Meadowthorpe Assisted Living & Memory Care is very friendly and open. My brother-in-law likes it there very much. His room is very nice and very much adequate. He is in the memory care and they do activities with them. Their price is a little on the high side, but considering the care that he's given, it's a good value for the money.

We went to Meadow Thorpe Assisted Living & Memory Care. The lady was very sweet and very thorough. It was a good tour. It was just not for my mom partly because of the menu and the fact that they ate at a specific time during the day. For example, breakfast is at 8, lunch is at noon, and dinner is at 5. My mom eating dinner at 5, that's just not going to work. The apartments were a generous size, so they had that going for them for sure. I think the number of the cottages has eight apartments. There were five cottages and there were eight apartments in each. In that regard, if you were looking for something a little more small and intimate, that might be nice, but it wasn't what we were looking for. The lady that did the tour was great. She was very nice and very helpful; we just didn't get a good feeling about the place. You bring your own furniture to the apartment. It has a refrigerator but no stove.

Tour was very nice just ended up with place that fit our families needs better.

They are very short staffed.

I highly recommend Meadowthorpe Assisted Living! My father has been living there for almost 4 years. We are impressed by the administrative and care staff, who are very compassionate, professional, and dedicated to working with elderly people with dignity and respect. I also appreciate the clear communication they maintain with us about changes to his situation and the ways they help us all work together to sustain his quality of life and care. We also love the cottage layout, which is not only very warm and homey, but also allows for a good staff-to-resident ratio. Each resident can have their own small apartment space while also staying connected with the community through shared events. We are very grateful Meadowthorpe is in Lexington.

Meadowthorpe Assisted Living and Memory Care is about two and a half years old. It's new, and they have a cottage-style setup. It's very homey. They have 6 cottages and at least one of them is for Alzheimer's residents, while the others are for assisted living. Each cottage has 5 bedrooms/living areas with a bath and shower. The rooms were well-appointed. The bathroom is a good size. The shower was huge. It needs curtains because the water stays in the shower. They have 3 to 4 handlebars, so there's plenty of things to grab onto. You bring your own chair to sit down and wash. Then you can stand and rinse off. It's a complete walk-in shower. There's no stepover or anything. So, that made me feel safe. The kitchenette and the counters were all granite and very nicely done. They had these nice dark wood cabinets. They have one caregiver for each cottage, so there's a ratio of 8 to 1. They were very nice and very attentive to your questions and needs. They also provide everybody with one of those watches/necklaces to call for assistance. You just press the buttons. In each cottage, they have the common community area with a nice fireplace and seating. They have four tables for the eight residents. You have a kitchen area where you can heat up food in the microwave. There are coffee pots for you, and the refrigerator has free snacks and drinks. The idea was very well put together. You get a small number of neighbors in each cottage, but the cottages interact for big events/activities. They have another room for entertainment with a piano. There's even one of the cottages that had a bar setup. They have transportation on schedule for medical visits twice a month with no cost. If you have a third medical appointment, that's a $3 charge. They can do the grocery shopping for you, too. They pick up your orders and bring them to your room. The activities could have been improved. I thought they were over cautious with COVID because they haven't been out on outings, but they're going for the first time this month.
