The Best Nursing Home Communities in De Soto County, LA

"Garden Park is the gold standard in nursing and rehab care. FULL STOP. The rehab therapists are knowledgable, fun and inspirational. The activity department is phenomenal, caring and has so many things to offer. The nursing staff is top drawer and hard working. My aunt’s last few years were so much better than they would have been because she was at Garden Park."

"I went to Spring Lake from Willis-Knighton following shoulder surgery. I got far better nursing care at Spring Lake than at WK. The physical and occupational therapy was excellent! The staff was friendly and accommodating, you could not ask for better. "

"As a medic, it is my job to go into nursing facilities and assess patients when there is an emergency. Each nursing facility has its' own story to tell, but the one at Booker T. Washington has a happy ending.At first glance, Booker T. Washington Nursing Center may not look like a "beautiful" place. The truth is, it's not "beautiful" from the eye's view. What's beautiful is what you see when you walk in. This facility has spent more time and money paying their employees than decorating their walls. As a result, they provide excellent customer service and patient care. I highly recommend Booker T. Washington Nursing Center! "

"Pierremont Healthcare Center is a good place to have your family member to reside and have around the clock care. My mother is a resident here and she loves the nice friendly staff They also have several activities so the residents have something to do."

"My mother will be moving back into Heritage Manor West. She was in there for physical therapy before, and she liked it, so she wanted to go back there into the nursing home. She liked the people there, and she liked the service there. She liked everything. The food was good, the nurses were good, and the aides were good. Their staff was excellent. The place was clean, and it looked brand new. They had activities, like card games and painting."

"My mother had stayed at Colonial Oaks Guest Care. When she was there, she was very content, and I was very happy. They were excellent. As a matter of fact, she loved their food and everything. There's nothing to complain about. The people working there were very thoughtful, and very intensive with the people and very caring. They were on top of everything. It was very clean, and it doesn't smell like the average nursing home. It was more like a little hotel efficiency thing. The rooms were really nice. They could have the food either in their room or in the cafeteria, which ever they would prefer. Their dining room was very clean. It was spotless. I would rate it a 5+. "

"My father has moved into Riverview Care Center. I haven't actually visited it yet. We are doing all of these long distance, and I don't know if it's going to be his permanent place or not. We are trying to get him stabilized and get a sense of what his long-term needs are going to be, but I feel like it's a good place. They have been responsive and cooperative. They have done a good job communicating with us. My father has been very positive about it. He tells me how kind the staff is and how responsive everybody is. He has definitely been singing their praises, so we feel good. We feel like he is in a good, safe place, that's why we're pushing to have him be there. The staff has been very helpful, very responsive, and communicative, which is good because we're long distance. My father likes it. He obviously would like to move closer to one of us, my sister or myself, but right now he just has immediate needs that need to be met. He is content, that part is very positive, so I would say good things about them. They have been great. They have been really, really good, and especially helpful navigating Medicaid, Medicare, and all of that. A lot of the activities have been curtailed, obviously, because of COVID restrictions. However, I believe they are just now starting those. I don't know what they are, but somebody calls weekly just to give general updates. I call them if I need something with a specific person, but usually the same person calls every Friday just to talk about how he has done. They're continuing to be a COVID-free facility, so that's comforting, too."
