The Best Nursing Home Communities in Tangipahoa Parish, LA

"My mother will be moving into Christwood, and she's going to be in independent living. I like the fact that it is so welcoming. It offers a buddy system right off the bat so that my mom can learn how to get around and meet people. It has tons of activities for her. For my mother, they have Bridge, singing, dancing, acting, choir, and writing, the things she's most interested in. We had lunch there. They have several places, and we ate in the cafe and it was delicious. The food was very good. The staff was super friendly and super helpful. It was beautiful, clean, organized, and easy to get around."

"My mother was admitted here and was having acute dementia and we had Power of Attorney. I was notified confidentially (due to fear of losing her job ) by one of her caregivers within the facility that she witnessed my mother being sexually assaulted by another resident. After questioning my mother, my worst fears came true as my mother was able to recall that this did occur on multiple occasions. I quickly transferred my mother out of this facility and called a meeting with the Director of nursing and the nurse manager regarding these incidents. Myself and my fiancée’, upon confronting this, my severely demented mother consented to this, although she was very confused to the point where she didn’t understand that what happened to her what was wrong! But she was able to recall that this residents had AIDS! After I became upset and explained this to the DON, she DID advise me that my mothers physician was notified by telephone. However, when I requested for my mothers sexual assault to be reported to the police , I was advised that that would not be happening!!!After receiving my mother’s medical records., it was very clear that not only was my mother’s doctor not notified, my mother being raped was not even documented! It sickens me that even something as severe as this is hidden from family and MD’s! If you love your family at all, pls do NOT use this place!!!!! They should be in prison! I will never heal from the trauma this place has caused my family!"

"Good Samaritan Nursing home is really doing their job in taking care of him. My friend does not even want to leave the place. He had been there for some time. I am just having problems now in working the insurance for him but the place is good and he is treated well. I am currently looking for an assisted living facility since he's getting okay. I think that he can move to an assisted living. "

"We moved my mom to Heritage Manor of Mandeville 3 weeks ago. We chose it because it's a small facility. The staff is great. They are right there all the time. They have bingo games, puzzles, and crafts. They have a courtyard. The parking lot is kind of small. But other than that, everything's great."

"We did not like Trinity Trace Community Care Center. They weren't there enough for my father and they didn't give him enough therapy. The food was OK, but some of it was not. The physical appearance of the facility was nice, but the coffee machines and the ice cream machines were always broken. He'd press the red button and they'd come in a half an hour later. Many times, they just were sitting in the cafeteria talking, or on the phones and laughing. I'd have to go out into the cafeteria to go get someone."

"My mom is at Pontchartrain Health Care Center. So far, I've been very pleased with it. They're good staff. The people seem like they care about the patients. She has only been there a short time, but we are pleased with it. The food is okay. She's not making any complaints about it. They have activities and everything for them. I would commend the staff very highly."
