Assisted Living in Ft. Myers, Florida
"We have promised ourselves that we shall always treat our residents as we would our own loved ones. Nothing less than our best will do."
Assisted Living and Alzheimer's Care in Ft. Myers, Florida
This is a simple promise that the staff at Emeritus at The Lakes — and throughout Emeritus Senior Living communities — has shared since 1998, when our community first opened its doors. It's a simple promise to be compassionate and kind, understanding and respectful — a promise to become extended family to the seniors entrusted in our care and to our retirees who have chosen our community for its active lifestyle.
Right at Home
Set on beautifully landscaped grounds with a courtyard and lovely gardens, Emeritus at The Lakes enjoys an outstanding reputation as one of the premier senior living communities in the South Ft. Meyers area. Centrally located close to I-75 and Highway 41, our community — one of the newest in the city — offers 153 apartments on three floors. Here our residents — in many cases, with their pets — enjoy retirement living. Yet should you need a helping hand from our warm and caring staff, we also offer complete assisted living services, tailor-made to your needs. Our services focus on wellness to help you maintain your health, so you can live as independently as possible.
Join Their Journey — Alzheimer's and Dementia Care
Our community also offers an innovative memory care program, Join Their Journey®, for seniors affected by Alzheimer's or dementia. Because your family's experience will be unlike any other, our goal is to get to know you and your loved one, so that we can offer support and solutions for your individual situation. We "join the journey" of your loved one by recognizing individuality, encouraging choices and allowing residents the dignity to live in a secure, personalized and familiar setting that feels comfortable for them.
New friends, new beginnings
With its family-friendly atmosphere, Emeritus at The Lakes feels like home the moment you walk through the doors. Our common areas — including our lovely dining room, library and expansive crystal clean sparkling outdoor pool — give residents and their loved ones the opportunity to get to know one another. We also offer a wide range of activities each month, including socials, hobby groups and community outings. Emeritus at The Lakes is conveniently located in an urban area, yet close to Sanibel Island, Lakes Park, Ft. Myers Beach and several golf and country clubs. The airport is also within easy driving distance. Several medical facilities are also nearby, including Health Park, The New Gulf Coast Hospital, many doctors offices and a nursing home rehabilitation facility if ever needed.
