Discovery Village At Southlake offers an Independent Living setting that is supported by an unusually broad menu of on-site clinical resources. Residents who manage chronic conditions such as diabetes can schedule regular visits with nurses, podiatrists, dentists, physical, occupational, and speech therapists without leaving the campus. Short-term respite stays are accepted, and hospice coordination is available when needed. Although the community itself is designated for Independent Living, its medical infrastructure also supports assisted-living services, ambulatory care, medication management, incontinence care, and memory-care consultations, giving residents a safety net should health needs change.
Day-to-day support is overseen by a staff that undergoes background checks and is led by an activity director who coordinates wellness programming. Help with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting is offered on a self-care basis, and transfer assistance is available for residents who use walkers or wheelchairs. Scheduled physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions can be arranged in the on-site therapy spaces, and nurses monitor care plans to ensure continuity between outside physicians and community services. Security protocols are in place 24/7, and regular wellness checks help residents maintain their independent lifestyle with confidence.
Apartments are designed for privacy and convenience, featuring options such as private bathrooms, kitchenettes, independent temperature controls, cable hookups, and housekeeping services; however, not every unit includes every feature, so it is best to confirm availability during a tour. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are provided for all Independent Living residents, and additional linen service can be added as needed.
Dining is centered on a set menu that emphasizes balanced nutrition, with snacks available throughout the day for residents who prefer flexible mealtimes. Meals are prepared on-site, and staff can accommodate most physician-directed dietary modifications, including diabetic-friendly choices. Independent Living residents enjoy restaurant-style seating that encourages social interaction while allowing staff to monitor nutritional intake discreetly.
Residents have access to a full slate of amenities, including resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, exercise room, wellness center, communal gardens, on-site religious services, an activity room, café, media room, lakeview terrace, business center, concierge desk, library, private patios, scenic walking trails, an indoor heated pool, and scheduled transportation for errands and appointments. Internet access is available community-wide, and housekeeping, linen, and personal laundry services are included. Pets are allowed; it's a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
