More about Avanti Senior Living At Lafayette
The work sits in a residential building licensed for 101 residents at 5522 Ambassador Caffery Parkway in Youngsville, where you monitor care plans, medication passes, vitals, assessments, and state compliance, and help train teammates along the way. Shifts in the known posting are part-time and on-site with rotating weekends, and pay runs weekly. Residents use spaces like Taste Restaurant, Savor Lounge, a family room, and a Mind Body Strength wellness area; care is framed around personalized plans, medication management, and housekeeping rather than acute skilled nursing. Lafayette itself runs about 13% below the national cost of living, with a flat state income tax near 3% and compact-license recognition if you are moving in. Pay rates are not posted publicly, so you would need to ask what the role pays before you decide.
Holistic, personalized care plans with medication management and everyday support services in assisted living and memory care.
