Who are you searching for?
Residential care homes in New Orleans may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. New Orleans care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.
Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in New Orleans, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.
We are also serving Residential Care Home facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Black Pearl, Broadmoor and Holy Cross.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Gretna.
Residential Care Home
My mother was only here for one day. There was only one caregiver on duty during the day, and because she is not mobile, she needed more attendants. I really appreciated that they called me and were honest about this. The people were very open and friendly and all the other residents seemed happy right when you walked in the door. My mom is currently on the waiting list for another community that is owned by the same woman.
My mom lived five years with me, just over 1.5 years in a medium-size memory care facility and then the last five months of her life in this lovely and loving home. They kept her protected and very well cared for until she reached her natural end of life, which we deeply appreciate, especially during this time. The staff, led by [name removed], is very attentive to the residents care, while maintaining the cleanliness of the home exactly the way you'd hope for your loved one. They were sensitive and responsive to me and my family members, keeping us in touch and informed. I cannot overstate my praise and gratitude. I do, without the slightest reservation, recommend this care home.
My father was one of the first residents in this home and we were only there for 16 days, but we loved the staff. They worked so hard to keep everything clean and beautiful. They were so kind to us. I was so glad that my father was with such wonderful people when he passed away.
