Lake St. Charles Retirement Community offers both Assisted Living and Independent Living, allowing residents to choose the level of support they need while staying in one location. Clinical services include on-site diabetes management, regular visits by a doctor, and access to a speech therapist, all coordinated to help residents maintain health and independence without leaving the property. A dedicated therapy room supports ongoing rehabilitation and strength-building programs, further reinforcing the community’s medical focus.
Additional care features center on safety and day-to-day assistance. A nurse is on call 24 hours a day, and all direct-care employees complete background checks before working with residents. Staff members can provide help with bathing and dressing for those who need some physical assistance, while eating and toileting remain self-directed. Residents who use walkers or wheelchairs receive appropriate transfer support. Security personnel are on site around the clock, and each apartment is equipped with pull-cord alerts that immediately notify staff.
Apartments are designed for convenience, but not every unit includes every feature. Standard housekeeping is provided, and scheduled laundry services keep clothing and linens clean. Independent Living residents may opt for the lighter Housekeeping for IL and Laundry for IL packages, which preserve autonomy while removing routine chores.
Meals are served three times daily with a choice between a set menu and on-order selections. A private dining room can be reserved for family gatherings or special events. The kitchen team accommodates diet modifications, including vegetarian options, so residents can follow physician-recommended meal plans without difficulty.
The property includes resident parking, an on-site barber and beauty shop, an exercise room, a movie room, a wellness center, a concierge desk, and a library. Scheduled transportation is available for medical appointments, and a community shuttle offers additional local travel as arranged.
