The Westminster at Lake Ridge is a senior assisted living facility with a very bright and professional medical staff located in Lake Ridge VA. The Westminster has its own health center too. One of the great perks is that this location is almost hidden away in a suburban area, which helps the the facility remain safe and secure; providing its residents privacy and an environment away from the busy hustle and bustle of this area. However, it does keeps vehicle traffic to a minimum when the residents are out and about enjoying the weather because it's not a through street. The facility is sizable enough to permit family and friends to park at the facility to visit their loved ones. In addition, the facility has a roadway saturated by beautiful trees, which I find to be very pleasant for anyone in this location.

Our family's experience was great! For us it was a multi-year process but that was not the fault of the people at Westminster at Lake Ridge (WLR)! Once my parents made the decision and we filed the paperwork and application we were notified promptly that we were approved and placed on the waitlist for the unit they wanted. We received periodic emails during our wait time and my parents received vouchers to come try a couple meals at WLR (delicious). Unfortunately mom passed away but dad wanted to go forward with their plan of moving to WLR when an apartment was available. Once we received notification that a unit had become available, Cailin (sales) was able to accommodate our request to come early the next day to view the apartment so that we could leave for vacation after the visit. The rest of the process went very smoothly and it was made as pain-free a process for my father as possible. Even having to observe restrictions due to COVID-19 and deal with rain, move in day went great! There was lots of support from James, and visits from other WLR staff to see if we needed anything and introduce themselves. Dad even had a social distanced visit from his mentor in the community, Bill. My dad loves living at WLR and tells us all the time how happy he is, what he ate and who he has met on his walks through the hallways. I know I will forget someone so will not try to list everyone but there was a lot of communication from everyone each step of the way. From the Sales group, to Design (when dad picked paint colors and discussed any possible changes to the apartment) to Move in, to Independent Living services and front desk personnel as we were learning the process, everyone was cheerful and very helpful. Thanks to everyone who helped dad make this needed change in his life! We love seeing him so happy and stress-free.
Having lived here for more than seven years, I'm firmly convinced that I could not have chosen a better retirement community. The slogan \Engaged Living\ is totally accurate, and fully describes both the lifestyle of the residents and the attitude of the administration that is both caring and forward-looking.
Westminster has attractive housing and picturesque surroundings. Although it is described as a continuing care facility, the restrictions on those health insurances currently being utilized raises doubts about the actual reality of continuing care.
We visited five continuing care communities before choosing Westminster at Lake Ridge. All of them were nice: the apartments, the eating facilities, and various other amenities. All of them had staff who were informed and very helpful. We chose this community for a variety of reasons. Most important, it provides ready access to children and grandchildren. We like the relatively small size of the community. Woods have been preserved on site and walking and hiking paths established in those woods. Many regional, county (both PW and Fairfax), and national parks are within easy driving distance. Retail amenities are an easy drive away. Finally, the residents and staff we met were friendly and welcoming.
