Overview of Mulberry Creek Assisted Living

In Martinsville, VA, Mulberry Creek Assisted Living offers four care types, assisted living, nursing home care, skilled nursing, and memory care.

Under assisted living, there is somebody for dressing, for bathing, and for taking medication. Supervision behind a secured entrance is what the memory care tier provides against a wandering risk. Nursing home care and skilled nursing both require a nurse’s license behind them.

Needs that grow can be met here rather than somewhere else. Respite supports a short stay, booked for whatever keeps the usual caregiver from it.

The count here is 60 beds, with 3 hours and 21 minutes of nursing attached to each resident daily. Three payers are taken here. Medicare covers the short skilled run once a hospital stay is behind somebody. Medicaid helps where a household’s savings will not reach across a long stay, and private pay draws on a family’s own funds.

Transportation and a Salon both show as amenities, with Rehabilitation Services handling therapy. Sixty for Walk Score means some errands can be walked, and somebody without a car handles those alone. Kailey Joyce is the administrator.

Overview of Runk & Pratt Residential Adult Care of Lynchburg

Runk & Pratt Residential Adult Care of Lynchburg in Lynchburg, VA, is named for four care types. Those are assisted living, adult day care, memory care, and independent living. Assisted living brings help with bathing, dressing, and taking medication while residents’ apartments stay theirs. Independent living comes without the daily care and with everything else.

A secure setting with staff watching inside it is what memory care comes to, meant for a person liable to wander. The daytime option runs through working hours for somebody who goes on living where they live.

Three of those levels are residential, so needs that deepen later do not send a family looking. The bd countreaches 94 here, and Alice Bryant is the administrator.

A Wellness Center and a Fitness Center cover the exercise side, and a garden is there for time outside. A salon handles grooming, and Activities are named among the amenities. Fifty-one is the Walk Score, and that’s classified as somewhat walkable, with a handful of errands walkable on foot.

Pets are allowed here, and an animal may accompany a resident moving in. Somewhat Walkable is what a 57 Walk Score gets the area; a portion of errands is manageable on foot.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in Virginia

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Virginia?

Assisted living in Virginia supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does Virginia Medicaid cover memory care?

Virginia Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including Virginia) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 304 memory care communities in Virginia. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in Virginia?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing.
