"My mother moved to The Goodwin House in Alexandria a few years after my father passed away. She absolutely loved it. She had a sunny one-bedroom apartment, and she participated in a number of activities and classes that were offered. She made new friends and enjoyed delicious dinners and, often, musical programs in the evenings. When her health declined and she had to move onto the healthcare unit, I knew she would be well cared for. I was only three hours away and could visit her often. I am so grateful to everyone on the staff for the delicious meals, interesting activities and local trips, and the wonderful care they took of my mom. Everyone was professional, yet compassionate and thoughtful" - Sue… Read more

"I was a patient at the facility for about 6 weeks and I must say I found conditions deplorable. This is an institution that has a 194 bed capacity yet during the time I spent they ran out of bed linen on a regular basis so much so that on several occasions Iwas unable to lay down because they couldn't make the bed. Additionally they also even more frequently ran out of towels and washcloths and at the best of times they were rationed. There were other items of basic care that were lacking especially larger size adult diapers and a deficit of cleansing wipes which was an additional problems with the lack of washcloths etc. Patient care was haphazard. If you rang the call bell it might be answered in a few minutes or two hours later, even if answered within a reasonable time their might still be a substantial time for your request to be honoured whether it was as simple as a glass oh water or as important as pain medication or to cleaned up after a bowel movement.
