Care options

For those experiencing a change in health status due to illness, surgery or progression of a chronic condition, Goodwin Home Health provides the health care you need in the comforts of your home. Medicare-certified and requiring a doctor’s order, our services range from skilled nursing to therapy to social work to light care assistance with daily tasks. We also offer specialized services, including LSVT BIG/LOUD therapy for those with Parkinson’s disease.

We offer comprehensive end-of-life, Medicare-certified hospice and palliative care services to individuals 18+. As a not-for-profit organization, our efforts are entirely focused on those we serve, delivering compassionate care in your private home as well as in other senior living communities and healthcare facilities throughout Northern Virginia.

Hospice services include pain management and symptom control, personal care, social work services, counseling and spiritual support, and 24/7 on-call nursing support. Additionally, Goodwin Hospice offers friendly visitor volunteers, pet companionship, end-of-life doulas, massage therapy and visits from Threshold Choir singers.

Goodwin Living Health offers a range of therapy services, including physical, occupational and speech therapy, for older adults across Northern Virginia. Goodwin Home Health provides rehabilitation services in the comfort of your home, while Goodwin Rehabilitation provides those same services in our state-of-the-art health centers on our senior living campuses.

Whether you need outpatient or inpatient services, you’ll receive world-class support from our experienced and skilled team of licensed therapists, who are also able to provide specialized services, including LSVT BIG/LOUD for Parkinson’s disease.

With our skilled and passionate team of certified nursing assistants and personal care aides, Goodwin Home Care provides thoughtful, personalized support to help you live well at home—from daily care like bathing, dressing and toileting to light housekeeping to companionship and appointment escorts. This service is not covered by health insurance, though some long-term care insurance policies might help pay for in-home personal care.

Our breakthrough StrongerMemory program is at the heart of our efforts to improve the health of our brains. Goodwin Living developed StrongerMemory as an evidence-based, accessible intervention to help older adults strengthen their cognitive abilities. It is now widely used in community centers, senior living facilities and clinical settings to support individuals with aging-related memory concerns. StrongerMemory enhances brain health, emotional well-being and social engagement, and we’ve got the research to prove it.

With simple exercises, StrongerMemory stimulates the part of the brain that helps retrieve memories. It’s also effective, easy to use and fun.

The Thrive Day program at Goodwin Living is designed for individuals living with early to mid-stage dementia who are looking to engage with others and promote positive brain health. This original program promotes engagement, independence and dignity. 

Lastly, our Memory Support neighborhoods in our senior living campuses go beyond traditional memory care—they are intentional, inclusive communities built on a foundation of respect, connection and purpose.

When you’re aging at home, you might benefit from having an aging expert alongside you to help navigate your aging journey. Our unique aging-in-place program can help you plan ahead and manage the care you need so you can maintain independence and live in the familiar comfort of your own home.
