Overview of Chestnut Grove Assisted Living Facility

Chestnut Grove Assisted Living Facility is a senior care community administered by Lenny Wilkinson in Richmond, Virginia. The community has earned the prestigious title of the top assisted living community in Richmond for three years in a row, a high-level distinction that highlights its standing within the local senior care market.

The community maintains a healthy occupancy rate of approximately 82%, which is closely in line with the Virginia state average of 85.7%, with 70 of 85 beds occupied. This indicates consistent resident confidence and steady demand, along with open availability.

The community has undergone 12 total inspections, with violations found in only 41.7% of visits, which is significantly better than the Virginia average of 64.3%. While seven of these inspections were complaint-initiated, the total deficiency count is just 8, which is far lower than the state average of 32. Additionally, the recent inspection in July 2025 resulted in zero deficiencies. Although a complaint was substantiated in late 2024 concerning an incident report, the broader history shows a clear commitment to regulatory excellence. There are no records of fines, license enforcement, or immediate jeopardy findings.

Focusing on individualized support, creative programming, and nutritious meals crafted by professional chefs, the community offers assisted living and memory care services. The leadership team also follows a resident-centered philosophy, using life enrichment programs and a calendar of events to ensure high quality of life and daily engagement.

With a combination of a favorable compliance history, stable staffing, and a focus on personalized, home-like care, Chestnut Grove Assisted Living Facility is an ideal choice for families in the Richmond area seeking a highly rated assisted living or memory care environment.
