The single-story, 92-bed community sits at 203 Rue Fontaine and is operated by Senior Solutions Mgmt Group. Walk Score puts the neighborhood at 36, somewhat walkable, so a few errands can be done on foot but most trips still mean getting in a car.

Outside, landscaped walking paths wind through the grounds around a central courtyard. Pets are welcome for residents unwilling to leave a longtime companion behind.

Indoors, residents have an arts and crafts area, a TV lounge, and a library to fill the day. On-site therapy options mean residents don’t necessarily need to leave the building for certain rehabilitation needs, and respite care gives families a short-term option when they need coverage without a long-term commitment. Three decades in the same location, paired with larger-than-typical suites and dedicated outdoor space, points to a community built for residents who want room to settle in and stay.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Louisiana

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Louisiana?

Assisted living in Louisiana supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Louisiana?

Assisted living in Louisiana is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Louisiana Medicaid cover assisted living?

Louisiana Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Louisiana) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 117 assisted living facilities in Louisiana. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Louisiana?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Louisiana, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Louisiana?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
