The Best Nursing Home Communities in Livingston Parish, LA

"My dad is in Harvest Manor Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, and he loves it there. It's a great place. The people are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. From the physical therapy standpoint to all of his aides, the nurses, the nurse practitioners, everyone is pleasant and helpful and keeps you informed of what's going on. The place is very clean and modern and just well-maintained inside and outside. They have a beautiful patio. He loves the food. As far as what he has to eat, he's very happy with that. I really can't say anything bad. There is a beauty salon, and barber salon. There's a beautiful outdoor area for them to go in with chairs and a table. The dining room is nice and they offer music at night and in the mornings also. There's music at different times. They play bingo and other games. I've seen an area, and it's warm and you can go sit there and you feel welcome. It's an area where you can visit with your loved one and talk and watch television."

"The staff at Landmark South Nursing & Rehabilitation Center have all been very friendly and very helpful. It seems to be a beautiful facility. They restrict visitations, limit number of visitors, and require COVID screening upon entry. My mother-in-law says that they feed her well. I think the value for money is excellent."

"We choose Ascension Oaks because it is closer to family. They give good customer service. They are polite and keen to detail. The rooms are absolutely clean. They have activities. They go out shopping. They play bingo. I like the aesthetics, and the building is extremely clean. "

"The building is old but the care is 2nd to none. I spoke with the Director and he is the most caring person I have met. Activities, games, outing, they have it all. Staff is very nice and helpful. Just seems like they really care about the residents. It’s like a big family. Rooms are nice and you can’t beat the pricing. "

"Moved my Mother to OJCC in August 2016. The staff was tremendous in helping my Mother adjust to her new home, and they have been very attentive and caring to her needs thus far. The place is clean and neat, and provides a great atmosphere for my Mother. The shift nurses are always, always responsive to my calls and concerns, and seem to genuinely care about my Mother. I highly recommend OJCC. My Mother actually gets much better care here than she did in her previous Assisted Living residence. "

"When my mother was in the hospital the staff their told us that she will likely need nursing home placement. I was really skeptical and nervous about that but they provided a list of nursing homes in the area and said to go to nursing home compare on the medicare website to help me with my decision. I came across this facility and noticed that it had a 4 star rating. So, I called the facility and spoke with their staff. I told them about my concerns and they were very helpful and understanding. They went through their covid policies with us and assured us that she will be taken care of. It has almost been a year since she was admitted there but we have had no complaints and neither has my mother. I have gotten to see her almost everyday and she always tells me that she loves it there and she speaks very highly of the staff. "

"My father is in a skilled nursing unit for rehab at Flannery Oaks Guest House. It looks like he'll probably be going back home after that because he's progressing pretty well. He's been there for almost three weeks. The atmosphere is very friendly. Everyone seems to be very helpful. They are attentive to the needs of the residents, as far as administration. Any questions or things that I've needed, they responded and assisted me with those things. The first thing I noticed when I went in was how fresh and clean things were. I took a tour of the facility. Everything was very nice. Overall, it's a good environment. They were primarily assisting him with day-to-day activities as far as getting dressed and bathing, but the main deal is he's receiving rehab for his broken shoulder. He's walking better. They're kind of keeping him active and making sure he's able to function properly once he leaves. I haven't tried any of the food. However, my dad says it's OK. His room is nice. It's just him in the room by himself, so that's comforting for him and even myself when I go in to visit. It's a nice-sized room and it seems a bit comfortable. They keep them active."

"The rooms are very nice. Housekeeping does a fantastic job.The meals are varied and well-prepared. Arrangements can be made for you to dine with your love-one. The nurses and assistant nurses are excellent. There is no long wait for attention of residents. Kevin. One of the therapists is great with residents and dedicated to help them recovery. This is a great place. My husband was a resident there. If I need care, Tangi Pines would be a choice for me. It would take me forever to give them the accolades they deserve."

"Sherwood manor was a beautiful facility. The facilities seemed updated and modern. I believe it was built around 2000. One of the few things that stuck out in my mind was the waterfall with the fish. The residents seemed to all have private rooms. They weren't just seperated by a little curtain like some of the other homes I'd been to before.Some people had suites with dining rooms and bedrooms in the back. The staff were there to take care of the residents. Most of the staff were kind to the residents. There were a few staff members who did not act happy.My really enjoyed the food. The cooks were excellent. They even had a dietary manager. "

"My visit to The Care Center was pleasant. I visited this facility because my mother-in-law lived here before she passed on. She was no longer able to live alone in her apartment, so our family searched for an assisted living facility. Upon finding the facility we conducted a tour and decided that The Care Center would be the place where she would reside. The staff was friendly as well as personable. They learned her name very quickly to make her feel at home, as well as learning mine, my husband's, as well as my sister-in-law's name, being that we would be visiting her quite frequently. The amenities were good as well. The room itself was nicely sized since she would not be doing much moving around on her own. The facility itself was nice in that it provided exercise for her since she was unable to really move around a lot. My mother in law passed away months ago, but at least her transition was done around people who loved and cared for her the most. "

"The staff at The Guest House is very helpful and friendly. My dad is not really happy with the food there. I would give the physical therapists extra-high praise because they are all very good and very professional. They are always available when I need to talk to them about my dad’s progress. My dad has a private room, which has a half bathroom, in a hall where all of the people there need only short-time care. They have church services, bingo, and movie nights. They need to improve their food to make it nice and healthy. They are doing a lot of renovations. "

"I have actually visted this place twice as I am looking for a home for my mother with AZ. I was very impressed with how clean the place is and how the staff is very attune to the guests that live there. Three times guests have asked whomever I was speaking too questions and each time the staff assisted the guest before me. I was impressed because it shows how much they pay attention to their guests. "

"My mother is in Heritage Manor of Baton Rouge. My family and I have been very satisfied. The staff is attentive to my mother. I think she gets good care. She seems very content and very happy there. We're overall very pleased with the facility. She's on a restricted diet because she has a swallowing difficulty, but I think with the soft food and the thick liquids, that's been fine. We're limited because of the COVID, but several years ago we had a family member there, and we were very pleased with the facility. All was very neat and tidy, and with the COVID they're taking all the precautions they need. We feel very satisfied that she's getting what she needs and we're comfortable where she is. It's very well kept, and the facility looks nice to me inside and out. For what we get, it's a very fair cost. I'm very pleased with it. We did a lot of comparison shopping because we were out-of-pocket the first few months, and then Medicaid is paying for it, but I think the cost is very good for what we get definitely. We're very satisfied with the administrative staff as well as the nursing staff."

"My father was the primary contact person with the facility. The main thing I remember was that a few times, my grandfather would have an issue or get in trouble with the staff, and my father would not be notified. There were instances where one of the staff persons said that he was making racist remarks, which we're fairly certain is not true. Over time, it became apparent that it was mostly that staff member he was having difficulty with - everyone else was respectful and helpful.Overall, I think that I would recommend the facility. I know that the job is difficult, and the facility was pretty nice overall - it had plenty of rooms for events, stuff like that. "
