THE LEXINGTON ASSISTED LIVING CENTER

When I was told my mom couldn’t live alone anymore and moving her in wasn’t an option, we needed a soft place to land. I’m so glad we found The Lexington. What I wanted for my mom was to be safe, her needs met, and cared for. This was met in every way. Visiting my mom at least 2 times a week allowed me to get to know several of the staff and residents. Each staff member I met and got to know were very kind and open to any conversations concerning my mom’s care. Communication with staff was welcome. The Lexington also helped my mom’s integration into her new family easier by inviting her to attend the varies people and activities they thought she might enjoy. There are many activities offered with enough variety to encourage participation. My mom’s favorite activities were the exercise class, Bible devotional time, walks in the beautiful courtyard, and the live music that was offered weekly, I think. I enjoyed the homey, family atmosphere so much that I offered to volunteer to help with arts and crafts twice a month. Now that my mom has transitioned into memory care, I still volunteer because I love the people I interact with so much! Thanks, Lexington staff, for being a second family for my mom!

Great place! Very homey and residents are well cared for.

In My Mothers Words: Since my move to the Lexington in Aug. of 23 "I am Happy"with my surroundings! "I am well taken care of by the staff!" The food is GOOD and MY HOME is clean! "I FEEL SAFE!" Those words spoken fron My nearly 95 Yr. old Mother

It is not the same as it was years ago. Under-paid and understaffed and many personal items are taken from residents' rooms. There is a huge turnaround between employees and residents. Many staff members spend most of their time on their phones or shopping on Amazon. The facility is more concerned with $ to fill the rooms rather than the proper care these residents need in a nursing home. Many years ago, I would have put a family member there. Now, I would go elsewhere.

I lived at the Lexington for a year and half until out of the blue the director came to my room and told me I had one day to move out. The reason she told me that I was overheard calling the staff babes when talking to four gentlemen at our dinner table who were all hard of hearing and I had to speak loud.i had never had a complaint before and I and my family were shocked but I was told this happens all the time when your on Medicaid by others who were kicked out of the Lexington. One of the night managers their was constantly trying to steal my antidepressants also would drink alcohol from my room. I also had food, clothing missing from my room.The food there was average cold sandwiches are often served for supper and have one slice of meat. My family was constantly bringing me food because of such small portions were were servedThey have a lot of turnover of staff who mostly complain about low wages and not enough working hours. I bought a twenty thousand dollar power chair to shop with and they told me I couldn't leave the grounds and if I did I would be removed for not falling the rules. Their van cannot carry people in wheelchairs which leaves to the family to take your loved one to the Dr.They like the residents just to sit in their rooms and watch TV and once your loved starts to need lots of assistance they kick them out. If you love your love one there are far better places than the Lexington I would not recommend this place to anyone... Billy
