Assisted Living & Memory Care · New Orleans, LA

Overview of SummerHouse Vista Shores

SummerHouse Vista Shores offers assisted living and memory care in New Orleans, LA. Assisted living provides help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps a private living space; memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. With both care levels on one campus, the community may be a good fit for a resident whose needs may grow over time.

The community has 162 beds and offers studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom housing. A studio provides a single private space, while a two-bedroom layout can suit a couple moving together or someone who wants a companion. SummerHouse Vista Shores is in the Filmore neighborhood, and pets are allowed, so a resident may bring a pet.

A Walk Score of 31 places the area in a car-dependent setting, meaning most errands require a car or a ride. For a resident who no longer drives, routine trips outside the community would therefore require transportation support.
