The Landing Alexandria

Overview of The Landing Alexandria

Situated at 2620 Main Line Blvd in Alexandria’s Potomac Yard neighborhood, The Landing Alexandria operates a 220-bed assisted living community administered by Jamie L. Houston, an executive director with 25 years of senior living and clinical nursing experience.

Current occupancy stands at 51%, substantially below Virginia’s 85.7% average. The facility does not accept Medicare or Medicaid.

The facility provides independent living, assisted living, memory care, and bridge programming for transitioning residents. Housing options span studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments from 424 to 1,083 square feet. Dining encompasses three full-service restaurants with flexible menus prepared on-site. Amenities include fitness center, spa, salon, activity programming, 24-hour concierge, housekeeping, linen service, included utilities, pet policies, and medical alert systems with wearable technology.

Since opening in February 2022, The Landing has accumulated 41 deficiencies across nine inspections, exceeding Virginia’s assisted living average by 28%. The facility’s 4.6 deficiencies per inspection more than doubles the state average, and its 89% inspection violation rate runs 25%age points above Virginia’s norm.

Medication management deficiencies recur across inspection cycles: improper storage, administration without physician orders, and incomplete documentation in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Service plan failures persist, with July 2025 findings documenting missing health care oversight, absent DNR orders, and incomplete planning within required timeframes. Staff training and certification lapses spanning first aid certification, tuberculosis risk assessment compliance, and annual training hour requirements, appear across multiple years. Emergency preparedness reviews, fire drills, and resident care protocols showed gaps in 2023 and 2024.

Substantiated complaints document inadequate personal care (bathing frequency, compression stocking application), slow call bell response (documented 34-minute delays), and January 2024 physical restraint of a resident without physician authorization.

The neighborhood offers moderate walkability (Walk Score 68), with the facility positioned 2.0 miles from Alexandria’s city center and 1.63 miles from the nearest acute care hospital.

The Landing serves independent, assisted living, and memory care residents seeking residential care in northern Virginia, with the understanding that documented medication management failures, service plan deficiencies, and substantiated care incidents reflect systemic compliance and care quality concerns.
