Morningside of Charlottesville provides two levels of residential care: Assisted Living for adults who need routine help with daily tasks and Memory Care for residents living with cognitive decline. Both programs are structured to deliver ongoing supervision, medication administration, and personal‐care support within a secure setting. Residents who are prone to wandering—whether during the day or at night—receive added monitoring, and exit doors are alarmed to reduce the risk of elopement.
The community accepts individuals with complex care profiles, including those who present combative or other challenging behaviors, need wound management, rely on oxygen, require specialized diets, or maintain diabetic regimens ranging from oral medication to sliding-scale insulin. A licensed nurse (RN or LPN) is on staff, background-checked caregivers are on duty around the clock, and a podiatrist visits on site. Bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting can be performed with full assistance, and the team is trained to handle transfers that span stand-by supervision through full Hoyer-lift support, including care for residents who are bed-bound.
Private apartments are available in several layouts; some include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent heating and cooling controls, and basic cable service. Because configurations vary, prospective residents should confirm which features are present in the specific unit they are considering.
Meals are offered three times daily with both set menus and on-order selections, and snacks are available between meals. Dietary modifications—such as low-sodium, diabetic, or texture-altered plans—are coordinated by staff to align with medical orders.
Residents have access to on-site parking, wide hallways and ramps for wheelchairs, a barber and beauty salon, exercise and movie rooms, a wellness center, community gardens, scheduled religious services, internet connectivity, and arranged transportation for errands and medical appointments.
