The Blake at Bossier City delivers two primary levels of care: Assisted Living and Memory Care. Residents who need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication reminders receive consistent support from trained caregivers. For those living with dementia or other cognitive changes, the community’s Memory Care program combines structured routines with therapies that address safety and engagement. On-site medical support includes diabetes monitoring and management, with access to a speech therapist for residents requiring help with communication or swallowing challenges.
A secured community design controls entry and exit points to help protect residents prone to wandering. Licensed nurses oversee incontinence care, ambulatory assistance, medication management, and hospice coordination. Occupational and physical therapists develop rehabilitation plans, while a podiatrist addresses foot health on a scheduled basis. Memory Care areas are laid out and furnished specifically to reduce confusion and accommodate memory loss, reinforcing consistent cues to support resident orientation.
Private and companion suites are available, each equipped with climate control and cable or satellite TV; some floor plans add Wi-Fi, wheelchair-accessible showers, balconies, patios, or terraces. Parking is offered for residents who still drive, and common spaces include a central fireplace, a piano or organ for resident use, and outdoor areas with raised garden beds. Because floor plans vary, not every suite contains every listed feature, so it is best to verify specific accommodations during a visit.
Dining operates on a restaurant-style model with a professional chef preparing three daily meals plus all-day options for lighter fare. Menus can be customized for low or no sodium, no sugar, or gluten-free requirements, and staff monitor nutritional intake for residents with specialized diets such as diabetic needs. Family members and friends may join residents for guest meals, making it easier to share time together without leaving the community.
Amenities and programs aim to keep residents active and socially engaged. The activity center hosts clubs, birthday parties, dances, karaoke, live music, yoga or chair-yoga classes, and happy hours. Residents can walk indoors or follow outdoor walking paths that connect to raised garden beds and a swimming pool area. A library and computer lounge supports lifelong learning, while intergenerational and sensory-based programs encourage varied interaction. Reminiscence sessions, fitness programs, social outings, and community events round out a schedule designed to meet physical, cognitive, and social goals.
