English Meadows of Christiansburg provides two principal levels of care—Assisted Living and Memory Care—with medical oversight woven into both programs. Residents have access to on-site speech therapy, regular physician visits, diabetes monitoring, and respite or short-term stay options that follow the same clinical protocols as long-term placements. The community is secured, which is particularly important for Memory Care residents, and staff members are trained to respond to medical concerns around the clock.
Additional medical support is available through a broad list of on-site services that include incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, hospice care, medication management, and therapies delivered by occupational and physical therapists. The setting is designed specifically to accommodate memory loss, and visiting podiatrists help address foot and mobility issues. Because English Meadows operates as a Memory Care–only community in certain wings, the environment and staffing ratios are calibrated to meet cognitive and behavioral needs while still offering standard Assisted Living services elsewhere in the building.
Residential accommodations range from private studios to companion suites, and not every unit contains every feature. Some apartments offer balconies or patios, while others may be closer to the central fireplace or piano area. Wi-Fi, cable or satellite television, and individual climate controls are available in many rooms, and the property is fully air-conditioned with options for handicap-accessible layouts. Outdoor areas, a deck, and on-site parking support residents who enjoy fresh air or maintain their own vehicles. Pets are welcome in select units, subject to community guidelines.
Dining services provide three daily meals plus snacks, prepared to accommodate individual dietary requirements such as carbohydrate-controlled plans for residents with diabetes. Guest meals are available so families can share time with their loved ones in the dining room. Menus are rotated to prevent repetition, and staff members monitor intake and hydration for residents who need assistance or oversight.
Residents can stay active and engaged through an activity center that hosts dances, live music, birthday parties, yoga and chair-yoga classes, and structured fitness programs. A library and computer lounge supports quiet study or email time, while organized social outings and access to outdoor spaces encourage community involvement. The property also features a swimming pool for low-impact exercise.
