A Legacy of Care
Dogwood Village of Orange County has proudly served older adults in Orange County, Virginia, since 1967, opening its county-owned nursing home in 1970. Over the years, it has expanded to include assisted living, skilled nursing, and rehabilitation services to meet the community’s changing needs. Key milestones include the establishment of the Dogwood Village Foundation in 2005, the opening of a new Senior Living building in 2007, and continued growth of its skilled nursing services. Today, Dogwood Village offers a full continuum of care for up to 164 health and rehabilitation residents and 80 assisted living residents, continuing its longstanding commitment to the community.
