Quality care with friendly staff
They have very flexible visiting hours and that has been so helpful. It's a smaller facility so I feel my Mom receives a good amount of attention. It is very expensive, but it is a very convenient location.

Overall a nice Community
There could be more activities for people in memory care. When it comes to the value for cost I did not do comparative shopping so I cannot say for sure but I'm very happy overall with the care of my mother is receiving at Benchmark in the memory care unit. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families.

Why does it cost so much for care
Toured this facility and was surprised at the cost of care compared to other facilities that I toured. Not only do they charge for the room, but for medications and care. My mother would of had almost [fee removed] worth of care cost, not counting the [fee removed]for the room. Thank God there was a community not that far away that was about [fee removed]dollars cheaper for the same care. A Place For Mom helped me greatly to find something more reasonalbe

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Benchmark at Alexandria

Benchmark at Alexandria offers Semi-Private, Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Benchmark at Alexandria 7.9 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
