Join the Family

Home is not a place- it’s a feeling.

Experience home at Lakeside- a place of love and life, warmth and friendship, laughter and smiles. With around 70 residents in total, our community is small and close-knit. 

Every person, whether resident, staff or family member, knows each other by name. We share life stories, jokes and banter like every family does.

We’re proud of our mutually-supportive bond with the Richmond community- teaming up for charity drives, inviting them to our events and attending theirs. Our residents love spending time with the younger generations, and savor the feeling of community belonging.

Not a Nursing Home

We pride ourselves on being a uniquely vibrant senior community- and not a nursing home. Some of the things that set us apart are:

Confidently Compliant

We have an impeccable record with the state regulation bodies because our residents’ safety & wellness are paramount.

Staff that Stay

Many of our staff members have been here for well over a decade- developing genuine, long-lasting friendships with our seniors.

Richmond Associates

Being an active part of the Richmond community keeps our residents feeling as young as their community friends.

Recently Renovated

Our campus is now more beautiful and comfortable than ever with refurbished rooms, comfy common spaces and landscaped courtyards.
