Marian Manor sits on 12 quiet country acres in Stafford, Virginia, and has served Northern Virginia families since 1979. The place is family owned and operated, so people tend to know each other pretty well, and being a smaller setting with only 39 beds in the assisted living part means staff can keep up with everyone's needs, likes, and habits. The community helps people with dementia and Alzheimer's and can care for people who need high levels of help, even as their needs change over time. Licensed nurses watch over residents all day and night, and the staff ratio's about one to eight, which helps them give care that's tailored to each person. Folks here get help with things like bathing, dressing, medicine, and meals, plus there's skilled nursing, occupational therapist visits, and intermittent I.V. care when needed. People can live here while they're able to move around, and if they need a wheelchair or more care, they don't have to relocate.
The grounds have walking paths, gardens, and parks, so there's plenty of space outside, and the inside offers a calm and homelike atmosphere. Private and semi-private rooms are available, and some apartments allow pets. Meals cover many diets, like kosher, vegan, gluten-free, salt- or sugar-free, and others. Marian Manor offers a wide mix of activities, including movie nights, resident-organized events, religious services, and outings, plus things like on-site haircuts and a barber. There's transportation for appointments with a personal attendant, and the staff will help arrange pharmacy runs to places like CVS. Housekeeping, laundry, and linen services are part of the package, and rooms have Wi-Fi, cable, and are set up for accessibility.
The community takes both ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents, has secure grounds, and is known for helpful, friendly staff. Folks can get family counseling and extra support as needs change. All fees are all-inclusive, with no level of care charges or annual rate increases. Marian Manor's a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and its review scores from residents stand at 8.6 out of 10. The focus is steady care, comfort, and keeping people's dignity and peace of mind through every stage of aging or illness.
