Thank you to all that helped with our Mother- Marion F. She enjoyed her time at the Ballentine. A special Thank You to Miss Geraldine White from our family. She sung to our Mother when she needed it the most. We appreciate your kindness more than words can express.

Where to start? The Ballentine is the Taj Mahal of Norfolk. What a great facility. Clean, quiet but more importantly the staff. What a wonderful, friendly group of people. I met so many people but these few were so helpful. Pat Pierce made me feel like I was at home. Such a nice lady. Alex Torres was so helpful in getting my Wife's belongings into her new home. Stephen Boyd explained everything to me,took his time. Than there was CAROLYN HEWLETT. What an outstanding individual. She was so helpful through this entire process. We were on the phone 25t times. She was in constant contact with hospital case manager. Carolyn even brought paperwork to my house. I could not have asked for a more caring person. Her dedication to The Ballentine helped me to make the right decision for my Wife. (Thanks Carolyn Hewlett) A loving, caring facility that I know will give Mary the best. This has not been an easy decision but I have to provide what is best for my Wife. She deserves the best-THE BALLENTINE! Thank you all so much! Greg Schwarga

I'm very sad about the changes I'm seeing at the Ballantine. My sister was first transferred there by her husband when the other nursing home that she was in tried to feed her shrimp (that she is deathly allergic to!) not once but twice. The quality of the food and the care by the staff have both decreased, while the price has increased. Some of my favorite staff members havve left, & I'm afraid that's because of the change in ownership. I feel sorry for others who will not be able to get good care, as well as those who are still there but not getting the care they deserve.

I absolutely love this facility! My dad is very happy there, the staff has been incredibly accommodating. Stephen and Cristy welcomed my dad with so much love and care. The employees and nursing staff are very attentive. I'm so glad I chose them for daddy. Fully recommend!
