Welcome!

Here at D. Scott Hudgens Center for Skilled Nursing, we offer a warm and nurturing atmosphere where your loved one can thrive and enjoy a wonderful quality of life. Our highly skilled staff has been specifically trained to meet the needs of adults with developmental disabilities who may also be experiencing the effects of aging such as dementia, lack of mobility, medication monitoring, and loss of skills.

Our residents are encouraged to be as independent as they are able and to participate in activities that are of interest to them. In addition to programs and activities that are provided at the center, residents may also go on off campus outings and take part in the programs offered at the Patricia M. Brown Center for Programs, if they are appropriate.

We strive to make D. Scott Hudgens as much like home as possible. We work together as a team to meet the unique clinical and emotional needs or our residents. Special things are happening every day, from short walks around the campus to a visit with the horses, we are building trusting relationships.

I welcome you to come and visit us and the Annandale Village campus. We are very proud of our facility and the care that we provide for our very special community.

Sincerely,

Dayna Cramer, Administrator
