Our Mission
At Scott Hill, we care about the comfort and happiness of every resident. Our purpose is to provide a comfortable, independent living community for seniors (those 62-years-old or greater), or those applying for an apartment specifically constructed to be accessible to individuals with physical disabilities. Unlike an assisted living or nursing home, Scott Hill does not provide resident care.
Our community is designed to give individuals access to affordable, quality apartments with access to a variety of services, amenities, and active lifestyle opportunities. Our safe, maintenance-free building is nestled in the scenic Alleghany Highlands, conveniently located just minutes from Interstate 64.
Scott Hill is operated by Coordinated Services Management, Inc., with missional oversight provided by a local, nonprofit Board of Directors.
Scott Hill does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, elderliness, familial status, or handicap in the admission or access to, and/or treatment and employment in, its federally assisted programs and activities. Occupancy is open to all persons who meet the community’s eligibility criteria, regardless of the aforementioned federal and state statutorily protected classes.

Our History
In the late 1800s, the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company established a hospital on the current site of Scott Hill to service its employees who worked on the railway line stretching from Chicago to Newport News.
A modern regional hospital community for its time, the Chesapeake and Ohio Hospital became an important referral center for the critically ill of southwestern rural Virginia and neighboring West Virginia. Some years later, these original hospital structures were replaced by newer and more modern facilities.
After the number of employees being served by the Chesapeake and Ohio Hospital dwindled to less than ten percent in 1970, the Railway Company donated all of the hospital facilities, including the personal property, to the community. This resulted in an expansion of the availability of services to include the local residents of Clifton Forge and Alleghany County.
The non-profit community board that was formed to operate the property eventually became the owner of the new Alleghany Regional Hospital. Anxious to provide service to the community, the non-profit community board sold the old hospital to Scott Hill in order to provide services to the growing number of elderly within the community.
Rent at Scott Hill is based on your individual income to make it affordable for everyone. Learn more about this affordable lifestyle.
