Emily Green Shores is a faith-based senior assisted living facility owned by the Portsmouth Baptist Association and located in Portsmouth, Virginia. Our facility rests on the Elizabeth River waterfront offering beautiful sunset views from our spacious sunroom facing the water. Emily Green Shores is much like home; a comfortable family setting where you can read a book in the living room, enjoy watching the boats on the waterfront from the porch, play cards after supper with your neighbors, and know that each day will be filled with caring hands and friendly, familiar faces.
Our assisted living residency is an ambulatory-only facility meaning our residents have the means to be able to move about on their own (non-wheelchair bound) and reasonably facilitate their own activities of daily living.
Our business philosophy is quite simple. We are in the business of caring for and fulfilling the needs of our residents. We want our residents and our employees to feel that they are appreciated.
Our goal is to equip the staff members of our facility with the necessary tools to provide each resident with an environment that is clean, secure and family-oriented.
Our company has a strong commitment to maintaining a good quality of life and a high standard of care for each resident. This is accomplished with the assistance of our trusted and experienced staff.
We have in place a uniform and comprehensive set of guidelines that ensure that the facility complies with the Department of Social Services standards and regulations.
This company promotes an open door policy toward employees, residents, families, guardians, and senior service agencies to encourage sincere dialogue for the enhancement of our facility.
