Assisted Living Communities in New Orleans, LA

"Roomy and comfortable. Support available 24/7. Delicious meals. Large handicap safe bathrooms. Attentive friendly RNs and care assistants. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. My family member has received excellent care"

"Facility is dirty. Residents are not attended to very well. Our family member was often left in bed and dirty. My family requested that our family member be taken out of bed and dressed everyday, which was completely ignored. Staff did not bath our family member often. SOme staff members were unprofessional and rude when you ask questions, especially the residents individual nurse. "

"We've decided to go with Westbank Lighthouse because it was small. The staff was friendly and answered all my questions. I liked that they have single rooms with only one person in a room. The room is a very good size, and it was also furnished. I saw everything they have, they had two living rooms, and in everything, there's just plenty of space. It was very clean."

"Rooms are clean. Communication with staff is near impossible. Don’t even attempt to get upper management on the phone. Staff very skilled at passing the blame whenever things don’t get done, which is constantly. A lot of theft also. Laundry incompetent, lost clothes, dirty laundry piles up for days. Understaffed and likely underpaid. DO NOT put your loved ones in this place especially since Commcare took over. Daily mass is the only plus but not worth the stunning incompetence and outright negligence of this place."

"My husband and I were both impressed with HomeLife in the Gardens, and we would not mind being there ourselves. The staff was competent, and the woman who was the director of the place was very accomplished. She had a good mix of what they have designed for their residents. The rooms were adequate and nicely put together. We saw people interacting with another, which was nice. It's not a very huge place, but it was OK. "

"I have been visiting a family friend at this facility for several months. I have visited this facility different times of the day and have consistently noticed how clean the facility was. The patient care and attention to the details of daily service within the facility is the exception, not the rule of what one could expect. Best regards Tommy"

"It was beautiful. It was nicer than our current home. I don't think that you could ask for more in a facility and all the people there were very kind. The staff during the tour was very kind, very understanding, and she took her time. I didn't feel rushed at all. I didn't see the exact rooms. I saw the public facilities, like where they do the activities and where they serve meals and all of that. We went down the residential hall, but I don't remember seeing an actual room. I saw a library, a therapy room where they do physical therapy, an area where they let the residents give parties and have social events, and a little reading room."

"Rooms are nice size and clean. Big windows lets lots of light in and caregivers are attentive and caring."

"Poydras Home is very close to our house. My daughter and I can walk there and we can visit my mom often. We also know other people whose parents are there. My mom will move there on October 16. They opened a brand new memory center with 11 rooms and staff which was very impressive. They were all very excited about the new program. There's green space, a secure garden and rubberized walkways. "

Peristyle Residences assisted living homes are located across New Orleans, Metairie and the West Bank. We provide aging seniors with the care they need in a comfortable, luxurious and secure setting. Our facilities provide 24 supervision to seniors who may no longer be able to safely live at home, but who do not require or want to live in an institutional setting such as a nursing home and large assisted living facility. We specialize in the care and support for seniors with special attention to aging-related conditions. Our small communities foster the development of sincere relationships between caregivers and residents. Our home is their home. We encourage families to decorate and furnish our private rooms and living areas with familiar items which are comforting and keep memories vivid. Peristyle Residences provide an array of stimulating activities in a setting that is more intimate than traditional nursing home and assisted living facilities. Music, pet therapy, card games, bingo, and art & crafts are but a few of the entertaining offerings provided by licensed professionals and senior caregivers at all our assisted living and memory care homes. Healthy meals are prepared on site and served hot. Our extensive menu is reviewed by a registered dietitian for proper nutrition.To learn more about this provider’s license and review other available state reports, please visit: Louisiana Deparment of Health Adult Residential Care Directory

"My grandmother has experienced both independent and dependent living. It is definitely a transition going from living on your own in your home to living in an assisted living space then to dependent but the staff and family support really helps! There is a lot to do and the apartments are really beautiful. While there are differences in the units that are dependent vs the ones that are independent, I was surprised to see how similar they are and how much space there is. Outside of no longer having a stove or dishwasher, the units are very similar to a standard apartment. There is a communal activity room that has a larger kitchen where residents can do cooking classes, as well as really good food available in the dining room or delivered to your room. Staff also will help with cleaning any dishes you may have made during the day. While no one wants to lose their independence, dependent living at Lambeth feels like a good combination of having your independence with extra hands! "

Fidelis Residential Care Homes is owned and operated by two Registered Nurses with over 35 years of ER and Senior Care experience. It was formed to provide affordable, safe, and comfortable living accommodations with 24-hour personal care for our elderly community without sacrificing the warm feeling of home. We view our homes as “the caring alternative to nursing homes and the intimate alternative to assisted living.” Family members and loved ones will get the attention and care that they deserve, but are not able to get in a large institutional facility. Regulated by the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, our small assisted living facilities may care for those individuals who, because of the ageing process or physical frailty, may no longer be able to live safely at home, but who do not need nor desire a more institutional setting, such as a skilled nursing facility. While many residents choose Fidelis simply because they want a smaller setting, others with physical limitations (such as difficulty walking, or those with medical conditions that require close monitoring) also thrive here. Some residents may have had recent hospital stays or are completing physical therapy after an injury or operation. Until complete recovery, additional service such as physical therapy or home health care can be arranged to assist them as needed.To learn more about this provider’s license and review other available state reports, please visit: Louisiana Deparment of Health Adult Residential Care Directory

"We went to Wynhoven Living Center. That's the only one I've checked out so far. I believe there's a waiting list, but I am not sure. They said they would call if there will be an opening. The staff seemed nice, the apartments were pretty nice, and there are a lot of elderly people like my mother. They pretty much have their own apartments. It's a one bedroom with a small kitchen and a bathroom. There are always shuttle boxes that take them to the stores or to doctor's appointments. They have a little area where they play Bingo. They take only thirty percent of your income, and it's pretty appealing to me. "

"I was able to tour Tranquil Living. They had shared rooms, and it was nice. It was perfect until I found another place that has private rooms. The rooms here weren't as large, everything was on a smaller scale, and they had more people. They also had nothing open, they were full. The staff there were very helpful and very informative. But they really couldn't tell me when they would have an opening, and I understood that. I would have worked with them if I didn't find the place we ended up choosing for my mom. There was no problem at all with it. I made a point to make sure I talked to everyone just to see if everything was good."
