    About The Jefferson

    The Jefferson has served seniors for over 35 years, offering independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, and memory care services, and you'll find air conditioning throughout the building, good wheelchair access, and both restrooms and parking right on site, so daily needs are easy to manage. You can sit outside on nice days, and residents often enjoy chef-prepared meals and snacks any time, while support like bathing, dressing, and medication help is always available when needed. The place tries to make things personal, using one-on-one care plans that focus on what each person wants and needs, aiming to give people some peace of mind in their own ways.

    The Jefferson pays attention to safety and health, earning the WELL Health-Safety and WELL Equity ratings, and they go by all Virginia rules and background checks, so you know staff get checked before hiring. There's care for folks at many stages, with live-in support at residential care homes for people needing more help, and trained aides who offer non-medical home care and company for those who live independently. The staff helps folks with VA long-term care benefits, including Aid and Attendance, which can make it easier for veterans to stay as long as needed.

    You can take a tour to see what a regular day is like or check out condo units, some of which residents update and decorate themselves, and some new or newly renovated listings. There are condos with add-ons like doormen or parking for those who want more convenience, and the property features feel like a luxury hotel, with options like water aerobics, live entertainment, guest lectures, and activities planned for every interest. The real estate side covers condos, lofts, single-family homes, and row houses, with a guide to neighborhoods around Washington, DC, and a map for easier property searches. You'll also find a five-star rating system and detailed reviews, since U.S. News & World Report named The Jefferson one of the Best Memory Care and Best Assisted Living places for 2025.

    Sunrise Senior Living amenities and support are present here. The Jefferson uses a holistic approach, blending wellness with daily living, and always tries to offer ways for people to stay active and involved in a community that pays attention to their lives.

    About Sunrise Senior Living

    Beginning with a single community in 1981, there are now more than 280 Sunrise Senior Living communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. Each of our communities maintains the mission laid out by Sunrise founders Paul and Terry Klaassen more than 40 years ago: to champion quality of life for all seniors. The Klaassens’ vision to redefine senior care resulted in a resident-centered approach to care that focuses on the individuality of each resident and has set the standard in the assisted living industry. We are defined by our people. Our team of serving hearts are guided by our mission, Principles of Service and Values – all of which help encourage independence, preserve dignity and enable freedom of choice for each resident.
