Brookdale Midlothian was inspected 14 times between January 21, 2021 and January 14, 2026 by the Virginia Department of Social Services. 6 of those visits ended with violations cited and 8 with none. Across that history VDSS cited 24 violations under 18 distinct standards. 8 inspections were prompted by a complaint.
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. 13 of these 14 are still on the state's site; the other 1 has since dropped off it and is reproduced from Assisted Living Magazine's archive of the original VDSS reports.

- The ISP dated 09/20/2023 for Resident #1 indicated the following need: “Services to be Provided, IADL: Meal Prep: Resident needs assistance with meal preparation. Need identified: 09/20/2023.” The facility did not provide documentation to confirm that the resident was provided with thin liquids or that food was cut for the resident.
- The ISP for Resident #1 dated September 20, 2023, was not updated to address the following needs as detailed in Hospice Care Plans dated March 6, 2024, March 20,2024, and May 1, 2024. Resident #1 had decreased appetite/meal refusal (identified March 6, 2024). unintelligible speech (identified March 20,2024), and contractures to the right hand and lower extremities (identified May 1, 2024).
- During an inspection conducted on June 4, 2025, review of Resident #1’s record confirms Resident #1 resides in the memory care unit of the facility. The resident’s 9/20/2023 ISP states Resident #1 has a pull cord in her room but due to a cognitive impairment she may not remember to use it. The goal is listed as “Staff are to do frequent rounds throughout the day and 2-hour safety rounds when asleep in bed”. The frequency of rounds made by staff throughout the day is not defined. The facility failed to document when rounds were made, the name of the resident, the date and time of the rounds, and the staff member who made the rounds. This documentation is to be retained for two years. Evidence: The goal for resident #1’s Individual Service Plan (ISP) dated 09/20/2023 reads, “staff are to do frequent rounds throughout the day and 2-hour safety rounds when in bed.” The goal does not specify the date and time of rounds, or the staff member who made the rounds.
