Recent reviews of Memory Care in Arlington, VA
Forest Hills of DC in Washington, DC
4.6

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

Arbor Terrace Prince William Commons in Woodbridge, VA
4.5

We chose HarborChase of Prince William Commons because they gave us a deal on the price and they provided my mom transportation to and from her dialysis procedures. My mom is in a private room here. The location of the facility is really easy to get to, very accessible for the area. I would recommend to others and already have.

The staff is very proactive with Mom and I know she is in good hands. I especially like how they remind the residents of meal time and medication management.
