The Kensington Falls Church

The Kensington Falls Church has been part of the Arlington Chamber of Commerce since 2017 and offers seniors assisted living, memory care, couples care, and rehabilitation services in a setting that feels familiar and comfortable, which some folks really find calming as they get older, and there's always a focus on strengthening people's lives even as things get harder, so they have services for both those who need a little daily help and those dealing with memory problems like Alzheimer's or dementia, and those services include things like medication management, daily cleaning, around-the-clock licensed nurses, and nearby access to the Inova Fairfax Medical Campus and Virginia Heart in case anyone needs more serious medical help. Residents stay in suites or other floor plans and can join activities every day-stuff like special events, regular structured programs, and even holiday gatherings, and the Connections Activity Room and Haven Activities Room are spaces where these things happen. You'll find staff who are described as loving professionals, and there are nurses, directors, and wellness program leaders working seven days a week, so families know there's always someone available. The community has a tradition of full-service dining with flexible hours from breakfast through dinner, so folks can eat whenever they want between 7:30 am and 7 pm, and they can invite friends or family for a meal without it being a bother, and there are always meal options planned with nutrition in mind, plus nearby places like CVS Pharmacy and Starbucks for convenience. When it comes to care for memory issues, there are two separate neighborhoods built to support those with dementia or Alzheimer's to keep things safe, reduce confusion, and prevent wandering, while Life Enrichment coordinators keep the calendar full, aiming to engage mind, body, and spirit-sometimes with things like the Kensington Club, a program for specialized care, and other times with crafts, games, or special events like the Mother's Day Tea. The Kensington Falls Church holds the BCAT® Certified Cognitive Center of Excellence recognition, which means they follow a tested approach for cognitive care, and the team coordinates between medical, activities, and dining staff so people feel supported, plus they provide volunteer opportunities if people want to give back or help out. Caregiver resources are part of the services, offering tips and information for families dealing with aging or dementia at home, and there's the option to tour the place virtually too, and you'll find Wi-Fi, pet-friendly spots, and spaces made accessible for wheelchairs, all set within a culture defined by staff kindness and helpfulness. The community receives high ratings for care and cleanliness, and while no place is perfect, folks here are surrounded by programs designed to enrich life and keep things as joyful and dignified as possible, with support for independent living, home care, and couples wanting to stay together.
