My mother was a resident at Marigold Place (now Summer House Alexandria), and we had a "beautiful" experience! My mother was a very strong willed, independent woman who raised 6 children on her own. As a daughter, it was very difficult to realize that I couldn''t care for her at home alone. I have children of my own and I have to work. It took my mother falling and having a severe injury BEFORE she consented to going there. She stated, " I wish I would have gone sooner when we initially toured because I may not have fallen and injured myself so badly." To make a long story short; we toured with Dawna a year prior to her move in but she was too hesitant to give up her home. We finally moved in when she became bed/chair ridden and needed Hospice. My mother lived there for 6 months, and she loved every minute of it. She became very "spoiled" and felt like she always had family there when I couldn''t be there. The initial transition was rough, but it was because she was so independent and had to learn to ask for help. All of the staff understood how difficult it was for her to give up her old life and were so patient to learn her "new" routines. The staff assisted me with her care and hospice set up when the time came, and she received the "extra" love that she needed before her passing. I always like to tell her story because her fall and the length of time she laid on the floor in her home may have been prevented her sudden decline in health. I cannot thank Summer House enough for giving my momma the "BEST" final months of her life with love and support. Dawna made the transition easier on me and allowed me to be her daughter during a difficult time. I will forever sing their praises! I would encourage anyone to take the leap early enough to reap the benefits of all they have to offer! They made one of the toughest decisions I have ever had to make so much easier! Thank You Summer House staff for loving my momma as much as we did!

I moved my mom from another AL facility two months ago to Summerhouse. It has been a good and pleasant move, from the first day I walked into the facility. A night and day experience, to say the least. Your staff are profession, and seem to want to go above and beyond in doing their jobs, unlike where we were before. The facility is really nice, clean and well kept up. I, for the first time in a while, trust my mother’s being cared for, as she should be. Please thank your staff!

Our experience with Summer house has been exceptional. Dawna has stayed in contact with me since 2020 when my mother and I first toured the Marigold house. When we finally decided to move my mother in to an assisted living Summerhouse was out first choice. Dawna welcomed us with open arms and a smile. Maggie has been wonderful and Robert has helped us with a smile and professionalism in transitioning my mothers room to a home. Thank you Summerhouse staff.

I decided to go visit Summer House without an appt. one day for both parents. I had a 2 hour break from work and I had been wanting to check it out for months. The day I went I was so exhausted and emotionally and physically spent and Dawna Johnson met me at the door. I asked if I needed an appt. to talk about the facility and she said no ma''am come right in and we can sit in my office and talk. She went over a pkg. with me and made me feel right at home and then we went on a tour of the place. She spent so much time never rushed me through and she was so personable with me. She was just the one I needed at the time, she calmed me from my worries and stress I had been having and I felt so relieved when I left. She never pressured me but gave me hope and stories of other residents that sounded like my parents and told me how much they adjusted and how happy they were once they came. She covered all the basis with me in such a gentle and kind way. I could tell she loved the residents and that she was loved by them she is very respectful of them. When I returned the following week with my parents for lunch and a tour she was so gracious to them and took the time with them and had great patience, love and respect for them. Just encouragement the whole time. Her personality is perfect and her experience and care shines through! I can tell you she has checked in on them making them feel at home now that they are a resident and I really appreciate her!! I am thankful God placed her in my path, it made me decide not to look anywhere else. I am pleased and my parents are adjusting well with smiles on their faces. Thank you, Terri Deville
