Covenant Columns At Orchard in Henrico, Virginia, offers three levels of long-term care under one roof: assisted living, residential care home services, and a dedicated memory care program for residents living with mild dementia. The team is equipped to manage several diabetic care plans, whether a resident uses oral medication, receives insulin injections, or follows a sliding-scale regimen. This range of medical oversight allows residents to remain on site even as their health needs change, reducing the likelihood of disruptive moves to other facilities.
Round-the-clock support is backed by licensed nurses, routine background checks for all employees, and an awake night-shift staff. A fenced rear area adds a layer of safety for residents who may wander. Direct care includes full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting, as well as mobility help that spans walkers, wheelchairs, standby supervision, and one-person transfers.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, and residents may paint or decorate their space to reflect personal preference; however, not every room can accommodate every customization. Cable service is offered in many, but not all, accommodations. Common areas are designed for easy navigation, and wider doorways support the needs of wheelchair users.
Dining services feature a set menu prepared daily, complemented by an on-order option for residents who want something different at mealtime. Meals are planned to meet general nutrition guidelines, and the kitchen staff can adjust recipes to align with physician-ordered dietary restrictions.
Additional conveniences include on-site resident parking, outdoor areas where smoking is permitted, full wheelchair accessibility throughout the building, community-wide internet access, and a stair glide for residents who prefer not to use an elevator or require extra support on the stairs.
