Lake Park Residential Care

Lake Park Residential Care sits at 2075 Ripley St in Lake Station, Indiana and has been managed by Joelynn Miller Johnson since August 2008, with Tanya Bryant as the Director of Nursing, and you'll find it's a place where adults 55 and older can live with support in many different ways, since they've got assisted living, nursing home services, independent living, continuing care, and memory care for those who need it, and they even have both home care and respite care, so they're set up to help with a range of needs, and you don't have to worry much about meals because meal service is part of the daily routine, and you'll also find a community room and other indoor common areas for social time and activities, where staff help keep things moving, and there's always something going on to help folks feel involved. Staff are awake 24 hours to help with emergencies or simple needs like help moving from a bed to a wheelchair, and they can support folks who need non-ambulatory care or help monitoring diabetes, since they'll help track blood sugar and insulin and give out medication, though for incontinence you do need to be able to handle it yourself. The building holds 151 residential care beds and has room for people who are low-income or even homeless, especially those adults in Indiana coping with severe mental health challenges, because the whole setup focuses on care for community, and thanks to support from the Legacy Foundation's Transform Lake County Fund, they're able to stretch a bit to serve people regardless of their ability to pay. When it comes to rules, smoking is allowed in private and public indoor areas, though that's something a person should know ahead of time, and for getting around, the facility provides complimentary transportation for residents. Tours can be set up where staff or current residents can answer questions, and the building's designed with easy access for visitors or potential residents. They do their best to follow state rules, with regular licensure checks and no substantiated complaints reported this year, and the facility is owned for-profit by South Lake Tricity RBAC Corporation and sits as a member of the Regional Care Group, so it's got ties to a larger network but stays close to the needs of the local community, always aiming for care, support, and a safe place to call home.
