Does one have to be Jewish to live in Beth Sholom Village?
No. Our residents are drawn from the community and beyond.
Our residents observe their own faiths with frequent visits from clergy. However,
our kitchen is strictly kosher, and we observe Jewish traditions and customs.
Members of our staff speak many languages, including Spanish, Yiddish and
Russian and may be called upon to act as interpreters.

two. Does Beth Sholom Village take patients for post-hospital care and rehab?

occupational and speech therapists for rehabilitation after a hospitalization.

Speak with our Social Services Department or the discharge planners in the
hospital and express your interest in The Home at Beth Sholom Village.
Will someone from Beth Sholom village speak
to an organization?
Yes. Please contact the Director of Community Relations
at (757) 420-2512.
Why does Beth Sholom Village need volunteers and how can I get involved?
Volunteering is a mitzvah, a good deed. Participating in
an activity, like bingo or sing along, doing office work, staffing the gift
shop, giving manicures, reading or just visiting with residents perpetuates
a connection between the elderly and the community. It allows our staff to
concentrate on resident care. For more information call our Community Relations
Director at (757) 420-2512.
Who operates The Village?
Beth Sholom Village is a nonprofit corporation, with a
Board of Directors made up of volunteer lay and professional community people.
Beth Sholom Village elects community members to serve on its Board, which
oversees the policy direction of The Home and assists with raising funds.
Professionally, the Executive Vice President, a licensed Nursing Home Administrator,
manages the facility. For more information, please call
or write the Executive Vice President at 6401 Auburn Drive, Virginia Beach,
Virginia 23464
