Review of First Colonial Inn
reviewed on: 10/16/2020 by Harold S.I want to express my appreciation and thanks to all of the staff for the services rendered to us residents during this unsettling time brought on by the pandemic. All of you have had extra work in controlling entrance to the facility, serving meals, delivering mail and performing temperature checks daily with friendly greetings and smiles. It is evident that you have been concerned with our welfare and safety and we should all be appreciative. KUDOS to all!
Review of First Colonial Inn
reviewed on: 09/17/2019 by Lawrence S.The reality of learning that you will have to live the rest of your life in Assisted Living is not pleasant when you are a widowed, eightyish male, on your own, that needs help. Knowing all the Assisted Living facilities in your community because you were here, before they were built, doesn't help much in making a decision. Therefore, a list was made, and I used the internet to cross reference my goals. Top of the list was a two bedroom, living area as close to a 1,000 sq feet as possible, with as many windows as possible to let in light and fresh air. Then, comes a central location near your family, doctors, hospital and major shopping center. Then, it comes down to quality of staff, dining facilities, wellness facilities, and overall feeling of the community. This is a process of elimination, a lot of phone calls made and reading reviews; therefore, the need for this review. I found most all of these requirements at First Colonial Inn but knew few people at the facility. I had driven by the entrance hundreds of times in my life, and although it was tucked away behind pine trees and landscaping, it is very pleasant to the eye. It is an apartment type of complex with two courtyards separating the buildings with a portico entrance. I decided all the positives outweighed the social contacts, and found the interviewing process to be informative and quick. I've moved into a four room apartment (two bedrooms, living room, and dining room), kitchen, and 2 baths which accommodates me fine with room to spare for a full time nurse, if needed in future. Good mix of independent living/assisted living people, great staff, good food, with a wellness center and rehab therapy services to support the needs of their residents. Now I'm gaining weight (not good), rehab has cured my vertigo, and in-house physician, [name removed], is a joy to be around. Every facility has its strengths and weaknesses, but management seems to pitch in where needed and does a first-class job to meet needs of its family! All of this in four months. My family and friends that shop in Hilltop stop by to say hello. I enjoy the fresh air, watch the ducks in the morning and have become a happy camper!

reviewed on: 10/16/2020 by Linda S.A really big thank you to you and your staff for taking such good care of my Mom and all the other residents. It's a big relief knowing that all of you care for them like family everyday but especially during a crisis like we face now. Thank you for keeping the families up-to-date on what's going on. Mom and I talk daily and she tells me how you and your staff are taking the extra steps to keep the residents safe and entertained. Thank you so much for everything you are doing.
My Visit to the Community
reviewed on: 07/13/2017 by AnonymousI had a good tour with First Colonial Inn. I noticed that the people seemed to be mostly in their room. I didn't see much socializing between the residents.
Wonderful Community
reviewed on: 11/14/2021 by Sonia WMy mother moved into First Colonial July 2021. So far I have been really impressed with the staff and the community. Everyone there has been very helpful and goes above and beyond to make sure my mother is taken care of. It was a difficult move her, leaving her home of 20 years in Alexandria, however everyone at First Colonial has made her feel welcome and she is very happy there. I highly recommend First Colonial Inn!
