Memory Care Communities in Covington, LA

"I did an in-person tour of Avanti Senior Living at Covington. It was a fairly good visit. They're a little bit more booked up than the other places that I visited. I guess the population that I saw was older, in the 80 kind of range, than the others. It was a very nice facility, and the staff was accommodating. They could only show me a 2-bedroom that was going to come open or available in January. The other parts were actually very good, accommodation wise. The 2-bedroom was big enough, but the options weren't quite as good there. They had a full operating kitchen. Avanti was a little smaller than the others, and there's a little less availability of facilities. They combined assisted living with independent living."

"I visited The Trace in Covington and looked at an apartment in their assisted living facility. It was a very nicely maintained facility, and they were very nice people. The room I saw was big, and the place was very well-maintained. The dining area was also very big. The parking area was very adequate and had plenty of parking."

"The rooms at Brookdale Mandeville were small but adequate. They had great food. They had people that come in and events. They were really good. "

"Everything at Summerfield of Hammond has been outstanding. My parents like the food and there are multiple activities every day. The staff is very caring, friendly, and shows genuine concern for my parents. I have no complaints at all and neither do my parents. They have a 1-bedroom apartment with a completely accessible bathroom, a full size refrigerator/freezer, a microwave oven, a sink, air conditioning in each room, ceiling fan in each room, and a nice walk-in closet. They have regular meals prepared every day, but they have an extensive menu, which they call the bistro menu. So, if you don’t like the main meal they have prepared, you can order off the bistro menu."

"My mom is staying at Restoration Senior Living. It's only five minutes from my house, so their location is great. Also, I like that it's a very friendly, very clean place, and it's only two years old. The staff has really taken good care of her, and they're very accessible -- like you can talk to them and ask them questions. They're very helpful and just great people. They have a hair salon, manicures, and all kinds of games and activities that they play. They have arts and crafts and church services, as well -- whether you're Protestant or Catholic -- and a whole lot of different things. My mom has been very pleased with the food, too. She said it's very good."

"The people we interviewed were great. After we saw this community, we were very pleased and didn't need to look any further. The staff is excellent. We saw everything and had an extensive tour, and the lady who coordinated everything was excellent. The rooms were fine, they were very clean. They had us for lunch and the food was excellent. They would do your laundry, they had housekeeping and everything that's necessary if you would stay there. They had all the amenities."
