respite Support

At The View Alexandria, respite support means attentive care in a safe, comfortable setting—delivered with compassion, dignity and respect.

Dedicated care for short term respite needs

Respite care offers daily support and personal assistance for those with chronic conditions or advanced needs. It combines dedicated attention with a safe, comfortable environment that prioritizes dignity and quality of life.


At The View Alexandria, we offer respite stays in a close-knit, home-like setting. Residents benefit from attentive staff, access to on-site therapy, tailored dining and meaningful engagement, while families remain closely connected through open communication and visits.

Care Initiatives

Making a difference, one groundbreaking program at a time

At The View Alexandria, we offer unique programs that extend beyond standard care to strengthen cognitive, emotional and social well-being. These innovation programs are made possible thanks to the generosity of donors to the Goodwin Living Foundation.

StrongerMemory

Simple daily exercises proven to help improve memory and slow cognitive decline. This brain health program is available to all residents.

Music Therapy

Goodwin Living uses the power of music—from group singing to innovative therapies like Crdl®, an instrument that transforms touch into sound—to spark joy, connection and engagement for residents experiencing cognitive change.

Animal Therapy

From equine-assisted learning to dog visits, our animal therapy programs provide comfort, connection and joy for residents across all levels of living.

Planning with peace of mind

At The View Alexandria, respite care is offered through a simple rental model with month-to-month leasing. There are no large entrance fees or long-term contracts—just clear pricing and the reassurance that care is always available when it’s needed most.

Room rates for respite care start at $350 per day/$10,500 per month, which includes housing, daily meals, personal care and access to our dedicated team around the clock. Every resident benefits from an individualized care plan, ensuring support is tailored with compassion and respect.

What residents are saying

  • “What I like most about The View Alexandria is that it is large enough to have so many activities though small enough that you really get to know people.”
