HERITAGE HALL-LEESBURG
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Heritage Hall-Leesburg has received an impressive Trust Grade of A, indicating that it is considered excellent and highly recommended for families seeking care. It ranks #18 out of 285 facilities in Virginia, placing it in the top half of the state, and is the best option among 5 facilities in Loudoun County. The facility's trend is improving, with the number of issues noted decreasing from 5 in 2022 to 4 in 2025. Staffing is a relative strength, as it has a 3 out of 5 star rating and a turnover rate of 32%, which is lower than the state average of 48%. Notably, there have been no fines, suggesting strong compliance with regulations. However, there are some concerns to consider. The facility has been cited for issues such as failing to administer pain medication as needed for one resident and not keeping call bells within reach for some residents, which could hinder their ability to request assistance. Additionally, a review found food storage practices lacking, with opened food items not being properly sealed, which raises sanitation concerns. While there are strengths in staffing and overall care quality, families should weigh these weaknesses when making their decision.
