New Senior Residential Facilities in Northern Virginia
In the search for a senior residential facility in the Washington DC metro area, waiting lists are all-too common. In fact, some of the more popular facilities may not have room availability for several months to a year. Others request a sizeable down payment just to get onto their waitlist. So, we were pleased to find several brand new residential care facilities opening soon in northern Virginia.
