Oakleaf Village of Lexington

Oakleaf Village of Lexington, located in Lexington, SC offers assisted living & memory care. Visit Provider Website

Physical, occupational and speech therapy happen on site through FOX Rehabilitation, a named outside clinical partner, along with fall risk screens and outcomes tracking, so a course of therapy after a fall doesn't have to mean going somewhere else for it.

That is the sort of detail that decides things when you are comparing buildings in Lexington, SC. Oakleaf Village of Lexington says it sits minutes from physicians' offices and Lexington Medical Center, five minutes from Lake Murray, and close to Main Street downtown, so your doctor stays a short ride away.

Pricing at Oakleaf Village of Lexington

The community's own website never puts a price on an apartment here, residences page and both care pages included, and Liberty Senior Living, who manages Oakleaf Village of Lexington, keeps pricing to a request. No rent sits beside the Noble, Regal, Estate or Memory Care Manor plans, so a monthly figure attached to this community elsewhere is that site's estimate rather than the operator's own number. Naming the plan in a Get Pricing request gets you the monthly cost of that exact apartment, so the 350 square foot Noble studio and the 600 square foot Estate become two prices you can weigh rather than two sizes.

Rooms at Oakleaf Village of Lexington

Assisted living has three named plans and memory care has one, and every one of them comes with its square footage attached:

• Noble: studio, 1 bath, 350 square feet
• Regal: one bedroom, 1 bath, 450 square feet
• Estate: two bedroom, 1 bath, 600 square feet
• Memory Care Manor: studio, 1 bath, 330 square feet

No monthly rent sits beside any of the four, so size is what you can compare today. Kitchenettes have granite countertops with a refrigerator and a microwave, bathrooms have walk-in showers, and every apartment has its own climate control, so you keep your own thermostat setting.

Care and Support at Oakleaf Village of Lexington

The assisted living team helps with personal grooming, medication management and the other everyday things, and the operator says staff are available 24/7, but it never says what that means at 3 a.m., so that's question one on the tour. Residents also get rides to scheduled doctor's appointments in a community vehicle, so a specialist visit doesn't hang on somebody taking a day off work. Memory care sits in a dedicated neighborhood the operator describes as designed for safety, familiarity and dignity, so your mother or father isn't crossing the whole building to find their own door.

Dining at Oakleaf Village of Lexington

The operator lists three chef-prepared meals a day, served restaurant style, with a la carte options when the day's entree is not what you want. A private dining room is there for a birthday, so family can eat with you instead of just visiting. Meals sit on one general amenities list rather than being broken out by care level, so what changes in memory care is a good thing to raise when you request pricing.

Life at Oakleaf Village of Lexington

Activities run off a monthly calendar, and memory care keeps a calendar of its own, so neither group gets one stretched-out program. Scheduled transportation goes to events as well as to medical appointments, and a salon and barber shop, weekly housekeeping and personal laundry and linen service are on the operator's list too, which is most of the chores you would stop doing. There is also a Positive Points on Aging audio series for families sorting through decisions about an aging parent.
