About Summit Square

+
Summit Square, located at 501 Oak Avenue in Waynesboro, Virginia, is a nonprofit skilled nursing community serving seniors in the Shenandoah Valley with a care philosophy grounded in dignity, compassion, and community accountability. As a nonprofit corporation, Summit Square reinvests its resources directly into resident care, staffing, and facility quality — a structural commitment that sets it apart and gives families confidence that their loved one's well-being, rather than shareholder return, drives every decision. Waynesboro is a city of real character, built at the confluence of the South River and the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains. At Rockfish Gap, just minutes from Oak Avenue, Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway begin their famous mountain routes — among the most scenic drives in the eastern United States. Shenandoah National Park is accessible from this same junction, offering waterfalls, wildlife, and mountain vistas that make Waynesboro an enviable home base for seniors who love the natural world and for families who treasure visiting in a beautiful setting. Augusta Health, the regional full-service hospital and medical center, is located a few miles west in Fishersville, providing Summit Square residents with readily accessible acute and specialist care whenever needed. Downtown Waynesboro has been steadily revitalized, with local restaurants, the Wayne Theatre performing arts venue, the P. Buckley Moss Museum, and the South River greenway trail adding quality-of-life amenities that benefit residents' families during visits. The Waynesboro Farmer's Market and community events throughout the year reflect a city invested in its identity and in its people. Summit Square's nonprofit status means the organization is deeply embedded in the Waynesboro community — guided by a board accountable to local values, not distant investors. Skilled nursing care here encompasses 24-hour licensed nursing, individualized care planning, therapy services, restorative programs, and a residential environment designed to feel like home. For Waynesboro-area families seeking a trusted, mission-driven option for skilled nursing care, Summit Square offers both the clinical expertise and the community character that make a genuine difference in residents' lives.
