Assisted Living in Staunton, Virginia
"We have promised ourselves that we shall always treat our residents as we would our own loved ones. Nothing less than our best will do."
This is a simple promise that the staff at Emeritus at Staunton — and throughout Emeritus Senior Living communities — has shared since 1999, when our community first opened its doors. It's a simple promise to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful — a promise to become extended family to the seniors entrusted in our care and to our retirees who have chosen our community for its active lifestyle.
Right at Home
Set on 22 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds with a courtyard and lovely gardens, Emeritus at Staunton is considered one of Virginia's premier assisted living and Alzheimer's communities. Located close to Highways 250, 11, 64 and I-81, our community offers 99 apartments on two floors. Here our residents — in many cases, with their pets — enjoy retirement living. Yet should you need a helping hand from our warm and caring staff, we also offer complete assisted living services, tailor-made to your needs. Our services focus on wellness to help you maintain your health, so you can live as independently as possible.
Join Their Journey — Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
Our community also offers an innovative memory care program, Join Their Journey®, for seniors affected by Alzheimer's or dementia. Because your family's experience will be unlike any other, our goal is to get to know you and your loved one, so that we can offer support and solutions for your individual situation. We "join the journey" of your loved one by recognizing individuality, encouraging choices and allowing residents the dignity to live in a secure, personalized and familiar setting that feels comfortable for them.
New friends, new beginnings
With its family-friendly atmosphere, Emeritus at Staunton feels like home the moment you walk through the doors. Our common areas — including our lovely dining room, library and TV room — give residents and their loved ones the opportunity to get to know one another. We also offer a wide range of activities each month, including several active clubs, weekly shopping trips, van rides and outings to seasonal events. While Emeritus at Staunton is located in a rural area, our community is close to Staunton Mall, Wal-Mart, Waynesboro Town Center and Gypsy Hill Park. Our community is also convenient to Augusta Medical Center and a nursing home rehabilitation facility if ever needed.
