Our Lady of Peace offers a calm and friendly place for seniors to live, with staff who are helpful, joyful, and always kind to residents and visitors, which seems to make everyone feel welcome and at ease. The community has won awards like Best of Senior Living and Best of Senior Living All Star, showing that they work hard to provide exceptional care and support for their residents, and there's a real sense that people living there get plenty of help when they need it. Folks have lots to do, with offsite outings and on-site activities that help keep everyone active socially, physically, mentally, and emotionally, from crafts and games to gardening and movie nights in a comfortable theater, plus a chapel with stained-glass windows where people can attend non-denominational services or just enjoy the quiet. The grounds include peaceful gardens with a statue of Mary, a community garden, and beautiful landscaping, and there's a safe, paved walkway and inviting entrances, so it's easy to get around or find a spot to relax outside, and even pets are welcome.
The facility is a Continuing Care Retirement Community, which means seniors can move in while still active and independent, and then get more help when they need it, whether that's assisted living, memory care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, or full nursing care, and the staff is on site 24 hours a day so there's always someone to check in or help out. People can live in comfortable apartments with studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts, and every place comes with its own heating and air conditioning controls, WiFi, oversized windows, and bathrooms with safety features, so it's easy for family members or guests to visit in a home-like setting. Daily meals come from chefs and meal planners who make sure nutrition is balanced, with a registered dietitian involved and menu choices for three meals a day in a restaurant-style dining room, while housekeeping, laundry, and linen services keep living spaces clean and comfortable.
Our Lady of Peace gives residents options for everything from independent living to assisted care or nursing and rehab, and they have a full range of medical services, including medication management, diabetic and incontinence care, on-site speech, physical, and occupational therapies, and a dedicated memory care space called The Christopher Center, which has its own bright atrium, activity rooms, music room, and a secure courtyard to help prevent wandering. The Reflections Memory Care Program uses modern therapeutic approaches to care for people with memory loss, aiming to reduce confusion and support day-to-day well-being, while personal care plans are worked out for each resident, so anyone who needs help with tasks like bathing or medication reminders can have support delivered right in their apartment. For seniors who want to stay at home, trained aides can provide non-medical home care and companionship, and the community also offers adult day care, home health, and respite care services.
Amenities include indoor common areas for gathering, arts and crafts studios, a modern fitness center, a beauty salon, a library, and a community mini-bus for trips or appointments, as well as personal laundry services, weekly housekeeping, and a variety of recreational and cultural activities, plus transportation for outings. Everything runs safely and smoothly thanks to features like controlled entry, outdoor safety, a strong emergency response system in every unit, and a backup generator that can power the whole community if there's an outage. The licensed bed capacity is 30 beds, with private and semi-private daily room rates, and there are staff on duty around the clock-33.6 full-time equivalent staff worked there with 10,607 patient days logged in the last year reported, and the facility is recognized in Virginia for nursing services and efficiency. Services can be arranged through JABA, and there's a full-time pastoral counselor for residents and families to support emotional and spiritual needs. Residents can enjoy life enrichment programs like happy hours, gardening, crafts, and games, with plenty of options so people can stay busy or choose a quiet moment if they prefer.
