Lighthouse Pointe in Chesapeake offers an independent living setting designed for residents who want to maintain control of their daily routines while having access to supportive staff. The community’s independent living model provides scheduled transportation, routine wellness checks, and 24-hour staff availability so that residents can remain self-reliant without compromising safety.
On-site clinical resources reinforce that independence with focused medical oversight. Medication management is available to help residents keep prescriptions organized and administered correctly. Physical and occupational therapists conduct sessions in the community to address mobility, strength, and daily-living skills, while a speech therapist is on call for communication or swallowing concerns. Staff members monitor progress, update individualized wellness plans, and coordinate with outside physicians when additional care is required.
Apartments are available in multiple layouts and may include balconies, patios, or decks for outdoor access. Units are air-conditioned and wired for high-speed internet and cable, with select floor plans offering kitchenettes and wheelchair-accessible showers. Common spaces such as indoor lounges, a computer or media center, and outdoor areas give residents additional room to socialize. Not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so prospective residents should review the specific apartment they are considering.
Dining is handled by a professional chef who prepares three meals a day and serves them in a restaurant-style dining room. Residents can invite guests for meals, and special events such as barbecues and picnics are scheduled in the activity center or outdoor spaces. Alternative menu choices are available for dietary needs, and snacks are provided throughout the day.
Amenities support an active lifestyle. A library and computer lounge, game room, and fitness programs give residents daily options on site, while planned day trips, social outings, and educational speakers extend engagement beyond the campus. The community schedules Wii bowling tournaments, karaoke nights, holiday and birthday parties, and live dance or theater performances. A swimming pool, organized on-site activities, and access to outdoor areas round out the offerings, providing a balanced mix of recreation and lifelong learning opportunities.
