Tall Oaks Assisted Living sits in a quiet, wooded area of Reston, Virginia, just a mile from the Wiehle Avenue Metro Station and behind a small shopping center, so it's easy to find and quite peaceful at the same time, with lots of greenspace, patios, and raised garden beds for folks to enjoy. Since opening in 1988, the community's been managed by CSM Senior Living Management and has a stable team of licensed nurses available 24/7, never using agency staff, and the front desk is open from 7am to 8pm which makes things feel pretty steady and organized when you come or go. Tall Oaks offers various apartment styles-furnished or private studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom options, many with good views, and there's always a month-to-month lease arrangement without long-term contracts, while both long-term care insurance and private funds are accepted.
The place takes a straightforward approach to care-assisted living, respite care, rehabilitation, and memory care-including a unique Reflections Memory Care Program for Alzheimer's and dementia, plus transitional care for those moving between care levels or returning from the hospital, and hospice services are available. Residents get help with bathing, dressing, grooming, eating, housekeeping, and taking medicine when they need it, and Tall Oaks even provides clinical treatments, cardiac rehab, on-site lab services, and emergency or nuclear medicine if someone's health requires it, all without the need to leave the community. Therapy classes-speech, occupational, physical, or language-happen on-site, and plenty of medical equipment is available for rent for those who need a bit of extra support after rehab or an unexpected change. Licensed and registered nurses provide home health assistance, and the building has controlled entry, an emergency response system, and 24-hour security to help keep residents safe.
Living at Tall Oaks, folks get three daily chef-prepared meals, and there are many amenities like a beauty salon and spa, on-site theater, a library, and handy transportation services to help with errands or outings. Activities and events are regular features-arts classes, happenings, a strong volunteer program, and fun excursions to D.C.-area spots or air and space museums, plus there's a pet-friendly policy for those who want to bring their companions. The new outdoor plaza gives residents, families, and visitors a relaxing place for time together, and there are plenty of quiet lounges and reading rooms to retreat to when a bit of peace is needed.
With its organized crisis response and dedication to dignity, choice, and understanding, Tall Oaks makes it a priority to create a welcoming, homelike atmosphere where health, nutrition, and a vibrant community life get attention without too much fuss. Meals, personalized support, and a balance of social events with quiet spaces combine to help each person feel comfortable, respected, and engaged however they choose to spend their day.
