Lincolnshire Assisted Living sits in Clearwater, FL and offers care in a warm, homestyle setting where everyone knows each other's names. The place holds only 20 residents in all private bedrooms, so folks get plenty of attention and feel like they're part of a family, with a caregiver-to-resident ratio of about 1-2 caregivers to every 5-7 residents. The building is just one story, with no stairs, and has wheelchair-accessible showers and rooms, which makes things easier for people to get around, and the grounds outside are filled with green grass and trees. A family owns and runs Lincolnshire, and they fill the place with a friendly, family-centered culture, with staff staying long-term, so residents see the same faces. Director Vicky, who's known for being warm and easy to talk to, leads the team and keeps things running smoothly.
Services cover independent living, assisted living, and memory care, and the home lets folks age in place without moving as their needs change. Residents get help with daily activities like bathing, getting dressed, and taking medicine, and staff keep an eye on everyone 24 hours a day using a call system. The medical team includes licensed med techs, a house doctor, nurse, and therapists, who coordinate with outside providers, too. Residents with Alzheimer's or other memory challenges have special care so they're safe and supported. The home also provides respite care for short-term stays and can offer hospice support. Lincolnshire accepts Medicaid and charges a flat, all-inclusive rate, so families don't have to worry about extra costs popping up.
Rooms are cozy and come with beds, dressers, TVs, mini-fridges, and folks can decorate to their own taste. The dining room features patriotic flags and big windows bringing in sunlight, and meals are home-cooked, tasty, and healthy, with snacks and drinks available all day and options for vegetarians. The open dining and flexible schedules mean everyone eats when they're hungry, and showers happen around a resident's preferences, not on a strict timetable. Many people keep a pet under set weight limits, and the staff helps take care of them.
Daily life includes things like arts and crafts, movie nights, trips outside the home, and activities designed for both mind and body. Residents enjoy the garden, arts room, a barber/salon, indoor and outdoor gathering spots, and transportation for appointments or outings. Staff put focus on keeping the home clean, cheery, and free of clutter, and folks feel welcome and happy with the always-open communication-families can call or text the staff and get a quick update. Lincolnshire Assisted Living holds a current Florida license (AL8782) and keeps policies clear. This is a smaller, quiet place with a "bed and breakfast" feel, where care is thoughtful and people treat each other with kindness.
