Cardinal Village

Cardinal Village, located in Fredericksburg, Virginia, is part of the Senior Lifestyle network and Paramount Senior Living. The community offers several levels of care, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Skilled Nursing, and a Continuing Care Retirement Community, which means people can move in knowing support is there as their needs change, and those who need a little help or constant attention will find rooms and care to match. Cardinal Village uses unique names for different care levels, so things don't get confusing, and the Memory Care community, established in 2013, was built specifically for residents with Alzheimer's, Dementia, Parkinson's, Lewy-Body, and other related conditions, and has features to keep them safe and comfortable, like a single-level enclosed design, two secured courtyards, and walking paths that help residents stay active without worrying about getting lost. The memory care area offers sixty light-filled apartments all on one level, with private studio and companion suite options, and has finely appointed common rooms, a multi-sensory reflections room for calming anxiety, and interior and exterior areas for socializing or getting fresh air. The facility supports adults over 55 who want maintenance-free living or need help with daily tasks, and the staff are trained to handle different stages of memory loss, providing help twenty-four hours a day with licensed nurses and emergency systems in place for those with dementia. Residents get dining options where they can eat comfortably, interior and exterior communal spaces for gatherings, and amenities made to appeal to seniors' needs. Cardinal Village also provides information about the neighborhood like the weather, crime rate, health facilities, and nearby parks for families who want to know what life looks like outside the building. Services include personal care, nursing, assistance with daily activities, and therapies, plus support for veterans and their spouses. There's a focus on safety, health, connection, and a vibrant social setting, with extra help to let residents "age in place" so they don't have to move as their needs change. The community room welcomes gatherings and social time, and the outdoor courtyards are professionally landscaped for comfort. With a rating of 9.6 out of 10, Cardinal Village is the second highest rated senior community in Fredericksburg, and it's known for its attention to seniors who have mental and physical health needs, making it a dependable choice for older adults and their families.
