Overview of Vermilion Health Care Center

Financially positioned with a 35% profit margin that generated a $3.1 million net income in 2023, Vermilion Health Care Center is a 120-bed facility that focuses primarily on extended care, registering an extensive 796-day average length of stay. The provider maintains a 78% local occupancy rate in a rural setting, with Medicaid recipients accounting for 83% of the resident census. Business reports show the facility reinvests 43.9% of its incoming revenue into direct operational payroll, supporting secure memory care units, long-term nursing, and post-acute physical rehabilitation lines.

A review of state monitoring registries places the home at the top of regional health inspection rankings, backed by strong clinical wellness scores and low deficiency counts. Direct daily nursing time tracks at 4 hours and 25 minutes per resident, ranking 38th highest across Louisiana, with certified nurse assistant hours running 14% ahead of the state baseline. On the compliance side, oversight files note only 14 total citations over a three-year window, averaging 3.5 per inspection, which runs beneath the state baseline.

The facility holds zero history of federal admission payment freezes and carries a low $6,000 fine record, with its most recent September 2024 review logging only minor care plan and resident rights paperwork points. Clinical charts indicate high performance across permanent resident care domains, tracking zero cases of documented depression alongside below-average rates for major injury falls, skin pressure ulcers, unexpected weight loss, and functional physical decline.

Older adults looking for highly rated rural Medicaid or Alzheimer’s care can use these public health tracking data to check out the home’s recent history. Because the official tracking documentation records consistent daily nurse staffing depth, top-tier state inspection rankings, and exceptional long-term physical wellness scores alongside a clear history of low financial penalties, the paperwork describes an organized care environment.

Overview of Landmark South Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Landmark South Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits on Jefferson Hwy in Baton Rouge’s Saint George neighborhood, about 15.6 miles from downtown and 2.7 miles from Rise Community Hospital. The facility has been running for 41 years. It is a 144-bed nursing home offering nursing care, hospice care, memory care, and palliative care, administered by James Smith. The Walk Score is 38, so a car handles most of the practical logistics for families and visitors.

One hundred forty-two of the 144 beds are occupied, a 93.8% fill rate. The average stay is 268 days, nearly nine months, which tells you this community carries a significant long-stay population alongside whatever short-term rehabilitation volume passes through. Total nursing care runs 3 hours and 52 minutes per resident per day; registered nurses account for 16 minutes of that directly.

The clinical program covers wound care and short-term rehabilitation on the services side, with physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and respiratory therapy all available on-site. Memory care and hospice round out the specialty offerings. The facility runs a Nurse Aide Training Program on-site, which is a reasonable signal about investment in the nursing pipeline.

An Active Resident Council operates, and meals are served in an on-site dining room. Gardens, a rehabilitation gym, and a hydrotherapy spa are on the amenity list. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted.

The facility is a member of the Louisiana Nursing Home Association. State inspections have centered on infection prevention and control, dietary and food service, resident rights, and medication management.

For residents who need nursing care, wound management, memory care, or hospice in a high-occupancy, long-established Baton Rouge facility, Landmark South covers a wide clinical range under one roof.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does Louisiana Medicaid cover memory care?

Louisiana Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

How do I choose the right memory care community 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.
