Great tour!

I toured Sunrise of Old Town Alexandria during my search for an Assisted Living facility for my loved one. This facility was great. The atmosphere, tour guide, and cleanliness were also great!

We really like the facility and the only reason we gave the overall score a 3 is because they need more staffing. We are hopefully the staffing will improve.

Community Tour

I had a lovely tour at Sunrise of Old Town Alexandria. The facility was beautiful - absolutely gorgeous. The lady who did the tour was very nice. She tried to find out what exactly my loved one needed, and explained to me what they could provide. They had only just opened, so they didn’t have very many residents at that time, and I was hoping to have more people for him to interact with. Also, the cost was out of our range. But I thought it was a very nice place.

Sunrise of Old Town Alexandria was my favorite of all the places we toured. It was brand new. There was nothing not to like. It was just too expensive.

Feel confident about taking respite for yourself

We went with Sunrise of Old Town Alexandria because it was a brand new facility and I feel that the caliber quality of staff in a brand new facility rends to be at a higher level so that appealed to me. It is also 3 blocks away from where I live so it is convenient. I was impressed when I visited with the staff, they were very professional and had a great level of knowledge about dementia care. I would say that if you are considering respite care, make sure that you ask a lot of questions because I do not think the staff is geared towards respite, they are geared more towards long term care. It was a little bumpy the first few days trying to figure out what we needed to provide. If you have devices needed to be used such as hearing aids, it is helpful to show the aids how to use them and clean them. I would absolutely recommend the facility to other families.

Highly recommended

We had an excellent chef to start with when I arrived and then she quit. They brought an intern in to train sous chefs and the biggest problem has been the food arrival time and the temperature of the food. I know that they are trying to work on it. The activities director is extremely versatile and very welcoming to new ideas. The facility is pet friendly, I was able to bring my cat and we all really enjoy the animals. They do have a designated area outside for smoking. I would definitely recommend Sunrise to others looking, the architecture is amazing as well as the location. Next door is the priory which is now owned by classical movements, so we can sit outside and enjoy amazing music for free.
