The Cottages at The Glen

425 East Flournoy Lucas Road, Shreveport, LA 71115
Overview of The Cottages at the Glen

The Cottages at the Glen provides nursing home, assisted living, independent living, memory care, and skilled nursing in Shreveport, LA. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while the resident keeps a private living space.

Independent living suits residents who want private living with community services and no daily care. Skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, including a resident living with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.

Several care levels are available in one community. As a resident’s needs grow, the resident may be able to remain at The Cottages at the Glen rather than move to a different community.

The community has 60 beds. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 42 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time assigned to each resident.

Payment options include Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. Medicare can cover short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a long stay, and private pay means paying directly for care.

The Cottages at the Glen may be a good fit for a resident who wants private living without daily care, needs help with everyday tasks, requires licensed nursing care, or may need secured memory care as needs change over time.
