About this community

New Era Assisted Living in Lakeland, Florida, provides assisted living and assistance with residents’ daily care needs. The community’s own materials say staff learn residents’ preferences and follow familiar routines, with opportunities for interaction each day. They also identify a visiting physician; a separate profile describes the visits as biweekly and personal assistance as available around the clock. The official site describes pass-code access at entrance and exit doors, fire drills and security-camera monitoring as safety measures.

A third-party profile additionally reports a memory-support unit, respite care and hospice care. It says the memory-support unit serves people living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. That profile also lists medication management, an emergency call system, wheelchair accessibility and staff on site around the clock. The community’s own pages do not describe these services in detail, so they are details reported by the separate listing.

Residents can choose private or semi-private rooms. A separate profile describes suite accommodations in a single-storey building. The community lists three meals and snacks each day and says special diets can be accommodated. The cook accepts meal suggestions, and seasonal fruit is served.

It also mentions access to a stocked library, in addition to library outings.

Activity areas include a large common area and a gazebo used for barbecues. The community’s activity description names morning low-impact exercise, visits from musicians, videoke, Bible studies and Gospel sing-alongs.

The listed options include movement, music, creative activities, games and faith-related gatherings.

Scheduled outings include trips to malls, libraries, thrift stores and restaurants. Scheduled transportation is offered, and a separate profile identifies medical appointments as one use.

New Era Retirement Living provides a welcoming and well-maintained environment for its residents. Lorraine is exceptionally caring, kind, and attentive to everyone in her care. She works closely with management and maintenance to ensure the facility is well kept, clean, and comfortable at all times. Her dedication truly shows in the quality of care and the overall atmosphere of the

I came by yesterday to pick up mom for Thanksgiving. I wanted to say the paint, curtains, decor, furniture make such a difference!! It really looks nice!! I hope the rooms can someday be redone too. Mattresses, bedding etc. I'm sure it's a progression & money plays a big part. New Era has been so dreary, dark, not the cleanest & sad for SOOOOO long. Honestly, it's one reason Ive always wanted to move my mom but the staff has always been good to us & we can't afford other places. New era definitely has potential. Thank you so much again for brightening it up :-) I pray things continue to go up…

A lots of positive changes in this facility. I would like the opportunity to congratulate Mrs. Amy and her team for all the hard work, time and effort she put in this facility. Thank you

I’ve seen a real difference in this facility over time. There’s been noticeable progress and continued improvement in both the environment and the overall atmosphere. It’s clear that the team is investing their resources into enhancing the quality of care, the comfort of the residents, and the facility itself. The staff are positive, supportive, and create a genuine sense of community that makes this a warm and welcoming place to be.

The facility administrator Miss Cocker was fantastic. The facility looked amazing on the inside and outside. Maintenance crew was doing a fantastic job keeping up with everything. The facility was clean smelled good and the staff was very attentive and informative. I definitely recommend this facility to anyone who may be in need.
