I highly recommend Lakeview Senior Living. My dad lived there for about six years and really enjoyed his time there. Lakeview is a vibrant community with interesting residents. The building - including all of the common areas - is very nice and well maintained. The staff are all very friendly and caring - from the front desk to the dining room to housekeeping. Renee and Kelly are outstanding and very caring leaders of the community. The activities are excellent (the program is led by Karen who does a great job). Dad always enjoyed the exercise classes (there is a first rate work out facility on site) as well as the many and varied word games (like crossword puzzle, marvelous minds and humongous words). There are two active book clubs as well as lots of different outings and special events (like Father’s Day for example). The dining staff does a good job with creating a varied menu and tasty meals (and special events like Mother’s Day brunch). All of these things really enriched Dad’s life and we enjoyed participating in them with him as well. Thanks to all at Lakeview for the great work you do. We so enjoyed being part of the community.

Lakeview Senior Living is very nice, newer, and is a beautiful setting. The price is reflective of that. There's no inside parking and they charge for meals for relations and guests. I couldn't justify the additional money that they wanted in order to live in a more elegant facility. It very nice though and the people were very nice. The only deterrent in my book was the price.

Choosing Lakeview Senior Living was the best choice we could have made! My mother thrived there! The staff are amazing. They are truly friendly, helpful, responsive, kind, and interested in the lives and families of their residents. They supported us in every way they could. We knew them all on a first name basis - the same staff over 2+ years we were there. Mom made several friends while there.
The food was very good - as well as the meal service set up/flexibility, the activities, and amenities, It was always clean, refreshed, and nicely appointed.
There was a wonderful energy and creativity of the staff.
They also seemed to really enjoy their work and the residents. They were there for us while mom was doing well, when she needed extra help, and then finally when she needed Palliative and Hospice care. They were there for my mom and us. I do not hesitate to give them the highest recommendation!

I teach a class called "Uniquely You" once a month at Lakeview. As someone who teaches and speaks a lot, this is one of my favorite groups- lively, informative, wise, and fun. Lisa Jensen, the "director of fun" is a blast and a hoot to work with.

My mother moved to Lakeview in September 2015 after living in her same home for 61 years. While it was hard getting her to downsize from a four bedroom house to a two bedroom apartment, my mother is loving her new apartment, her new friends, and her new freedom. Thank you Lakeview for helping my mom transition so quickly. My mom didn't know anyone living at Lakeview, but the staff and residents are welcoming. If you are looking for a place for your parent(s), make an appointment to see an apartment at Lakeview. Well worth your time and there is no hard sale pitch so don't worry about visiting.

"This Feels Like Home" is one of Lakeview Senior Living Center's advertising slogans...and it is accurate! Living in Lakeview some 3 years has been a real plus for Mother. The facility is large enough to provide the expected quality meals, wide variety of activities and accessible transportation, but small enough that staff has a high degree of familiarity with each resident.
While an independent living facility, there are additional personal care services that can be arranged which might keep a Lakeview resident in this facility longer and not require transfer to one offering assisted living - good for the resident not to readjust again.

My mom has been living at Lakeview since June 2015 and her overall wellbeing has improved greatly. She is always doing something and visiting with other residents.
They have been very inviting and friendly, making the transition a lot easier. Eating good, nutritious meals seems to have made a big improvement in her health and mental status as well.

The staff seemed to be very pleasant and very accommodating at Lakeview Senior Living. They had large apartments. They had a kitchen area, a living room area, and a bedroom area. They had very nice layouts. The facility was kept in pretty good shape as well.

The staff was wonderful, and the food was excellent. The apartments were small, more like efficiency style apartments. They had off campus activities and game nights, and they had a theater. I actually preferred Lakeview better than the one my mother is living in.

Lakeview Senior Living was the nicest at the right price. Everything about it is what we were looking for. We ate a meal there, the staff was very nice, and the food was really good, so that was the choice for me. My parents are going into a 1-bedroom apartment, and it’s plenty of room for them. The rooms are very nice, very clean, airy, and have lots of windows. They have movies every night. They have entertainment twice a week and all kinds of card games, physical therapy, and a workout room -- just about everything they might need.

We choose Lakeview Senior Living for my dad because he wants to go there. It is fairly new. It is very bright and cheery. They are clean. They have studio apartments, but they have more, there is even a two-bedroom, I believe. The staff is excellent.

We toured at Lakeview, and we loved it. We were very impressed with the whole facility during our visit. We really very much liked it, but they do not have assisted living. The rooms were beautiful, I couldn’t find anything wrong with it.
The food was wonderful like a triple A restaurant and served beautifully. We liked the dining room very much. There’s a gym, library, salon, movie theater, and jigsaw puzzle room. The rooms have balcony, and the place is secured. They drive you to medical appointments or to church.

My father lived here for a couple of years. He had a very nice apartment with a great view. He was happy here. There are many activities and chances to socialize. The food is great and the staff is wonderful and caring. This is a very well run facility.

I have lived at Lakeview Senior Living for quite a while now. It just interested me. Everything is pretty good here. The staff is very good. They have lots of stuff. They have a director of fun, and she tries really hard to keep us busy all the time. She does a good job. They treat you like a human. I take part in what I feel like and I let the rest go. You can play hard. You could have happy hour. You could just live normally here. I appreciate that.

