Wayland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits in Keysville, Virginia, and has served the community for years, changing its name from Britthaven of Keysville in 2010, and is now run by Wayne Cole. This center is part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC), so they offer different housing options and levels of care, and the community's part of Principle Long Term Care, with Raymond Hill and Robert Hill as its managers since 2011. The facility has 90 certified beds overall, with about 44 available as of June 2025, and takes care of around 45 residents per day, providing long-term care, short-term rehabilitation, skilled nursing, memory care, and hospice support, and they accept both Medicaid and Medicare. Residents often come here after a hospital stay, illness, or surgery when they need skilled care, covering needs like advanced bathing, dressing, transferring, medication management, and help for non-ambulatory residents, with specialized teams for medical, memory, and rehab care, including a Parkinson's PWR! Certified Therapist.
Residents have private or semi-private rooms, each with a bathroom, cable TV, phone, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and furnished options, plus inclusive pricing covers cable, Wi-Fi, and telephone, though the nurse staffing is about 3.44 hours per resident per day, which is a bit below the state average of 3.8, but nurse turnover stays lower than normal at 36.2%. The whole place tries to keep a lively, active community with programs that residents help run, daily scheduled activities, crafts, games, outings to local restaurants and parks, and the building itself offers amenities like a dining room for restaurant-style meals, options for special diets, all-day dining, a fitness room, movie theater, arts room, library, game room, garden, walking paths, spa, and wellness space, as well as activity lounges and group areas.
They've got support services like housekeeping, laundry, dry cleaning, transportation, parking, move-in coordination, and concierge help, while also using daily safety and infection control checks, mask requirements when needed, and high-standard cleaning, with advanced air purification methods and regular screening following CDC guidelines. The therapy gym's equipped with new tools for physical, occupational, and speech therapies, adaptive equipment, standing frames, a fully functional kitchen, free weights, and more to help people practice and regain skills, and there's a registered dietitian creating custom meal plans for allergies, diabetes, and personal needs. Family and resident councils meet to talk about concerns and look for ways to improve everyday life. There's also respite, acute, and routine general inpatient hospice care for those who need it, and designated outside smoking areas for those who do.
The place has received multiple accreditations, but like every facility, there are areas for improvement-the most recent government inspection happened more than two years ago and found 51 deficiencies, some related to safety with bed frames or infection control, with citations affecting quality of care and accident prevention. Still, the owners and staff aim to keep residents' dignity, health, and comfort a priority, with an environment built for healing, views of the outdoors, and social, emotional, and spiritual opportunities to help everyone feel safe and at home during their recovery, therapy, or long-term stay.
