The Blake at Lafayette offers both Assisted Living and dedicated Memory Care, allowing residents to transition smoothly between levels of support without leaving the community. Licensed nurses coordinate care plans, speech therapy is available on-site, and specialized diabetes management is offered for those who need glucose monitoring and medication oversight. Families looking for a short-term solution can use the community’s respite program, which provides the same care standards as long-term residency.
Additional medical services are delivered in a secured community designed for consistent supervision. A visiting physician network brings podiatry, dentistry, hospice support, and ambulatory care directly to residents. Physical, occupational, and massage therapists conduct therapy sessions in designated treatment areas, and nurses manage medication administration, incontinence care, and ongoing assessments. These layers of care minimize the need for outside appointments and support continuity for individuals with progressive conditions.
Residences include a range of floor plans equipped with safety and convenience features such as wheelchair-accessible showers, handicap-friendly layouts, individually controlled air conditioning, cable or satellite television, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Some apartments offer access to outdoor areas or parking, and common spaces feature a piano or organ for resident use. Not every accommodation includes every listed feature, so prospective residents are encouraged to verify specific room amenities during a tour.
Dining follows a restaurant-style model with meals served throughout the day by a professional chef. Standard menus can be adjusted for low-sodium, no-sugar, vegan, or other physician-recommended diets, and guest meals are available for visiting family members. Residents can choose all-day dining options that suit their schedules, ensuring nutritional needs are met without rigid meal times.
On the lifestyle side, residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, fitness programs, indoor walking paths, and a swimming pool. Structured offerings include yoga or chair yoga, Montessori and reminiscence programs, sensory-based sessions, karaoke, live music, dances, birthday celebrations, and social outings. Gardening enthusiasts can use raised garden beds, and various clubs and communities encourage ongoing engagement.
