Seaton Chesterfield sits in Richmond, Virginia, near the James River, and serves up assisted living, independent living, memory care, and short-term respite care for up to 120 residents, with a license number 1104681. The community tries to blend the comforts of home with support and 24-hour care from trained staff, including a licensed Health Care Director on call day and night. Residents can pick from private or shared suites with a variety of floor plans and features like emergency call systems and in-room dining. They have a dining program that lets folks enjoy chef-prepared meals in an elegant restaurant-style dining area, with menus that often include farm-to-table ingredients and classic favorites, plus homemade desserts. Every month, the fee covers three daily meals, basic utilities, weekly linen and housekeeping, and daily assistance with tasks like bathing, dressing, dining, and managing medications.
There's a strong focus on health and personal care with services like medication reminders, physical therapy, rehabilitation, and 24-hour nursing care, with staff trained in memory care approaches like SHINE® and Chronicles, both designed to support those with Alzheimer's and dementia. Seaton Chesterfield encourages social and spiritual life through its well-organized activity schedule, religious services, and programs like Second Wind Dreams, music therapy with SingFit, and a steady stream of celebrations planned by the Director of Celebrations. Residents can enjoy a well-stocked library, activity rooms like a game room and billiards, an arts and crafts studio, and even a fireside gathering area for relaxing or visiting.
Outside, the place offers landscaped gardens, walking paths, a private courtyard, and a community garden, while inside amenities include communal dining and plenty of spots to meet and mingle. Outings and transportation are available for shopping, events, and doctor visits, with a community van on hand. The facility allows small dogs under 25 lbs but doesn't permit cats or small dogs under that weight, and offers other supports such as move-in help and pharmacy coordination. Maintenance, concierge, and laundry services aim to make life easier.
For safety, all exterior doors lock, apartments have emergency systems, and the building uses a full sprinkler system. Everything is designed to let folks keep as much independence as possible while offering help when needed, whether in assisted living, independent living, or one of the specialized memory care programs. Seaton Chesterfield's mix of daily activities, dining, medical support, therapies, and personal care offers a setting for seniors to pursue hobbies, enjoy each other's company, and get help as they age.