We're in an apartment. We have two bedrooms, a laundry room, two bathrooms, and a full kitchen. Lakeview has all kinds of activities, like trips, card games, and they take people to places. The food is excellent. They have waiters and waitresses. They have a selection of food to eat, and the food is good. But I miss the bathtub here. They just have showers and no bathtub, which I think is a safety thing. Of course, we're older now, too.
Here, we have safety things that we can wear around our necks. If people are alone and might fall and not be able to get up, they just press a button and they're connected to the front desk right away. Somebody comes up from the front desk. If you have fallen, they will not pick you up; they send for an ambulance. That's another safety feature. They could be sued if they drop you and you get worse. They don't want you to get up if you can't.

We decided on Lakeview Senior Living, but we are just not there yet. We chose this facility because it was the right fit for what we need. It provided a couple of meals in a day and that is what we wanted. They also provide transportation if you need it. We also like that this facility is fairly new. I saw their apartment and they are fine; we like it. With the activities, I know they have all kinds of games, outings, movies, and they even have meals out if you want to go. It almost has everything me and my husband needed.

In 2012, after having surgery for a very rare form of cancer, I felt very fortunate to be accepted by Azura for a rehabilitation stay.. Prior to leaving the hospital, I made many calls in an attempt to find a facility where I would receive aggressive rehab in order for me to recover as quickly as possible.
I could not have been more pleased. The suites were beautiful and comfortable. The entire staff from housekeeper to therapist could not have been more pleasant, thorough and accommodating.
At that time the patient to therapist ratio was four to one, thus allowing thorough, high quality, individualized therapy for each patient.
The food was good, considering the many selections which were offered.
Although more than 150 miles from home and family, I felt at 'home' because of the warmth and caring attitude of the entire staff.
If I ever required rehab again, this facility would be where I would want to go because of the wonderful experience I had during my previous stay. In fact, I'd love the experience of a three day respite, were it possible to do so!

Recently my mother spent 17 days at Powerback rehab in Lafayette.
We were initially concerned by the reviews however we found that the 17 days went by very well for our mother. The head of physical therapy stopped by on Sunday and introduced himself and took some time to get to know mom and what moms concerns were, PT and OT was planned and the plan worked. The average response time was 3-5 minutes for a response once the call button was pressed, very acceptable.
. We found the staff to be very caring and professional. Nursing -Dr. PA, RN, CNA, LPN were available and ready to assist. Our mom required to be moved to another facility and the case worker was very helpful for moms transfer.
The menu or food can be changed until 6:30 pm to accommodate your loved ones eating habits. The food service was friendly and helpful, you need to remember to ask for what you may like.
The facility is new and very nice,our do It is very hard when a family member is involved, To give a honest review, was everything perfect-no but you ask questions and try to get it corrected.

AVOID!!! ZERO CARE & WORST REHAB. Social club for employees, takes hours for staff to respond to help buttons. Rehab consists of checklists "teaching" how to use a grabber, microwave tea, go up stairs. Third back surgery, all this was known. Needed place to heal and get strong. Kicked out after a few days. They know how to submit paperwork to get paid and ensure their backsides are covered.

My father is a stroke survivor and we unfortunately chose PowerBack for care after he was released from the hospital. The therapists are great and I'm thankful for the progress he's made, however care at this place is horrific. They claim to be fully staffed but throughout the time he was there care was extremely limited. Several times after a call was placed to the nurses station it took well over 20 for anybody to respond. If sheets are soiled they are not changed. My sister and I took it upon ourselves to find supplies and make sure that sheets where changed when needed, filled up the mini fridge with water and made sure pads and undergarments were available in his room. Please if you know your loved one needs help getting to and from the restroom or needs assistance getting dressed...This is NOT the place you want to send them. Awful, awful experience with the care staff.

My mom was at PowerBack Rehabilitation for a long time. It was understaffed, and cleanliness was poor. They kept giving her Mylanta even though she didn't need it, so she was having trouble with diarrhea. She got the toilet seat dirty, and they didn't clean it up at all; they expected her to sit on it. There were a few good ones on the staff. The last time I asked about my mom's toilet, they said they would call maintenance to clean up the mess, but they didn't. They never did get it done. They had a library and they would bring a DVD player and movies to you. Once a week, they had Movie Day, and they had Bingo one time. They need to do a better job of making food that is good for the residents. The staff needs to check on the residents and do a better job of getting things cleaned up and taken care of. I wouldn't want anyone to have to go there.

The rooms are very nice at Powerback Rehab, but they have some inconsistencies in their management with turnovers of their staff, so that impacts the care a little bit. They have really extensive physical therapy and exercise programs.

Beautiful place, world's worst food, poor care. I worked in health care for 30 years and I cannot believe that this facility is still in business.

The Azura of Lakewood Rehabilitation Suites was a very upscale facility. It didn't have the feel of a nursing home; it felt more like a hotel. The staff didn't seem to be caring. They were almost like if you were getting a hotel room as opposed to somebody who's talking to you about the health of your parents.

We had to place Mom-in-law at Azura for rehab because the other nursing home we've gone to before, was under renovation. Their facility was top notch but the staff is a big zero. The facility is like a luxury hotel and the room is gorgeous. The staff is horrible and we had to fight tooth and nail for her rehab. It was miserable. She was there for 5 weeks.

I went to Azura Rehab. I chose this nursing home because it was right across the street from where I live. I also heard about it from people and they were saying that it was a good facility. The living environment wasn't that bad. Food there was not the finest quality. The staff was helpful though a little unorganized. They did have the usual activities for their patients. Nevertheless, I was very satisfied with their rehab service. Overall, my experience was all right.
