Parsons Residential Care Center in Chesapeake, VA provides an assisted-living setting that balances daily support with targeted clinical programs. Residents can tap into a structured mental-wellness program, short-stay respite options, and on-site physical therapy, giving individuals and families flexibility when needs change. The assisted-living team handles routine activities of daily living while encouraging as much independence as practical.
Additional medical features are built into the community’s daily operations. Licensed nurses are on site 12 to 16 hours a day, coordinating medication management, diabetic oversight, and hospice support when required. Occupational and speech therapists visit regularly, and residents have convenient access to podiatry, vision, and dental services. The center maintains state-regulated assisted-living protocols, emphasizing consistent documentation and communication with outside physicians.
Residential accommodations range from studio layouts with kitchenettes to larger units that can be furnished or unfurnished. Cable, Wi-Fi, phone lines, and in-unit washers and dryers are available in select apartments; not all units include every feature. Outdoor seating areas, a library and computer lounge, and community parking add practical options, and the property is pet-friendly for residents who meet the community’s guidelines.
Meals are prepared on site, with three daily offerings and an all-day dining menu to accommodate varied schedules. The culinary team can produce low-sodium, vegetarian, kosher, gluten-free, or other physician-directed diets as needed. Menus focus on balanced nutrition and portion control rather than gourmet themes, reinforcing the facility’s health-first approach.
Residents can take part in organized clubs and communities, scheduled arts and crafts sessions, and events in the activity center. These programs are designed to promote social interaction and cognitive engagement without overscheduling those who prefer quiet time.
