Autumn Care of Chesapeake sits in a quiet residential area at 715 Argyll Street, Chesapeake, VA, surrounded by woods and close to highways like I-64 and State Route 190, so getting to the place is easy for families who might want to visit. The building holds up to 117 residents with both private and semi-private rooms, all built for comfort and safety, and you'll find safety and handicap features in place, along with a sprinkler system, emergency call systems, washers and dryers, and even kitchenettes for those who like having that little bit of home feeling in their rooms. The grounds are always kept neat and peaceful, giving people a chance to sit outside or walk a bit if they want, and there's a game and activities room, cable TV, WiFi, dining rooms, and guest parking.
The staff count's over 100 full-time folks who've had a lot of training and genuinely care about the residents, treating everyone with respect, privacy, and dignity, handling everything from personal care like dressing, bathing, grooming, and laundry to skilled nursing services and memory care. There's a focus on both emotional and physical well-being every day, so staff talk clearly with residents and families and create personal care plans built around each person's needs, whether for short-term rehab, long-term nursing care, hospice, or respite care. Physical, occupational, and rehabilitation therapies are offered in-house, with a fitness center and a salon and barbershop for daily needs. Meals are served in a dining room, but residents who wish can use kitchenette options. The place has transportation services for appointments and errands, plus activities like arts and crafts, educational programs, health and wellness events, and group games to keep everyone connected and engaged. Housekeeping keeps the rooms tidy, and management watches over daily operations.
