Because We Care

Because We Care sits at 9712 Jefferson Ave in Newport News, VA, and operates as a senior living facility with a range of residential and health services, and you'll find the staff offering assistance with daily tasks, health needs, meals, and laundry, which means residents don't have to worry about chores, and the indoor common areas give people plenty of space to gather and socialize, whether they want to do activities on-site or go offsite for outings, and they also offer devotional activities for anyone interested. The care types here include convalescent care, adult home care, assisted living, hospice care, continuing care (CCRC), memory care for those with Alzheimer's or dementia, and services like physical rehab and addiction medicine, so the staff stays available 24 hours a day to help in emergencies, and they also help with medication, diabetic monitoring, incontinence, and moving residents safely when needed. Meals are served one or two times a day in the dining areas, so residents have balanced food without cooking, and Kosher meals are an option along with general healthcare and ambulatory services, and there's parking for residents who drive, but pets are not allowed. The facility includes laundry and housekeeping services and provides rooms with various amenities, and they take several forms of payment, including major credit cards, checks, and PayPal, though the building stays closed on Sundays and has set hours on the other days. Residents who need transportation for appointments or errands can arrange it for an added cost, and you'll find special assisted living services at The Hidenwood Retirement Community, which helps with things like injectable medications and occupational therapy. Funeral, memorial, and sympathy flowers, plus bouquets for weddings, proms, graduations, and other occasions, are also available through their floral department that can put together arrangements such as corsages, boutonnieres, hairpieces, handheld bouquets, sprays, and wreaths, so people can mark important events, but that shop operates alongside the main care services. The community supports independent and assisted living for seniors, providing memory care and residential care options, and there's always staff on hand to respond. The atmosphere focuses on trusted, family-friendly living and serves as both a care home and medical center.
