The Best Memory Care Communities in East Baton Rouge County, LA

"I did a tour of Garden View Assisted Living - Baton Rouge. I liked everything about it. It was good, but my mom just liked the other one better. The staff members were very understanding and informative. They were excellent. It was just well-maintained with lots of amenities. They have an exercise room and a salon. They had a nice courtyard and outdoor area, all that stuff. It's close to our family, and close to the hospital."

"My mother has been in St James Place for less than a month now. So far, it's been outstanding. They have worked very closely with us, from my initial visit up to now. There's not a single negative thing that we could say. It's been great. Her room is just a single-person room, and she has no roommate, so it's a private room. I don't recall any room options that they have in the memory care section, but I like the security of it, and that's important to us. We have access to her, not just at the window or on the cellphone, and we can visit her twice a week. Their prices are on the high side, but they were willing to negotiate with us to help meet our budget."

"Magnolia Brook on Siegen Lane is a very nice and hospitable facility. They are top-notch. The staff is very nice, very friendly, and very open. My dad said the meals are good. His room is very spacious and beautiful on the inside, with a nice exterior also. They take the seniors out to participate in a lot of activities like bingo. They have a beautiful dining room and they all eat together. They are a bit pricey, but I think that you always pay for what you get. It's worth it since it's a very nice, warm, and positive environment. Seniors will be comfortable, happy, and will be attended to very well by their staff."

"I went to visit. It was excellent. It's very big. The staff was very professional and friendly. We are going back to try the food next Thursday. The dining area was very nice. It was more like a restaurant-looking area. While we were there, they were doing flower arranging. They had a history class going, and they had an area with a piano. They do movies. It was very nice. The room was very nice. It was like a little apartment. It had a kitchen area with what you need. It was just a little nicer than the other place."

"We will be moving Mom into The Pearl at Jamestown. It's clean, it's bright, and it smelled good. The staff was extremely nice. Everybody there was friendly. The rooms could be a little bigger, but they're not bad (they're enough). The atmosphere was real homey. The sales director had gone out of her way helping us answering questions. My wife tasted the food today, too, and she said it was decent."

"The Claiborne at Shoe Creek had a welcoming atmosphere. During the visit, I only interacted with the lady giving us the tour, and she was understanding and informative. The amenities are not all on one level. They have a gym, salon, library, theater, and restaurant style dining. The upkeep of the place is excellent. The location is convenient to our family. It's not really close to the hospitals, but they do medical travels and stuff, and it's in proximity to existing physicians."

Small Setting, Big Difference, 24 Hour Care Fidelis Residential Care Homes are the caring alternative to nursing homes. We provide high-quality assisted living senior care through close supervision, activities, quality meals and assistance with activities of daily living in a pleasant, intimate setting for a limited number of residents. Fidelis Residential Care Homes: Owned and Operated by 3 Registered Nurses with over 55 years of combined experience Highest Caregiver-to-Resident Ratios 24-hour Protective Oversight and Assistance Screened, Trained and Experienced Caregivers Private and Semi-Private Rooms Available The Personal Care Home has become the preferred model of care in assisted living. The intimate setting and limited number of residents allows for each caregiver to become personally familiar with the capabilities, limitations, needs and personality of each resident. Not only does this result in a more comfortable, supportive and respectful home for each resident, it translates into better protective oversight and assistance. It also allows for residents to better acclimate to their surroundings and their caregivers. Room (private or semi-private accommodation) Room furnishings (as needed; dresser, nightstand, lamp, chair, bed) 24 Hour Supervision and Monitoring (protective oversight) Bathing Assistance Dressing, Grooming Assistance Ambulation/Transferring Supervision Medication Supervision Socialization/Activities/Entertainment 3 Meals and Snacks Daily Linens/bedding Laundering of machine washable clothing/linens Housekeeping PERSONAL CARE IN COMFORTABLE, MORE INTIMATE SURROUNDINGS Every resident receives personal attention and assistance tailored to his or her specific need, as well as one-on-one encouragement to maintain as many of his or her abilities and as much independence as possible. No resident is "lost in the crowd" or left behind a closed apartment door to fend for themselves. Qualified caregivers provide daily meals, housekeeping, medications supervision, and personal assistance. We also take the time to communicate with families to ensure that they are well informed of all care issues. At Fidelis, caring for a small number of residents means greater attention to the care needs of our residents, and greater peace of mind for everyone. Caregivers notice subtle changes in residents quickly and are able to alert physicians or family members of warning signs and any other changes. Caregivers are always nearby and residents need not rely only on emergency pull cords or similar devices to call for help from a distant nurse's station. Each resident is cared for and treated like family. Those with memory loss or moderate, non-aggressive dementia are also well suited to a more intimate environment. Residents easily become familiar with the small setting, consistent staff and a limited number of other residents around them.To learn more about this provider’s license and review other available state reports, please visit: Louisiana Deparment of Health Adult Residential Care Directory

"I toured and met some of the residents there and some of the staff. They seemed like they were nice. They were preparing for an activity that day that they had scheduled. They were very upbeat, very positive people. They showed me a one-bedroom and it's all one level. So, you didn't have to get on an elevator, which I kind of liked."
