At The Willows at Hamburg in Lexington, residents may enter either assisted living or memory care, depending on the level of supervision and structure they need. The community also accepts respite stays, giving caregivers a short break while residents receive help with bathing, dressing, and medication management. In-house physical therapy is available, so those recovering from surgery or illness can continue their exercises without leaving the building.
The medical program is anchored by 24-hour skilled nursing care, supported by licensed nurses who use an electronic medication administration record for accurate dosing. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy are offered both on an outpatient basis and within daily schedules, and independent living residents can access these services as needed. A Care Innovations QuietCare system monitors activity patterns for added safety, especially in memory care, and resident or family counseling sessions help everyone understand care plans and disease progression.
Apartments are built for accessibility and include housekeeping, with some layouts opening to outdoor seating areas and an enclosed garden. Not every residence includes every feature, so it is best to confirm specific details during a visit.
Meals are prepared on site and served three times a day, with staff able to accommodate most physician-ordered or therapeutic diets. Assistance with eating is available for anyone who has strength or coordination challenges.
Residents can spend time in the library and computer lounge, join programs in the activity center, or take part in clubs and community groups organized by the life-enrichment team.
