Merry care nightmare.

I wouldn't recommend this place for anyone. They told us to stay away for 4-5 days so she could acclimate. They never called once to say she was having any problems. When we went in on the 4th day. She was in her bed uncovered and in a soiled diaper. The next day the same thing but a pad under her soaked through. We 911'd her out of there. They never checked on her. There is so much more to the story. Like I said I wouldn't put a dog in there.

Perfect fit for Mom

I did not give it a 5 because I think the Private Pay focus is important and it was not clear to me after my first few communications with your staff. The facility feels very homey with the Executive Director as the parent. Everyone is. We friendly and happy to meet new residents and their families.

Review for Viva Memory Care at Chesapeake

Staff has been helpful and has made my grandma comfortable. The different sides (wings) they had 1 side that is geared more toward people with dementia that are further gone, which i felt was important for my grandma, who was mentally more there than not. She had memory problems, but when she was mentally there more than some others. Unfortunately, she was placed in the wrong wing though

TLC for your loved one at an Affordable Price

I feel like the techs genuinely care about the residents at Commonwealth. They're taking care of 50 residents in memory care alone. So instead of waiting for them to contact me, I will reach out to them for questions. They're on staff doctors are great @ evaluations. They'll change medications as needed and have a pharmacy they work with to keep things simple. They'll also contact you if medication changes are a lot different than what was previously prescribed. I'd highly recommend Commonwealth. They're very good with my father and conveniently located as well. They're also the most affordable, but provide exceptional care and service.

We would give a 5 for all categories. We are so pleased with the care our mom is receiving at Commonwealth Memory Care. The home is very well kept, the staff is amazing. We couldn't be any happier with her being there. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families.

Commonwealth Memory Care at Chesapeake

My loved one is currently a resident at Commonwealth Memory Care at Chesapeake and I visit her every week. The main problem that I have is other residents going into my loved one's room when she is not there. They take shoes, break things, come into her room at night. There seems to be lack of security for this being a Memory Care unit. Also, be aware that male and female residents are all together and the visitor that woke my loved one was a man. It was not good and my loved one was very alarmed by it. So was I! My loved one says that her food portions are small. She also has had more falls than when she was at my home. Needless to say, she will be checking out of Commonwealth Memory Care at Chesapeake soon.

Peace of mind and excellent service

From [name removed] and [name removed] making the initial experience so smooth to all the staff that made my dad's time there special, it just was a good experience. I live out of state and to have that level of communication and care gave me the peace of mind I didn't have prior.

Excellent service and special recognition

To all who read: Thanks to all of the staff at Commonwealth Memory Care. Each staff member deserves special recognition, but I would like to offer special thanks to one of the employees who assists my wife [name removed] on a continual basis. I want to acknowledge the continued and much appreciated support that [name removed] (not sure of last name) is providing for my wife [name removed]. She keeps me updated on [name removed] needs and updates me on her recent behavior when I come to visit. Please extend my highest compliments to [name removed] for her hard work. Commonwealth is lucky to have her as an experienced and caring team member and so is our family. Again [name removed] and management term: thanks to you and the rest of your team as well for the continuous support you provide my wife and all the other patients there as well. Russ Watkins

Go Somewhere Else

My father was a resident at Commonwealth Memory Care at Chesapeake and our experience was terrible at this facility. I heard staff being rude to my father and to other patients. My dads things went missing all the time. Women's clothes would be in his clothes, his room was dirty, they never swept under his bed and once I went in and his sheets had blood and urine on them. I told the staff how dirty everything was and about his sheets and I had to change them and sweep his floor. They actually gave me the broom and sheets to do it myself. I would never recommend this place to anyone. The staff acts like they hate their job.

A Good Place for Mom

I would recommend the community to other for their loved ones. The staff are good at keeping the family updated on my loved one. Some of the activities available include singing, music, chair exercises, field trips, and more for the residents to choose from. They have a family portal called smile, and will update what your loved one has been participating in and they upload photos of your loved one as well. Some of the care the community is able to provide includes: medication management, bathing, and dressing assistance.

The every day staff is really good, my wife has raved about that. As far as medical care, follow up appointments and things like that, it is taking a little bit of a hit there. There are so many people that wait times are a lot longer than we would like. Overall we have been pleased and would recommend Commonwealth to others looking.
