Hermitage Richmond provides a welcoming home in Richmond, Virginia to residents with all stages of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia-related illnesses — from a resident with early stage Alzheimer’s in Assisted Living to a resident with dementia who needs 24-hour nursing care.
Hermitage Richmond also offers Memory Support for residents…singles or couples. At its later stages, dementia disorders often require specialized care and a secure setting. Spouses often want to be close to their partner but no longer feel it is safe for them to provide all their care and security. At Hermitage Richmond, couples stay close to each other even in these challenging situations. The partner with needs is happier with frequent visits and the healthier partner can have a life outside of the constant vigilance and care required for their partner who suffers from a memory issue.
Team members who work directly with residents in our dedicated memory support households receive additional training and support to offer compassionate attention and specialized programming designed to engage residents at every level of memory support living. A structured calendar of activities and a dedicated team that builds relationships with each resident provides a sense of community. Every aspect of these neighborhoods is designed to meet each individual resident’s specific needs with compassion and dignity.
Loss of memory does not have to bring a loss of dignity, activity, or the feeling of independence. Hermitage Richmond offers three specialized, secure households within our historic campus in Ginter Park. These households are designed to meet the ongoing needs and accentuate the lives of those living with dementia-related illnesses and Alzheimer’s.
