Blue Ridge Christian Homes was inspected 8 times between March 23, 2021 and May 20, 2026 by the Virginia Department of Social Services. 3 of those visits ended with violations cited and 5 with none. Across that history VDSS cited 8 violations under 5 distinct standards.
A violation is a licensing standard - a rule in the Virginia Administrative Code - that the inspector found the facility was not meeting. Each is shown with the evidence the inspector recorded and, where VDSS publishes it, the facility's own plan of correction.
VDSS publishes inspections on a rolling window. 6 of these 8 are still on the state's site; the other 2 have since dropped off it and are reproduced from Assisted Living Magazine's archive of the original VDSS reports.
