About Digby Place

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Digby Place offers assisted-living care with a clinical scope that includes wound management, oxygen therapy, special-diet oversight, and diabetic support for residents who are on oral medications, insulin injections, or sliding-scale regimens. The community is willing to admit adults under 60 and is equipped to care for individuals living with moderate dementia, coordinating closely with physicians to keep care plans current and to monitor changing needs.

Registered and licensed nurses are on staff, and a nurse is on call around the clock. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift and 24-hour staffed security with door alarms, fenced rear grounds, pull-cord alerts, and personal emergency response systems help address safety concerns. On-site medical services include visiting podiatry and the community can accept residents with psychiatric diagnoses when clinically appropriate. Staff can provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while residents who can self-feed do so under supervision. Mobility support ranges from standby help for walkers to one- or two-person transfers and Hoyer-lift positioning for those who need complete assistance.

Accommodations at Digby Place range in size and layout, and not every apartment includes every feature. Some units have private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable service, independent temperature controls, and the option for residents to paint or decorate their space. Furnished units are available for those who prefer a ready-to-move-in setting, while others may bring their own belongings.

Dining services combine a rotating set menu with the option to order alternate selections at mealtimes. Between-meal snacks are provided, and the culinary staff manages diet modifications for conditions such as diabetes and cardiac restrictions, coordinating with nursing for therapeutic orders.

Community amenities include resident parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, a barber and beauty shop, movie room, wellness center, internet access, and landscaped communal gardens. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Residents may smoke in designated outdoor areas. On-site religious services are available, and scheduled transportation as well as proximity to public transit help residents reach appointments and local destinations.

#2 in Lafayette, IN

Residents and their families say:

This community receives widespread praise for its caring and attentive staff, who are frequently highlighted as a primary reason residents and their families are happy with the services offered. Many reviewers appreciate the sense of family and the welcoming environment, stating it feels like home as soon as you walk through the doors. The size of the community is often mentioned favorably, as residents receive more personalized attention in a smaller setting. Additionally, the variety of activities and social opportunities available are seen as significant benefits, helping residents stay engaged and make new friends.

Nonetheless, some reviewers did mention that the smaller size of the community might not satisfy those looking for a bustling environment with numerous social opportunities. The quality and flavor of the food are areas pointed out by several reviewers as needing improvement, with some meals described as lacking flavor or being served cold. The cost of care increased for some residents due to additional services, like medication management. Agency staff hired during weekends or holidays were noted as less familiar with residents, leading to some inconsistencies in care.

The reviews indicate a strong consensus that the community provides a supportive, safe, and clean environment for residents. Families express gratitude for the efforts of the staff in making challenging transitions easier for their loved ones and themselves. While there is room for improvement in specific areas like meal service and handling cost fluctuations, the overall sentiment is that residents receive excellent care and enjoy living in a close-knit community.
