Colonial Manor

8679 Pocahontas Trail, Williamsburg, VA 23185
Overview of Colonial Manor

Colonial Manor is an assisted living community administered by Dr. Pedro Becerra in Williamsburg, Virginia, offering four distinct levels of assisted care alongside specialized memory care services. Providing 24/7 care and a response line, the community offers administrative hours on Monday to Friday, from 9 A.M to 4 P.M. Currently, the occupancy rate stands at approximately 28%, which is significantly lower than the Virginia state average of 85.7%.

The community has an extensive compliance history that warrants concern, as it has undergone 48 total inspections, which is well above the Virginia average of 14. Violations were identified in 95.8% of these visits, significantly exceeding the state average of 64.3%. Including the 11 identified deficiencies on the most recent inspection in September 2025, the community has 286 total deficiencies on record, which is well above the state average of 32. These included gaps in staff training, expired certifications, incomplete service plans, and issues regarding infection control, water temperature, and pest management. Reports also indicate a consistent pattern of substantiated complaints involving staffing levels and resident supervision. So, families should be aware that some residents were relocated in the past due to infestation issues.

Focusing on both medical accessibility and daily resident comfort, the community offers on-site physician visits, medication management, and mobile diagnostic services such as X-rays and labs. Three homemade meals daily, housekeeping, and various transportation options are also offered, along with a regular calendar of events and activities. For safety and social health, the community utilizes an emergency call system.

Notably, the license expiration date on file is listed as August 2022, so interested families should verify the current licensing status directly with the Virginia Department of Social Services.

Colonial Manor is ideal for families in the Williamsburg area who prioritize on-site medical access and multiple care tiers. Despite its open availability, families are encouraged to review its regulatory history thoroughly and discuss with the management the corrective measures taken to ensure the community meets their standards.

The community has a current occupancy of approximately 70%, suggesting open availability. Medicaid is also accepted, making it a more financially accessible option for families relying on this fund.

Out of 12 inspections, 7 resulted in violations, or 58.3%, which is slightly below the Virginia average of 64.3%. On the contrary, the total recorded deficiencies are 37, a little bit higher than the state average of 32. The most recent inspection on November 6, 2025, was a complaint investigation that identified issues related to discharge documentation and the return of resident property, although the complaint itself was not substantiated. A substantiated complaint in May 2025 resulted in a violation notice, with no associated fines or license actions. Recurring areas of concern also include admission and discharge processes, medication management, and maintenance of the physical environment. There have been no findings of immediate jeopardy or license suspension.

The community’s clinical approach emphasizes health and wellness, active living, nutrition, and resident support. Staffing also includes a physician, nursing services, licensed nurses, and certified nursing assistants, along with 24-hour staffing and security, providing a better clinical presence for a community of this size. Meanwhile, the dining program focuses on fresh, heart-healthy, and brain-supportive meals tailored to the nutritional needs of older adults. Financial support services are also available and may assist residents and families in navigating Medicaid and other funding options.
