Whispering Pines Assisted Living Facility
Whispering Pines Assisted Living Facility is an assisted living community administered by Ginger L. Wright in Luray, Virginia, providing supportive services in a home-like setting. With 24-hour nursing coverage and a physician on staff, it offers a higher level of medical support than many similarly sized communities in the Page County area of the Shenandoah Valley. Serving 40 residents with a 60-bed capacity, the community is currently operating at approximately 67%, which indicates availability for interested families.
The community has undergone 8 state inspections, fewer than the Virginia average of 14. 75% of which resulted in cited violations, higher than the state average of 64.3%, while a total of 21 deficiencies have been recorded, which is below the statewide average of 32. The most recent inspection on September 24, 2025, conducted as a renewal review, identified issues related to staff first aid certification, medication management, and emergency preparedness documentation and drills. Earlier findings also included gaps in supervision, dietary oversight, and accuracy of individualized service plans. However, complaint investigations on record were not substantiated, and there are no records of fines or license suspensions, though families are suggested to ask about corrective actions following the most recent findings.
Private and companion rooms with private bathrooms, individual climate control, wireless internet, a beauty salon, and shared common areas are provided, while services include three daily meals with snacks, an emergency call system, and a full calendar of social, creative, and spiritual activities. The community also provides continuous nursing coverage and access to a physician, along with respite care and rehabilitation services.
Whispering Pines Assisted Living Facility is an ideal option for older adults seeking a smaller, rural assisted living setting in Page County. With private bathrooms and individual climate control dedicated to enhancing personal comfort, and on-site medical support, the community is suitable for those who require regular health monitoring.
