Lafayette Special Care Unit

The Lafayette Special Care Unit provides state-of-the-art care and treatment for up to 69 residents living their lives with dementia. The unit is split into two separate resident care units, Lafayette East and Lafayette West, so the staff can provide the appropriate level of care required for residents who are at a higher or lower level of functioning.

These units provide programming in an environment specifically designed for dementia care, such as gardening, music therapy programs, religious services, intergenerational programs, pet therapy, exercise groups, and cooking activities. The staff has incorporated a more individualized approach to resident care, adding special events and holiday celebrations to their activity calendar.

The outdoor courtyards, designed to enhance therapeutic recreation and nostalgic memories, allow residents to wander freely, yet remain in a safe and secure environment.
