They were willing to adjust her diet to the complex dietary rules for someone on dialysis.

I explained that he was often aggressive and could even be violent and was assured that Lafayette Residential Care could take of him. Sadly for the caregivers at Lafayette Residential Care and for my husband this was not the case - they could not manage him and within three days asked him to leave.

Very nice staff

Very nice staff, clean building inside and out, and super fun activities. The thing I like about this place is that the staff genuinely seems to care about the people here. A great place that made our transition much easier.
