Whispering Pines Assisted Living Facility
Whispering Pines Assisted Living Facility offers assisted living and respite care in Luray, VA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication, with residents living in either private or companion rooms.
Respite care provides a short stay when a resident’s usual caregiver needs time away or recovery. Together, these options may suit someone who needs daily support or a family arranging temporary care.
The community has 60 beds. Private rooms offer a single living space, while companion rooms suit residents who want to share their accommodations.
A beauty salon, transportation, rehabilitation services, and creative, social, and spiritual activities give residents access to personal care, outings, therapy, and organized programs within the community’s offerings. A Walk Score of 58 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to complete selected nearby errands independently.
Ms. Ginger L. Wright is the administrator, and Susan Saunders is the director.
