Virginia Legacy is a residential assisted living and memory care home being prepared in Fairfax, Virginia, with a planned capacity of six older adults. We are completing the building and pre-licensure process and are not yet accepting residents.
One monthly fee is intended to cover care, meals, laundry, housekeeping, activities, utilities and medication administration. Rates depend on the room and the level of care assessed, so we go through them with a family directly rather than publishing a figure that may not apply.
Clinical policy is being shaped with a PhD-prepared, board-certified gerontological registered nurse as Senior Clinical Advisor. The licensed operational roles Virginia requires will be appointed before opening.
We are preparing an application for residential living care and assisted living care, including a proposed secure environment for residents with cognitive impairment. Final services depend on licensure and individual assessment.

The threshold
You are not choosinga facility.
You are choosing whose house your mother wakes up in, and who notices when she is not herself.
Six is a deliberate number
Six is not a limit imposed by the building. It is the number that lets one household of caregivers know six people properly — which is why there is time to sit down with someone, and why nobody has to explain who they are twice in a week.
A small team means residents are not reintroducing themselves to a rotating staff. Familiarity is not a luxury for an older adult; it is the thing that lowers anxiety.
A quieter appetite, a new unsteadiness, difficulty finding a word — familiar caregivers are better placed to notice changes in everyday routines. Our planned approach pairs that familiarity with clear communication when families have questions.
Communication follows from the same arithmetic. In a home this size it is not a newsletter; it is the same handful of people, reachable. You help write the care plan — an Individualised Service Plan drawn up within seven days of admission, carrying a resident or family signature, reviewed annually and on any significant change. Medication errors are disclosed to you in writing, because that is written into the policy rather than left to anyone's discretion.
One tableEveryone eats together, in one room
One table
Breakfast runsuntil nine.
Nobody is woken to fit a schedule. Someone who has risen at half past five for sixty years can go on rising at half past five.
A day shaped around six people, not a rota
Three meals and two snacks daily, on a fourteen-day rotating menu reviewed by a registered dietitian, with therapeutic diets accommodated and substitutions available at any meal. Hydration is available all day, not at set times.
The day has a shape rather than a timetable: morning greetings and breakfast until nine, the late-morning programme, lunch at one table, quiet time and personal care in the afternoon, dinner in the early evening, then settling at each resident's own pace.
In a house of six, a preference is simply known. There is no chart to consult to learn that someone takes their tea black, sleeps badly on a full stomach, or would rather sit in the garden than join the activity.
Alongside meals there is a daily activity programme, including therapeutic memory-care activities, personal laundry and housekeeping weekly at minimum, and one round trip of medical transport a month. All of it sits inside the single monthly fee rather than appearing on a bill afterwards.

Someone is awake
The hardest hoursare the quiet ones.
Our licence application is for awake overnight cover. Not a call button and a sleeping room — someone up, with the lights low.
Who is here, and what they are allowed to do
The operating plan provides for a care-team member on site twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, with awake coverage overnight. Final staffing is subject to licensure, assessed resident needs and required approvals.
Medication is administered by a licensed nurse or a Registered Medication Aide certified by the Virginia Board of Nursing, recorded on a Medication Administration Record at every pass — every drug, dose, route and time, the initials of whoever gave it, and any refusal or missed dose.
Every direct-care staff member completes pre-service training in first aid, CPR, infection control, dementia care, abuse and neglect reporting, medication administration and resident rights before any unsupervised contact with a resident. Those working in the memory care environment complete six hours of dementia-specific training first.
The house itself is being fitted for this: grab bars in every bathroom, handrails through the hallways, non-slip flooring in resident areas, smoke alarms, and an emergency call button in every bedroom and bathroom.
The responsible licensed clinician will coordinate care planning with each resident's physician, specialists and family. Significant emergencies are communicated to families within four hours, and complaints run on a clock: acknowledged within 24 hours, investigated within five business days, answered in writing within ten.

Not yet
We are not open.
The licence is pending. We are working toward the first quarter of 2027, and that is a target rather than a promise.
Exactly where this stands
Company and zoning are complete: Sasa Consulting Partners LLC is registered with the Virginia SCC, and Fairfax County has issued Use Determination INTOAB-2026-00012, permitting up to seven residents. We will operate at six.
The health department sanitation inspection has passed, reference HCORE-2026-00141. The application package — disclosure statement, rules and procedures manual, organisational chart, staffing sheet, two-week menu and monthly activity schedule — is drafted and ready to file.
Outstanding: the building work and its inspections, the appointment of a licensed Administrator, contracts with a physician and pharmacy, background checks and references, and the building evaluation. The opening depends on the licence being granted, which is not ours to schedule.
We would rather tell you this than let you find it out later. If a home is vague with you about its licence, that is information too.
