Maison De Lafayette operates as a nursing home, delivering around-the-clock skilled nursing care for residents who require continuous medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on site 24 hours a day to handle medication administration, wound care, and coordination of physician-ordered treatments. The community also offers short-term respite stays, enabling family caregivers to take planned breaks while their loved ones receive the same clinical attention afforded to long-term residents.
Beyond direct nursing services, the care team provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy on an as-needed basis, working with each resident’s physician to establish individualized care plans. On-site lab draws, pharmacy coordination, and regular health assessments help reduce the need for outside appointments. Social workers and discharge planners assist with transitions to and from hospitals or rehabilitation centers, ensuring continuity of care.
Resident accommodations include a selection of private and shared rooms. Some rooms overlook an outdoor garden, and many open onto walking paths or other outdoor areas where residents may enjoy supervised time outside. A limited number of suites are designated pet friendly, and several units come pre-wired for cable TV or are located near the library and computer lounge; not every accommodation has each of these features, so availability depends on the specific room.
Dining services center on three daily meals prepared in the facility’s kitchen. Menus are reviewed by dietitians to account for physician-ordered dietary needs such as low-sodium, diabetic, or mechanical-soft options. Staff assist residents who require help with eating and monitor intake to support adequate hydration and nutrition.
An on-site activity center hosts daily programming that ranges from exercise classes to arts projects, while clubs and interest-based communities offer residents structured opportunities to socialize with peers. Scheduled social outings keep residents engaged with the Lafayette area, and transportation is arranged and supervised by staff to accommodate varying mobility levels.
