Overview of Elancé at West End

Elancé at West End offers assisted living and memory care in Alexandria’s Landmark neighborhood. Assisted living includes help with dressing, bathing, and medication while the resident keeps a private apartment. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

Both care levels are available on one campus. That may suit a resident whose needs could grow over time, since moving to another care level can happen without leaving the community. Elancé at West End has 127 beds.

Housing includes studios, suites, one bedroom residences, and two bedroom residences. Larger layouts can work well for a couple moving together, while a studio offers one private space.

The area has a Walk Score of 86, placing it in the very walkable range. Most errands can be done on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may still be able to get out independently. Pets are allowed, allowing a resident to keep a pet at the community.

Mr. Martin W. Brown serves as the administrator.
