The Haven at Lee

The Haven at Lee is a small, locally owned senior care community designed for only 31 residents, which means everyone gets to know each other and it's easier for staff to keep track of personal needs, and you see that in their approach, because they've gone and remodeled the place so it's fresh and comfortable, with the sort of private and companion suites that make folks feel at home-not crowded or noisy like some larger places get. People who live there get help from dementia and mental health-trained nurses, plus services like a dietitian, registered nurse on call, nurse practitioner visits, pharmacy help, podiatry, even a hair stylist or barber if you need a trim. They've got a Five-Point Focus of Care model and offer memory care alongside assisted living, which is nice for people whose needs change over time. The staff believe in all kinds of therapies that go beyond the basics-not just medicine, but Brain Healthy Nutrition, Music Therapy, Aromatherapy, Animal Assisted Therapy, and structured activities to keep folks engaged and feeling like themselves a bit longer, so it's about the whole person, not only the disease. Housekeeping and laundry get handled, meals come from their own Haven's Table culinary services, and there are gardens and wide outdoor spaces with walking paths to stretch your legs or sit if you've got friends visiting. They help families with a free consultation, making it easier to compare nearby senior living options, and they have senior living advisors to guide you along the way. The support hours are early to evening during the week so there's a good window to reach someone. Reviews say it's a 4.5-star place, though they don't list exact prices, but you know, families mention reliable care, good food, and a safe feeling. The Respite Care Program helps if someone needs short-term help. There's a real focus on making the place safe and keeping everyone's dignity, and they seem to care about doing things the right way, even if it's not the fanciest set-up you'll find.
