Lennox Assisted Living sits at 210 South Lincoln Street in Lennox, South Dakota, and offers a warm, home-like place for up to 42 seniors, and the community's family ownership shows in how they try to give comfort, companionship, and care that fits each person's needs, and you see folks there living in semi-private or one-bedroom apartments, some with kitchenettes, furnished rooms, telephones, cable TV, and Wi-Fi so there's no trouble staying in touch or relaxing in your own space, and they include meals-three homecooked ones each day plus snacks-served in the shared dining room, always keeping in mind folks with diabetes, allergies, or special diets, and there's always a chat around the table, which can feel nice. They have a bunch of places for people to gather, like the living rooms, the arts room, walking paths, gardens, and a barber and beauty shop, and you can take in a movie night, join a resident-run activity, or pick from daily events and devotional times, and transportation's arranged if you have a doctor's appointment or need to get out for an errand.
Care at Lennox Assisted Living covers basics and more: 24-hour supervision with a call system, help with things like bathing, dressing, transfers, medication, and setting up appointments with health care providers, and if someone needs a therapeutic diet, non-ambulatory care, help with oxygen, or memory support, they're able to help because they have nurses (RN's and LPN's) along with support staff, and the place is licensed by South Dakota to care for folks with many kinds of needs, even those on hospice or who can't move on their own. They have move-in help to make settling easier, regular housekeeping, linen, and laundry-including dry cleaning if you want it-and residents get all-day dining so you never really have to worry about set meal schedules unless you want to.
Security is handled with nurse call systems, door alarms, sprinklers, intercoms, and CCTV, which helps loved ones feel some peace of mind, and the building keeps things accessible so anyone with physical limitations is supported, and there's support for those who need a little more help but still want a sense of independence. The community works with Medicaid Waiver and private pay, which helps give more families a chance to afford it, and everything's all-inclusive so fees aren't a guessing game. Residents get both indoor and outdoor spaces for fresh air or gatherings, and staff speak English.
Lennox Assisted Living keeps the focus on helping seniors have status, dignity, and choice while giving a good balance of support and privacy without fuss, and you can find daily activities put together by both the staff and the residents themselves, so there's always something to do if you want company, and if you ever need short-term or respite care, they're set up for that too, and in the end, it's a simple, caring place where you can get a little help and still hang on to your own way of life as much as you can.
