Arlington, Virginia Senior Living Community

A Wonderful Active Lifestyle

It's never a dull day at Emeritus at Arlington! Our daily and monthly calendar of events is full of exciting programs that strive to enrich and engage the lives of our residents and their families. We offer a wide variety of activities that encourage the strengthening of their physical and mental functions. Our Hobby Shop is open to those who like to explore their creative side through different art mediums. We have community guests that come in to facilitate educational and spiritual groups and discussions. Our "Green Thumb Gang" keep all of our indoor plants well groomed and, during the mild weather, attend to our outdoor gardens. The "Give Back Group" takes on community projects by volunteering their time and talent to local agencies. In the immortal words of Art Linkletter, we too believe that "Old Age is for Sissies" and that maintaining an active and fulfilling lifestyle can have a positive effect on one's "golden years".

Partnering With The Local Neighborhood Community

Our staff and residents continually partner with our local community. We work with local schools, churches and civic organizations to promote various drives and causes. From our strong presence at the area Alzheimer's Association Chapter's "Walk to End Alzheimer’s" to hosting intergenerational programs with children, to collecting items and stuffing stocking for the "Stockings for Seniors" project, we have our pulse on what is going on in our community. We are proud to be able to give back to those who may be less fortunate than ourselves.

Fine Dining

Our Dining Service Team works tirelessly to provide the service and quality one may find at a local dining establishment. Meals are served in courses by our Wait Staff. Our Dietician Developed Menus include a choice of 2 entrees along with a list of standard alternates that meet the culinary and nutritional needs of our discerning customers. Each month a special "Candlelight Dinner" is served where residents may invite guests to join them at dinner . In addition, we have weekly "Resident Featured" dishes where our chefs recreate dishes from recipes supplied by our residents. Many residents take an active role in this by donning an apron and actually helping out in the preparation!
