Brookdale Lexington stands as a one-story senior living community where folks can pick from studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom apartments, many of which come with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and either furnished or unfurnished choices so residents can make their space feel a little more like home, and every apartment has closet space, individual climate controls, emergency call systems, telephone hookups, Wi-Fi, and cable or satellite TV if that's something you want, and you'll find common and private dining rooms where three meals are served daily with snacks on hand and options for private dining with family or friends. The grounds have shaded courtyards, patios, gardens for those who enjoy getting their hands in the dirt, and even a hot tub spa, so folks have space to relax or get outside, and it's all managed by on-site staff who handle housekeeping and maintenance while still leaving people with the freedom to join in on games, arts and crafts, music, exercise classes, tech activities, or outings, since there's always something happening from chair fitness to yoga, resident meetings, religious gatherings, and group outings with transportation provided for shopping or appointments.
Pets are welcome here, and so are guests, and there's parking for both residents and visitors, so people don't need to worry when family drops by with the dog in tow, and you can count on a beauty and barber shop, library, laundry, and entertainment areas right in the building. Safety's a big focus, with emergency response systems, strict protocols, trained staff 24 hours a day, and support for mobility or wheelchairs, since the building's designed to be easy for everyone to get around, even if walking is tough. Health care covers a lot of ground, with support for diabetes, dementia, memory care, hospice, respite care, and even in-home care, plus nurses on site and help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, toileting, oral care, medication, meal reminders, and incontinence help, and there are support groups and therapy options too, such as massage, occupational, speech, and pet therapy.
People who need Alzheimer's and dementia care can join the secured memory care program in a protected area with special activities to help with mental engagement, and all services are shaped to the needs of each person after a personalized assessment, so the help's there without pushing folks to lose independence if they don't need to. Staff are trained in all sorts of issues, from chronic illness and mobility to diet, rights, safety, and emotional well-being, so residents can get assistance with everything from financial planning to medical appointments. Residents pay using private pay, Medicaid, insurance, or long-term care insurance, and with scheduled tours, anyone's able to learn more about day-to-day life before deciding. The community's won a Best of Senior Living Award and keeps a focus on wellness, social connection, and support, never losing sight of helping people age in place, keep friendships, and handle changing needs with care and respect.
