Neighborhood Environment

The community at Lakeside Park is designed to be like home, while providing security and simplicity so important for the residents’ health and well being.

In a typical floor plan, six to eight residents comprise a “neighborhood,” each with their own comfortable bedroom (and private bath) that opens onto a living room shared by all. This design strategy replaces long, hospital-like corridors with the hallmarks of a familiar, family environment.

We encourage families to decorate the resident’s room with familiar furniture, knick-knacks, hobby items, artwork, and family pictures.

Lakeside Park maintains a secured environment while offering many opportunities to experience the touchstones of everyday life, such as watching children play in nearby Lake Merritt Park or taking a stroll outside in a gated patio and garden.

Each "Neighborhood" has six to eight residents
and opens onto the activities area.
