Assisted Living, Memory Care & Nursing Care · Virginia Beach, VA

Overview of Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Founded in 1939 by the Dominican Sisters as a home for those with incurable cancer, Our Lady of Perpetual Help carries a specific identity that still shapes its care model today. The 95-bed nursing home, assisted living, and memory care community at 4560 Princess Anne Rd in Virginia Beach is not a generalist senior living facility. It is oriented toward serious medical need.

The clinical scope reflects that. Confirmed services include tracheostomy care, palliative medical care, therapeutic recreation, and social services, alongside a Special Care Unit for memory care residents. Laundry, barber services, and Wi-Fi are available. One- and two-bedroom floor plans give residents more space than a typical nursing home configuration. Sentara Princess Anne Hospital is about 3 miles away. The neighborhood is somewhat walkable (Walk Score 49), though most trips require a car; the facility sits 12 miles from Virginia Beach’s city center.

Current occupancy is 83%, with 79 of 95 beds occupied. Nurse aides contribute 2 hours and 29 minutes of care per resident per day; registered nurses account for 46 minutes. Terri Anderson, RN, LNHA, has led administration since 2004. State inspections have tended to focus on medication management, fire safety, staffing credentials, and care planning.

What the data and the history together describe is a faith-rooted facility that has centered complex and end-of-life care for more than 85 years. Families navigating serious illness, palliative needs, or memory care in Virginia Beach will find a care model here that was built specifically for that population.

Hours per resident per day — compared to Virginia state averages

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes. 45m per day ▲ 10% State avg: 41m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care. 42m per day ▼ 30% State avg: 1h 0m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Weekend RN Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends.
