Wayland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Nestled in the heart of Southside Virginia, Wayland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center provides compassionate skilled nursing and rehabilitation services to residents of Keysville and the surrounding Charlotte County region. Located along the Lunenburg Highway, the center sits within a peaceful, rural setting that reflects the quiet charm of this historic corner of Virginia — far from the noise of urban life yet close to the resources families and residents need. Wayland is operated by Principle Long Term Care, an experienced management company with a demonstrated commitment to delivering high-quality, person-centered care. Their clinical teams focus on individualized care planning, meaningful daily engagement, and smooth transitions from hospital to home for short-term rehabilitation guests. For families in Charlotte, Lunenburg, and Mecklenburg Counties, Wayland offers a trusted local option without requiring loved ones to travel far from their communities. The Keysville area retains a close-knit, small-town character — neighbors know one another, and the slower pace of life supports a sense of calm that can be especially valuable during recovery or long-term care. The nearest full-service hospital, Centra Southside Community Hospital in Farmville (approximately 35 miles north on Route 15), provides acute care backup and specialist services. VCU Health Community Memorial Hospital in South Hill is another regional resource accessible to families. Locally, residents and families appreciate the proximity to Keysville's modest commercial corridor along Main Street, where everyday needs can be met close to home. Outdoor enthusiasts and visiting families will find the surrounding landscape restorative — Staunton River State Park, just to the west in Halifax County, offers riverfront trails and picnic areas along the Staunton River. Buggs Island Lake (John H. Kerr Reservoir) to the south draws fishermen and nature lovers from across the region. The rolling farmland and hardwood forests of Charlotte County give the area a timeless, unhurried character that many seniors find deeply comforting. Whether your loved one is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or requires ongoing skilled nursing support, Wayland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center offers experienced care within a community that feels like home.
