginia regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Virginia regulations for Assisted Living.
