Overview of Westminster Canterbury of Lynchburg

Westminster Canterbury of Lynchburg offers assisted living, independent living, memory care, home care, hospice care, nursing home care, and skilled nursing in Lynchburg, VA. The community opened in 1980. This range of care options can suit a resident whose needs may change over time, allowing families to consider different forms of support within one Life Plan Community.

Assisted living provides help with daily tasks while a resident maintains a degree of independence. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone living with dementia. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide nursing support for residents with more complex medical needs, while hospice care focuses on comfort near the end of life.

Home care allows support to be delivered in a person’s residence. Rehabilitation services and short term rehab provide a temporary care period focused on recovery rather than long term residence, and respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time to travel, recover, or manage another obligation. Medicare and private pay are accepted: Medicare can apply to short term skilled care after a qualifying hospital stay, while private pay uses the family’s funds directly.

Total nurse staffing is 6h 59m per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated per resident. Lori Sweeney is the administrator, and Sean Huyett is the director.
