Oakmont at Gordon Park
Oakmont at Gordon Park is a large-scale assisted living and memory care community managed by Hillary Akers in Bristol, Virginia, providing a warm, structured environment designed to offer personalized support for older adults with various care needs. This 167-bed community is currently operating at approximately 53% occupancy, which is significantly lower than the Virginia average of 85.7%, reflecting open availability.
The community has completed 14 inspections, which identified a total of 34 deficiencies. Additionally, a monitoring inspection on March 26, 2025, identified 7 deficiencies related to medication administration, the storage of hazardous materials, healthcare recordkeeping, building upkeep, and emergency protocols. Additionally, a complaint from November 2024 regarding staff records and resident supervision was substantiated. Although no fines or formal licensing sanctions are on record, the recent findings suggest that interested families should ask for updates on corrective measures implemented after the March 2025 inspection.
Extensive amenities and services are offered, including three daily meals served in a country-style kitchen, along with healthy snacks and scheduled local transportation. The programming also includes supervised daily activities, wellness exercises, and 24-hour staffing with licensed nurses and CNAs. While every private suite includes all utilities, cable television, weekly laundry, and general maintenance, a secured courtyard patio and specialized programs are also available for both assisted living and memory care.
With its immediate openings and solid service base, Oakmont at Gordon Park represents an ideal option for older adults seeking memory care or assisted living in the Bristol area. However, it is recommended that families review the latest compliance documents and discuss with the management about the improvements made following their 2025 regulatory review.
