I really struggled with the decision to let others care for my Mom. After several months of doing it alone I was exhausted beyond anything I had ever experienced. A cousin came over while I toured Plein de Vie and the minute I walked in, I knew I was in the right place. It’s a BEAUTIFUL HOME - nothing institutional about it. Clean. Delicious meals. The staff truly cared and treated my Mom with love and respect. The families of the other residents were all supportive and friendly. Although my mom has passed away, the staff at PdV quickly became extended family and keep in touch. I can’t say enough about how truly special our experience with Plein de Vie was - don’t hesitate if you need help with a loved one. They’re not just care givers - they care.

About Plein de Vie Estates in Lafayette, Louisiana
Plein de Vie Estates is a unique, one-of-a-kind care home in Lafayette, Louisiana and Acadiana's first truly residential alternative to assisted living and memory care. You won't find a cold, corporate setting here. Our beautiful 5,000+ Sq. Ft. home is situated in the community, not in an industrial area. With a maximum occupancy of 10 residents, PDV is not a storage facility. Indeed, we believe, like our name implies, that our residents are "Full of Life."
We provide many stimulating activities to help seniors impacted by Alzheimer's and/or dementia to maintain as much independence as possible. As a locally owned and operated assisted living, we treat all residents as if they are family. This resonates to all aspects of operations. Our owners, who have a combined 20 years experience of caring for the elderly and mentally and physically infirmed, can be found daily at PDV. A claim that almost no other assisted living can make. One of our biggest pet peeves is being told the price is one thing, but when it comes time to pay, the price is significantly higher. Facilities will often charge a "lower" price on monthly rent, but charge for assistance with showers, incontinence care, and any other reason why someone would actually need to be placed in a supportive setting. We at PDV believe this is not only wrong but predatory. You can't simply move Mom and Dad out and find another place, so often times people will just pay these predatory fees. At PDV, the all-inclusive price you are told is the price you will pay, period! You won't find a point, step, or incremental billing system here.
Though we have nothing personal against big box assisted living facilities, our goal is to shake up and redefine what memory care and assisted living can be. Your loved ones worked hard to raise a family in the Acadiana area, why not allow them to stay in the community. We provide the least restrictive, most family-like environment you will find in assisted living and memory care. Just some of our services are:
- 24/7 supervision at industry leading standards
- Unlimited assistance with incontinence care
- Stimulating daily activities
- Assistance with ADLs
- No cost haircuts by licensed cosmetologist
- Quiet residential setting
- Memory care services
- Age in place with hospice care, etc
- So much more.
So if you are looking for a home for a loved one, we hope that you will consider what PDV has to offer.

We are Charles and Connie Pichoff. Connie has Parkinson’s and I have a heart and lung problem. Connie was my caregiver. We needed help! We found caring.com and we found Plein de Vie Estates. God sent us here. Here,we have 24/7 care; excellent food; superb staff and much more. We are very grateful and happy we’re here. Our room is beautiful and comfortable. There is a beautiful TV room and tables to play board games and many more activities to come. What can we say, “WE LOVE IT HERE “! You will also!

I am so glad that I had the opportunity to tour Plein de Vie Estates and speak with the owners of the company. It was so nice to have the owners of the company present and accessible, which was a first after viewing multiple properties. The home was absolutely beautiful and nothing like any other property we toured. It truly felt like home. The property itself looked stunning upon pulling up. The landscaping complimented the home. The home was rather spacious and complimented by a beautiful backyard, covered patio, and the view of a beautiful pond. The owners informed me that the goal of Plein de Vie was to provide an intimate level of care that you wouldn't be able to get at larger assited livings or nursing homes. They will only be admitting 10 residents and providing a staff to resident ratio that ensures all residents receive exceptional care. Staff were attentive and made us feel like VIPs. Plein de Vie had a full schedule for their residents to enjoy and appeared to offer everything that we could hope for. Transportation, medication administration, incontinence care, housekeeping, and memory care activities to slow cognitive decline due to dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I could not say enough good things about this place. Looking forward to having them care for my father!
