#1 in Lexington, SC

Residents and their families say:

This community is frequently praised for its clean environment, caring and attentive staff, welcoming atmosphere, and engaging activities, making it a valued choice for assisted living. Many reviewers highlighted the warmth and professionalism of the community’s personnel, emphasizing their dedication to ensuring residents feel comfortable, valued, and part of a family. The various activities available, such as playing bells, singing, games, costume parties, arts and crafts, and exercise classes were particularly appreciated for keeping residents engaged and active. This community's provision of high-quality care, personalized attention, and the ability to maintain a vibrant social life while receiving the necessary medical and daily living support is consistently noted.

However, some areas for improvement were mentioned across multiple reviews, including concerns about the cleanliness of individual apartments and the quality of the meals provided, with a specific reference to a lack of fresh fruits and vegetables and sometimes overcooked food. Staff turnover and consistency, particularly regarding night staff and medication administration, were also points of criticism, alongside an instance of an abrupt approach by a new head nurse concerning residents' personal items. Despite these concerns, the overall sentiment toward the community remains positive, with many reviewers expressing deep satisfaction and gratitude for the compassionate care and attention their family members receive. This suggests that while there are areas that could be enhanced, the positives significantly outweigh the negatives for most residents and their families.
