Assisted Living Communities in Lexington, SC

"I have a friend over at Vitality Living Columbia. It's a beautiful place. I like the space that they have, the community, where it's located, and all of their activities. The rooms are very nice. The dining room is beautiful. The price is a little expensive, though. The cleanliness is fantastic. There's no odor. Even the dining room is very nice. The staff is nice, too. I tried their food because my friend was having her supper, and the food was wonderful. You order what you want. They have a lot of activities. They have transportation if you need to go to the doctor, and there are certain days when you can go out shopping if you want to. It is expensive, but they cater to the residents. I think twice a week, they come in and change their linen. Housekeeping is wonderful, too. They are nice at keeping your place clean and everything. I love it."

"My dad is in the memory care area of The Blake at Woodcreek Farms. He has a wonderful room. It's spacious enough. He has a sense of having an apartment and the people are wonderful. They try very hard to keep up with everybody and make sure everybody eats and is safe. They're all very caring and tender with the residents. The staff is a little lacking sometimes, but for the most part, they are very good. They come in and change his trash and clean up. They have been very caring of every resident, no matter what role the staff has. I see them come in, even the physical therapist stops by and makes sure somebody takes a few bites of food when they're not eating. So, they all work together very well to take care of the residents. They were also doing bingo with them one day, and everybody seemed to be enjoying that. I would highly recommend this place."

"The tour I had of Oakleaf Village of Lexington was great. It's beautiful and very clean. They have extremely knowledgeable staff. The rooms were very clean, new, and somewhat newly renovated with brand-new carpet. But they seemed to be a little bit smaller than the other rooms I had seen at other places. They had a lot of activities, but they didn't have PT or OT. They have an in-house salon, they have a manicure day for the ladies, and they have bingo. I met their activities coordinator. She was busy doing something with the memory care patients. The dining area was restaurant-style and excellent-looking."

"My mother is currently at Wellmore of Lexington for short-term rehab, but it's becoming more and more obvious that she's going to need to go to a skilled nursing facility. Once her Medicare runs out, they do not accept Medicaid. Because of that, I'm going to have to move her from here. I visit her every day. I have no complaints at all. It is very clean. I would love for her to be able to stay here. Neither she nor I have the financial resources to be able to pay for this. We have about another 30 days or so that her Medicare will be paying. If it was possible, I'd keep her here. This place is very good. The food is great, too. She undergoes some physical and occupational therapy every day, about an hour or so in total, a day. They also have group therapy on occasion. They have things that they do with the folks that are here."

"New Light Community Care is a small facility. The people are very nice and very caring. They want to make sure that my dad has a good, comfortable place to stay. He seems to be happy, and he enjoys the food. They have a very good cook. They help my dad with medicine and stuff like that. They have outdoor space. The rooms are pretty large. They have a TV and a couch in their room. They have a common area. They have their own bathroom. It is recommended by the VA."

"It was very nice. The person who accommodated me was very professional. The dining area looked clean and the apartment was nice. However, the place would not meet my fiance's needs. Overall, the community was friendly. The atmosphere felt warm, friendly and welcoming."

"I visited The Columbia Presbyterian Community. The person who showed me around was knowledgeable and helpful. The facilities were very, very nice. I saw a 2-bedroom apartment in independent living, and it was quite large. There's plenty of space for two people. I did not eat there but I saw their dining area, and it was attractive. They have an exercise room and an on-site physical therapist. They have all kinds of activities for fitness, rooms for card games, and places to watch video films."

"I have a family member staying there. The facility staff are always asking me what they can do for me or my family member. I am able to visit any day at anytime I want without having to call ahead. The facility has always been clean when I visit. The food is always prepared on time and hot. They provide a variety of meals for the residents. I am able to call anytime I want and a staff member will let me talk to my family member. The staff will also answer any questions I have. I like this facility more compared to the others that I have seen. One thing I like about this one is that there are at least 2 staff members that live on site at various times. I think this helps with the condition of the facility since some of the staff is actually living there also. They seem to really care about the residents. I would like it if the facility made some repairs to the outside concrete "walks". Some of the concrete slabs have sunken in the ground due to age and weather. The walkway is connected with several different concrete slabs. Due to the fact that some of the slabs have sunk in the ground. It has a caused the adjoining concrete slab to stick up at least an inch out of ground. This can cause a resident to slip and fall on the concrete walkway. "

"Carolina Gardens at West Columbia is a nice assisted living community and the services are exceptional. I have read some negative comments about the place, but you can't make everybody happy no matter what you do. One thing about it is that the pricing would come across pretty well, but my brother just can't afford to get into a single room. The only staff that I had contact with was the sales rep in charge. The staff was really nice, knowledgeable about what's going on and very courteous. The dining area looks like it's pretty well-kept. They have activities like bingo and other things. The sales rep staff gave us a tour of the rooms, the facilities and such, they were very forthcoming and discussed the cost."

"I'm interested with Generations of Irmo. It looks very nice. They are updating it so that it doesn't look dark and dreary. They have some amenities like all the rest. They have six meals a day, cleaning the room weekly, laundry weekly, and they will take care of whatever need that you have, whether it's medication or help with shower or dressing or whatever. The room rate is one price only. The owner was very thorough and very helpful. I haven't really met a lot of the staff, but the ones I did were very friendly. The dining area was bright and cheery."

"The rooms are spacious clean and modern appearing. The staff are friendly ,accommodating and communicative. The diet has been well prepared for my cousin who requires a special diet. The cost is reasonable for his level of care and they have been receptive to our medical needs ands orders . I recommend the place for anyone needing assisted care in the West Columbia area."

"I went to Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. The tour was very informative. The area was kind of secluded, but not too far off the main road. The housing options were viewable. It was very open, so they allowed us to go in and view how we would be living. The staff was very informative, answered all the questions we asked, and provided other options for us, too. For people who need care, they have their own section, and then the people who are trying to be independent are separate."

"We went into the memory care section of Fairforest Grove Senior Living and it was very nice. If it was within our budget, we would have liked for dad to be housed there. While we were there, they were doing group therapy where they were doing some type of rehabilitation. Then they had another group playing some games in the common area. Everyone that we came in contact with was very friendly and very professional. They greeted us and so we left with a good feeling."
