LAFAYETTE GARDENS

I visited this facility

Lafayette Gardens was terrible. Most of the residents looked like they were way beyond being able to remember anything. The staff, while friendly, was not attentive to them, with the exception of one person feeding somebody else. They had individual rooms that seemed clean. There was a urine smell. Other than that, it wasn't anything I'd give top ratings for.

Lafayette Gardens is more of a residential facility. It's on a much smaller scale. They have five or six rooms, and it's a home. The residents have their own bedroom. The upkeep was attractive. It looked well- maintained and clean. The owner-operator was very helpful and very friendly. She gave me a description of the facility and their service in terms of their staff, 24/7.

I'm not sure about their activities because they showed me the front door, and they showed me a room and the kitchen. It was more like a home living house and not a big facility. Food was ad…

A final place for my mom

We chose LaFatyette because of the location and the manger was extremely friendly, and it was clean and in a nice neighborhood. She did upsell us on some things that went away after a couple days of being in here. The staff members were very sweet, they were gentle with my mom and would sing to her and were just very caring. Overall, I would recommend to others who are looking.

We needed a home for our elderly family friend who lost the ability to walk and take care of herself within just a few months. Truly a stressful decision!

Her room is roomy and bright and while we brought in her own furniture, a hosp…
