Overview of Tapestry Senior Living Lakeshore

Tapestry Senior Living Lakeshore sits at 2516 W. Lakeshore Dr in Tallahassee, about 3 miles out from downtown. The walk score here lands at 45 out of 100, which means it’s somewhat walkable. You could probably grab a few things on foot, but for most errands, you’re going to want a car or the community’s transportation help.

The building has 160 beds split between studio and one-bedroom units, running from 340 up to 495 square feet. This is both an assisted living and memory care community, so there’s support for residents who need a higher level of daily care alongside those with memory-related needs. Licensed nurses and CNAs are on staff around the clock, and respite care is available too, which is handy for families who just need short-term coverage. Staff speak English and Spanish, so language barriers shouldn’t get in the way of good communication with residents and their families.

There’s a real activity lineup here; residents can take cooking classes, join dance sessions, hit exercise classes, sit down for cards or games, get their hands dirty in the garden, or catch a movie night. Music programs, yoga, shopping trips, and group outings round things out. Pets are welcome too, which matters more than people sometimes expect when someone’s leaving behind a longtime companion to move into a new place.

On the financial side, Tapestry accepts Medicaid, which opens the door for a lot of families who couldn’t otherwise afford this level of care. State inspectors who review this kind of community typically look at things like medication management, staff training and credentials, environmental safety, and how well resident rights get protected day to day. Those are the standard categories regulators check across every assisted living facility in Florida, not anything unique to this one.

Put it all together and you get a community built around two things at once: structured, round-the-clock care for residents who need it, and a packed activity schedule for people who still want full days. That combination, plus Medicaid acceptance, makes Tapestry a realistic option for a wider range of families than a lot of private-pay-only communities can serve.

Overview of Brookdale Centre Pointe Boulevard

Brookdale Centre Pointe Boulevard is a memory care community in Tallahassee, FL. The community is in the Melody Hills neighborhood and provides a secure setting with supervision for people living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia. Its 38-bed size and memory care setting may be a good fit for someone who needs dementia support and prefers a smaller community where staff and residents can get to know each other. The starting price for memory care is $7,260, giving families an initial figure for financial planning.

Respite care provides short stays, which can suit a family caregiver who needs to travel or recover. Staff are present around the clock, and the community is wheelchair accessible for residents who use wheelchairs. A salon and barber shop, library, game room, courtyard, garden, porch, screened lanai and walking paths give residents places for personal care, reading, games and outdoor time. Pets are allowed, so a resident may keep a pet while living at the community.

A Walk Score of 47 out of 100 places the area in a car-dependent setting, meaning most errands require a car or a ride; residents who no longer drive would need transportation for typical errands. Transportation is available through the community. Medicare is accepted as a payment option, giving families using that coverage a source to consider when planning costs. Angel Hardee serves as the administrator, and Brookdale Senior Living Communities operates the community.

Starting Price $7,260/Month
