Meadow Lake Senior Living – Tyler
Meadow Lake Senior Living, Tyler offers independent living, assisted living, memory care, nursing home care, skilled nursing, and respite care in Tyler, TX. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision. Nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while respite care offers a short stay when a family caregiver needs to travel or recover.
The community has 20 beds, creating a smaller setting where staff and residents can get to know each other. One bedroom and two bedroom housing options can work for someone living alone, a couple moving together, or a resident who wants a companion. Pets are allowed, so residents can keep a pet in the community. The range of care levels may suit someone whose needs could grow over time, or a family needing short term care while a primary caregiver travels or recovers.
Residents can spend time on walking trails, fish in a stocked lake, or use the rustic community lodge for outdoor time and entertaining. Clubs, classes, and hobby groups provide organized activities. Scheduled transportation serves appointments and outings, while a salon and rehabilitation services are also available within the community.
Medicare and private pay are accepted, giving families two listed ways to cover care. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours 6 minutes per resident per day, representing that amount of daily nurse staffing time allocated per resident. A Walk Score of 33 out of 100 indicates a car dependent setting where most errands require a car or a ride. A resident who no longer drives would generally need transportation for errands.
