    Too many callbacks and one couple we ended up with, ended up leaving us high and dry in the middle of the job.

    If you are lucky enough to get their loved one into Cherry dale, consider yourself charmed. I read…read morethe reviews for Cherrydale so I interviewed patients outside in the courtyard. What they told me is "Cherrydale is quirky but your loved one will get better" and this "place is better than a facility in Fairfax because there are single rooms as opposed to being three in a room". Based on this, I wholeheartedly pursued getting my father into Cherrydale. The rooms are nice, like a Marriott Hotel and the fitness and rehab center and rehab staff are excellent. Due to the COVID era, Cherrydale was short staffed so every now and then I asked the nurses for fresh sheets and changed my father's bed or helped him clean-up but my father was improving dramatically every day with the physical fitness. He came in a wheel chair, he left being able to walk without a walker. They have an excellent team so to have the most success 1) track your patient and communicate needs or questions with your social worker assigned to their case, 2) talk to the team that helps with discharge. Do not wait to get instructions for medicine and home care to the day before. With supply shortages, you need to prepare for discharge a week in advance. Ask the nurses to train you on anything --they offer family training but you have to ask in advance and you have to participate. Cherrydale gave my father a second chapter at 82. Three out of four doctors told me to take my father who was bed bound home to die after a serious case of pnuemonia where he became bed ridden. Four months later, my father is able walk almost 10,000 steps a day, entertain friends, and do house projects. Every time I see him, I am shocked at his recovery and I know it would not be possible without the program at Cherrydale. I am overjoyed and grateful. No one should take this place for granted and put your expectations into check. Your patient will get out of it what they put into it. Several patients told me my father would have to be encouraged to do his PT every day so for several weeks, I went to Cherrydale at lunch time to make sure he was getting his PT done. This advice was very smart. He resisted it many times but in the end I know he would not be walking 10k steps a day without this place.

    Worst place in the world. The only bright spot is the nice woman I talked to today about billing…read more But the treatment by the "nursing" staff was awful.

    This started with a 3 fusion neck spine, Inova Alexandria Hospital then Inova Mount Vernon (IMV)…read morethen Alexandria Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center (ARHC). At IMV I had one-on-one with PT (physical therapy), OT (occupational therapy) and SLP (speech language pathology) therapies, eight days, 21 hours. If I am wrong and the first day did not have any therapies then there were "only" 18 hours. That is real rehabilitation. ARHC is not rehabilitation. There were seven full days, the first was Friday and and absolutely no therapy on that Friday. All ARHC therapies are half hours. l add two more just to help things so there are better; that's 4 hours. To make it "fair" I'll chop off one IMV day to get them equal; that's 15 hours. ARHC is 27% compared for the same numbers of days. Rehabilitation? At ARHC I do not know if there is any SLP at ARHC; I did not get any SLP. The PT and OT staff are pretty good but have an environment not easy. Most have two or some even have more than two patients and few patients are just sitting on a chair. The "gym" is small and and the equipment very few, not good. Two exercise bicycles, a new one where the hand bar and pedals have no connection, strange and never to use again. An older and much better but the LEDs all gone so the therapy used their cell phone and tells a few things while someone else is doing something slow and more time. Most of the time were with 3 pound dumbballs, watched and counted but after twice done almost alone. The balance board was also good with the therapy placed to catch if I stumbled or let me between two rails. I've had bowel problems. That cause was not the ARHC staff. The problem was that after the mess it took more than 10 minutes to not get help with the red button. There were about 30 feet from my door with about four staff were chatting real loud (if not screaming) and I left my door not wearing any pants going to the other end to the desk at the hall end. Someone caught me real fast (not physical) and got back to fix it. That helped clean me up but it took more than a day to get the toilet and floor "reasonably" clean but not really clean. The food was the worst I have ever had. To be honest I am very picky and that does not mean that I what I like is what most people do like. But how could every patient get exactly the same thing that every one gets? How well do almost everyone think cooked food that is barely warm is OK. Some do actually have warm parts, but only in the middle and bottom on the plate, or you learn that you can get your plate heated in the microwave with those who bring and take the food. I like oatmeal cereal, when I cook it as the box says and use some milk and sugar. I tried them several times and spit them out. They were mostly cool not warm, sticky, tasteless, some lumpy, other times ground to nothing. I like scrambled eggs; these were OK and I ate all even if not warm. I ate about 20% of what I was willing the entire time I was there. The last full day I had a dizzy like never before and they put me in a wheelchair. They use a cuff and my heart was about 80/50 or 50/80. They sort of said I needed to eat if I wanted to live. I think that's enough. george.shaffer@comcast.net

    My mom has been at The Willow at The Boulevard Post Acute for almost two months following hip…read moresurgery. I was extremely anxious about placing her in a rehabilitation facility, especially because she has dementia and does not handle change well. From the very beginning, this facility has gone above and beyond my expectations. Aaron Rebuck was incredibly welcoming and kind when helping get my mom settled into her room. His calm demeanor immediately put me at ease during our first meeting. Our initial interactions with the nursing staff, Thea and Rose, were equally reassuring--they were compassionate, patient, and so gentle with my mom. At that moment, I knew she was going to be in good hands. The dining staff has been wonderful, ensuring my mom receives a well-balanced and nutritious menu. She has actually gained weight during her stay at The Boulevard, which speaks volumes about the care she is receiving. Physical and occupational therapy also went very well and contributed positively to her recovery. The doctors and nursing staff have been terrific throughout her stay. Tigist, the CNA, is truly a huge asset to The Boulevard team. She has provided exceptional care for my mom and is consistently kind, attentive, and compassionate--not just to my mom, but to all the residents. Milly is another outstanding team member; she is responsible, attentive, and wonderful with my mom. When my mom returns to her memory care facility, I will truly miss the staff at The Boulevard (Willow). We would absolutely return here if she ever needs rehabilitation care again. I highly recommend The Boulevard Post Acute for anyone in need of quality rehabilitation services.

    I have had two stays at The Boulevard Post Acute post surgery: November 2025 and April 2026. I…read morewould like to commend administrator David Stever and, especially, the wound team of Dr. Lewis Lapham and wound nurse Sharmila Sangwan for their vigilance and dedication. Boulevard also has an excellent PT staff. Extremely worthwhile in terms of recovery. Shout out to CNA Julia Randina and Mr. Armstrong!
