Overview
Retirement should be spent nurturing your passions and exploring your hobbies. And of course, you’ll need plenty of time to relax! That’s our goal for you at Brookdale Lafayette. Our assisted living community in Lafayette, Louisiana, is conveniently located near shopping centers, restaurants and the area’s major hospitals. And for those that might require a little extra assistance, our campus also has a memory care program tailored to residents with dementia and Alzheimer’s.
As an assisted living community, we’re here to help residents maintain their active and independent lifestyles while providing help with more trivial life tasks like cooking, cleaning and medication management. We’ll tailor your care to meet your specific needs and will coordinate healthcare appointments with outside providers. This leaves you more time to relax and have fun. Residents can enjoy weekly trips to nearby shopping centers or museums, game nights, or cooking classes with friends.
With memory care, we take a person-centered approach. Your loved one will pursue our daily path of enrichment, designed to help them nurture their current skills and sense of purpose and belonging. In addition, staff will lead residents through engaging activities like art classes, brain games, and music nights. We have long-standing programs for seniors in both the early and late stages of dementia, and you can relax knowing that our staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to be alerted to an emergency.
Residents will choose from various apartment floor plans, fully customizable to their individual tastes. You will also be able to relax on our palm tree-lined porch, unwind in the game room, attend book club in the library or lounge in our fireside living room. We also have an on-site chapel, garden, and beauty/barber shop.
Our cozy dining room offers an expansive menu of multiple course meals. And the events calendar is action-packed. Assisted living residents can partake in everything from weekly devotional services to movie nights, walking clubs, brain games, and exercise classes. And for memory care, we offer themed music nights, coffee hours, gardening classes, on-site massages and more. And there are always birthday parties, housewarming parties and holiday festivities to partake in as well.

We moved Dad into Brookdale about 7 1/2 weeks ago. He is adjusting nicely and we are very Appreciative of the staff and administration. Any issues that we have experienced have been resolved quickly and we really appreciate the way Sarah, the director, has an open door policy. Dad is happy, enjoying wonderful meals, many activities, and getting very good care by the staff. We can rest assured that he is in a wonderful place and we are welcome to visit him every day. It has been a very positive experience for our family.

We moved my mom into Brookdale Lafayette yesterday. It was an amazing experience and far exceeded our expectations. Everyone, staff and residents, went over and above to make sure Mom was taken care of and felt welcome. She’s already made so many friends and my siblings and I can finally relax knowing Mom is safe and living her best life.

Amazing staff with a welcoming and caring team who know their residents and family and address all needs. This is our first experience with assisted living and it’s been all positive!! My dad has been at Brookdale for two months and he is thriving and loves it. We looked at 7 places and all agreed this was the best. Every healthcare person we talk to in the community highly recommends Brookdale. The staff is amazing and we couldn’t be happier with his care team. Everyone is engaged and caring and involved with the residents and their family. I visit daily and have come to know the employees and see their compassion and love for my dad. He told me that he doesn’t miss his home and he feels safe at Brookdale. That’s exactly the place we were searching for!! If you’re looking for the perfect place…..this is it!!
