Lockwood of Burton offers Independent Living for residents who do not require memory care support but may benefit from a community setting with optional assistance. Staff can help with bathing, dressing, toileting, and eating for those who need a hand while still managing most activities on their own. Oxygen therapy can be accommodated, and walker or wheelchair transfers are available, allowing residents with mobility devices to move safely around the community.
Daily oversight is reinforced by 24-hour staffing, background-checked team members, and an awake night shift. A pull-cord alert system links apartments directly to staff, and an on-site activity director plans structured programs throughout the week. Visiting podiatry services reduce the need for off-site appointments, and security personnel remain on-site around the clock to monitor entrances and common areas.
Residences range in size and layout, and not every unit includes all available features. Some apartments have private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, and cable connections; residents can paint or decorate their spaces to reflect personal style. Regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the monthly package, so basic chores are handled by staff.
Dining focuses on flexibility. The culinary team offers a rotating set menu, an on-order option at mealtimes, and snacks throughout the day. Individuals who prefer privacy can request in-room dining or reserve the private dining room for guests, and special diet modifications are prepared as ordered by physicians or dietitians. Independent Living residents may elect medication-management monitoring, and their plan already includes weekly housekeeping, laundry, and a monthly meal plan that covers the majority of daily meals.
Amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, an exercise room, a barber and beauty salon, a movie room, a wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, a library, special-interest clubs, concierge assistance, and scheduled transportation for errands and appointments. On-site religious services are also held for those who wish to attend. Pets are allowed in designated areas; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
