Why Senior Living Residents Love Kensington Place
Good friends, good food, warm fellowship: that’s just the beginning at LSS Kensington Place in Columbus, Ohio. As a senior living resident, you enjoy the perks of an exceptional lifestyle, and you are encouraged to continuously share your ideas on how to make it even better.
Kensington Place is a breath of fresh air for senior living residents.
Our community is designed to enrich your life in multiple ways, all in a welcoming environment that listens to and respects resident opinions and preferences.
Here, you are regarded with the respect that you deserve, and your input is valued. Says Kensington Place resident Becky, “We residents enjoy a true voice in the community and are considered part of the Kensington Place team. We all have a say through resident counsel and program committees—and the administration listens. We work together to make operational improvements. It is a team approach, and it is intentional.”
With all the attention paid to resident input and experience, it’s no wonder Kensington Place is a local favorite! Becky goes on to say, “I have found Kensington Place to be a wonderful source of fulfillment, purpose and fellowship.” She urges anyone searching for senior living to not be distracted by fancy design.
“When you visit Kensington Place, listen with your ears and your heart. The welcoming atmosphere is what sets this community apart.”
Residents also love how easy it is to stay active and engaged. With no worries or responsibilities, you can do as you please: weekly offsite luncheons, visits to museums, concerts and ballgames, book talks, a knitting group, movie nights, bridge club, and more. There are also walking paths, a rooftop terrace, media room, library and a 24-hour fully equipped fitness center with a personal trainer (no extra charge) as well as a massage therapist. Transportation to shopping and medical appointments is provided.

The result is an atmosphere focused on providing the support and resources necessary to promote and sustain healthy aging. In fact, when it comes to the health benefits for a senior living resident at Kensington Place, you will find several success stories. For example, Ella, a resident just shy of 100 years, says, “My cardiologist says the exercise program has helped keep my heart strong.”
Many seniors are attracted to fact that as part of Lutheran Social Services, Kensington Place is a not-for-profit senior living community (not a “buy-in,” as are some of the competitors). Mary, another satisfied senior living resident of Kensington Place, also likes the community’s size.
“Values drive the decisions that impact residents here,” she says. “Kensington Place is just the right size: not too big, not too fancy. Many of the other not-for-profit communities are very large, making it hard to connect. Plus, our apartments are more spacious than the others.”
Becky simply thinks our community is the best. “There is not another community in town that operates as well as Kensington Place,” she says.
Perhaps the best proof of all: more than one current resident has chosen Kensington Place after seeing what a great experience their parent enjoyed as a resident.
