Warwick Forest is a continuing care retirement community, or CCRC, located along the line between Newport News and York County, that serves older adults with many different needs, so you've got independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all in one place, and this makes it easier for people to stay in the same community even if their health or mobility changes over time, with cottages, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, and even detached homes available for independent living, which is nice because you can choose the space that fits your style. They've got a small and supportive memory care unit set up for folks with dementia, offering personalized care plans and lots of activities to keep minds active, with a special focus on safety and security, including secure entryways, a 24-hour emergency call system, and security staff always around, which helps families feel more at ease. The campus is well kept, with nice landscaping, walking paths, and outdoor spaces where you can sit or stroll, and inside you'll find clean, organized common areas, artwork on the walls, cozy touches like a working fireplace, and places like a library, home theater, billiards room, hobby and woodworking shop, workout room, an indoor saltwater pool with a hot tub, and even a hair salon, so there's almost always something to do or a quiet space to enjoy.
Residents get meals prepared by staff and served in multiple dining rooms, with both formal and informal options, a bistro, and a full bar for those who like some variety, and the meal plans are flexible, so you can switch it up, and catering is available for special occasions. Social life is encouraged with activity programs, including movie nights, study groups, trips out to places like the Ferguson Center, wellness and fitness classes such as yoga or balance training, and transportation services to get to local restaurants, parks, or appointments. The Advantage Club Membership program is available too, and for those needing health support, there's a clinic on site, medication management, help with daily living if necessary, and staff who provide supervision and support 24 hours a day, which is really good for peace of mind.
The campus is gated for security, has covered parking, and every residence has access to Wi-Fi and emergency systems. Warwick Forest is known for its steady financial footing and has earned CARF accreditation for its quality of life improvements, and as part of Riverside Health System, there are connected healthcare options, rehabilitation services, outpatient therapy, and even adult day services. There's a clear focus on making things easier for residents while respecting individual needs and choices, so people can age in place with the level of support that suits them best. Maintenance, housekeeping, landscaping, and trash removal are all included, and the friendly staff work hard to keep a safe, calm, and welcoming neighborhood feeling all around. It's a large community with space for about 273 residents, which means there's always someone around for company, but it's small and supportive enough-especially in the memory care area-that nobody feels overlooked.
