Serena Benson
I am writing a new review from yesterday. I was not impressed with the physical facility and nervous. 24 hours later I feel so much better. The staff and director have made me feel good about leaving mom here. The facility should be updated for staff and patients. It’s in a million dollar neighborhood so …. Having said that what matters is her care and so far I am very impressed. Thank you ALL STAFF. GRATEFUL FOR YOUR CARE

I would like to thank the George Washington Health and Rehab in Alexandria, VA staff for the excellent care they provided for my husband. The entire staff was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout his stay. I would like to especially thank Ms. Janet Palmer-Davies of the Social Services Department who help me to understand my husband's rights and for making sure that he received the home health equipment and other services he needed to make his transition back home as smooth as possible.
