Lucy Corr sits in Chesterfield County, Virginia, at 6800 Lucy Corr Boulevard, tucked away among quiet trees and surrounded by parks, shops, and nearby Swift Creek Reservoir that folks can visit if they want to enjoy a little bit of outdoors or run to a restaurant. The place has room for 240 residents with 48 beds set aside for assisted living and others for folks who need different levels of care, so people live here in senior apartments, cottages, or in spaces for more help, depending on what they need. Lucy Corr offers several types of care like assisted living, independent living, memory care, and even long-term or short-term rehab in its Health Care Center, which gets called things like the Adult Day Center for day programs, and there are special names for most programs and services.
The staff at Lucy Corr try to make life easier for seniors with care and help, and the place is known for special touches, like a dental clinic backed by the Lucy Corr Foundation so qualifying uninsured seniors can get dental care at no cost, and the foundation also goes to work on things like art therapy, modernizing clinics, and inviting local people to volunteer. There's always something happening, whether it's gardening, art classes, holiday dinners, or tea parties. Seniors can take part in arts and crafts or join walking groups, and there's a focus on social programs and making sure all residents from the apartments, cottages, or the healthcare part of Lucy Corr feel like they're part of a community.
The property was built to grow with the needs of seniors in the area, and the nonprofit structure, with the Lucy Corr Foundation as support, helps the place stay focused on the people living there, from the rooms' careful designs for safety and comfort to Life Care contracts that guarantee a place to stay and long-term health care for as long as someone needs it. Lucy Corr doesn't feel stiff or cookie-cutter, with its unique program names, scenic setting, and a small-town sense where residents, staff, and families come together for daily life.
