Review for Regent of Newport News

Staff was very good and more than helpful. Took a week before they had all her drugs in spite of being assured that they were all there. After that just fine. The facility was really fine. Always clean etc.

This is my overall general feedback about the facility and staff, shared with the intention of helping other families

The Regent of Newport News is a former hotel that has been newly renovated into an assisted living facility—and the transformation is exceptional. It bears no resemblance to the typical, often outdated image of a senior living facility. Regent of NN is stylish yet contemporary, both on the exterior and in its welcoming lounge and gathering areas. The resident rooms are thoughtfully designed with practicality and comfort in mind, well-suited for senior living. The staff is friendly and courteous, creating a warm and respectful environment. However, their use of technology—particularly for forwarding, tracking, and managing important paperwork—could benefit from significant improvements to meet modern standards. That said, the absence of the kinds of complaints we experienced at my mother’s previous facility suggests that Regent is meeting, if not exceeding, expectations when it comes to being a caring, proactive, and responsible assisted living provider.

Regent of Newport News assisted living is AMAZING!

Regent of Newport News looks magnificent from the outside, but it is literally jaw-dropping upon entering the door.  The entire place is so elegant, spacious, and clean like a very fancy hotel, and the decor and antiques are spectacular.  However, allowing for only 49 residents, it is not so vast that anyone becomes just a number, so each resident continues to get appropriate personalized treatment and care. Far beyond the wonderfully refined appearance and atmosphere at Regent of Newport News is the most amazing part - the staff.  No matter what the title and general expected duties, each staff member dedicates to actually provide hospitality in addition to proper care to the residents.  They actually go out of their way to be quite thorough, considerate, helpful, personable, professional, etc. and have excellent experience and judgment to handle various situations.  All of this extends to the families as well (soon the staff are like family.)  We are so grateful - a dream come true!
