The Warren
The Warren is an assisted living community managed by Lori Myrtle in Woodstock, Virginia, providing memory care, assisted living, and respite care services. Serving 36 residents with a 45-bed capacity, the community has a healthy 80% occupancy rate, making it one of the budget-friendly senior living choices in the Shenandoah Valley.
The community has undergone 20 state inspections, 14 of which were complaint-initiated. While 60% of these inspections led to violations, a figure lower than the Virginia average of 64.3%, the total deficiency count of 64 is double the state average of 32. Additionally, the latest review in September 2025 cited multiple concerns involving staffing levels, staff training and certification, maintenance, safety protocols, and resident care plans. Previous investigations also confirmed issues with staffing adequacy, medication management, record keeping, and service planning. Although violation notices and corrective plans have been issued, no license suspensions or fines were reported.
24-hour staffing and nursing support are offered, alongside essential services such as medication assistance, health care supervision, three daily meals, housekeeping, and laundry, all of which are included in the residency agreement. Rehabilitation and respite care programs also provide for residents’ short-term needs. Emergency call buttons, Wi-Fi access, and a busy calendar of social programming are among the lifestyle services, as well as on-site religious services, ensuring a holistic approach to supporting residents socially, emotionally, mentally, and physically.
The Warren is a good option for families seeking affordable assisted living or memory care in the northern Shenandoah Valley. However, due to the frequent complaint-related inspections and the high number of recorded deficiencies, families are advised to visit the community in person to inquire about staffing ratios and current improvement plans.
