When you step inside MediLodge of Richmond, you’ll know you’re in a special place. Describing the building has to include how the building “feels.” The best description we can come up with is that it’s like your grandparents’ house and a small town rolled into one. It’s friendly. People sit and visit. Staff members look you in the eye, smile, and say “hello.” Homemade artwork—created by residents and local schoolchildren—hangs on the walls. People are chatting, laughing, holding hands, listening to each other, and doing all sorts of interesting things. It’s some place you’ll want to see for yourself.

To give you a glimpse of what you might find on any given day, here are some of the activities that we enjoy:


Residents have a lifetime of collecting treasures-things like the crafts you made in 5th grade art class, homemade ornaments, and family traditions. Holidays mean something different to each person, and we encourage them to share by bringing in their favorite things, especially at special times of the year. With all these different decorations, it might look like a hodge-podge to someone else, but to our residents, it looks and feels more like home.


Each year, we sponsor a craft show that draws local vendors who offer their creations to our residents and members of the community. It has become such a popular event that people line up outside our doors, waiting to get in, even before we "open for business." Our residents have a ball, selling homemade goodies, making crafts, buying holiday gifts, and enjoying the crowds. It's an event that none of our residents or their families want to miss!


Sweet potato casserole, bread and butter pickles, apple crisp, gingersnaps, homemade bread... homey, comfort foods that recollect life in small town America are what our residents fed their families and shared at their church suppers. Our Resident Dining Council collected their recipes—and a lot of their wisdom-to create a cookbook. It's not gourmet, but you will love the delicious recipes you will find inside. Ask us for a copy—if you love to cook, there are some real goodies to try! And soon, you'll be able to get our second edition. don't miss it!


Everyone needs a little change of scenery once in a while. Our residents love to “go to town” for shopping, dining, and little errands. They also like going to the movies, having picnics, and checking out the local color at special events like the Goodells 4-H Fair.

Want to learn more about what we do? Ask the Activities Director for a copy of the monthly calendar. Family members and friends are always welcome to come and participate in any of our activities—your family member would love to see you and we would, too. You'll also want to pick up a copy of our Resident-created newsletter. In it you'll find stories about the people who live here, a recipe, games, and friendly notes from our staff. You won't want to miss it!
