Rosewalk Village of Lafayette provides dedicated Memory Care designed for residents living with early to advanced dementia. The team is experienced in managing wandering behaviors, elopement risk, nighttime wakefulness, combative or other behavioral issues, and diabetes at all intervention levels, including oral medications, injections, and sliding-scale insulin. Residents who require close observation due to changing cognitive or medical needs can receive that oversight on site, helping reduce hospital trips and allowing continuity of care.
Around-the-clock licensed nursing coverage includes an RN or LPN on every shift, with a 24-hour nurse available for urgent concerns. Background-checked caregivers remain awake overnight, and security measures such as door alarms, a wander guard system, fenced grounds, and in-room pull cords help keep residents safe. The facility hosts regular on-site visits from podiatry, audiology, dental, and psychiatric professionals and maintains a therapy room for rehabilitative services. Staff provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, and toileting, while encouraging self-feeding when possible. Mobility support ranges from standby help with a walker to one- or two-person transfers and wheelchair management.
Accommodation options include furnished or unfurnished suites that may feature a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable, and the ability to paint or decorate the space. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, although individual rooms may not contain every listed feature, so families should confirm specifics during a tour.
Meals follow a set menu with an on-order component for added choice, and snacks are available throughout the day. Residents can dine in the main room, request in-room service, or reserve the private dining area for family gatherings. Therapeutic diets are accommodated, including gluten-free selections, vegetarian dishes, mechanical-chopped or puréed consistencies, and thickened liquids for safe swallowing.
Residents have access to wheelchair-friendly common areas, an exercise room, a barber and beauty shop, communal gardens, a library, special-interest clubs, and high-speed internet. On-site religious services and a concierge help meet spiritual and practical needs, and scheduled transportation supports medical appointments and community outings.
