Everything All In One Place
I am most impressed with the way Trustwell is set up like home. I love that there is 24-7 stay on hand and the staff is vetted. There are options for long term and respite care which most facilities do not have. I’m definitely going to refer Trustwell to some of the families I know that are looking for trusted and quality care.

Your willingness to refer us to other families means the world to us—we truly appreciate your trust and support.

Wonderful
Wonderful place. The staff in awesome. Everyone there is caring towards the residents. The food is great! Russ Place is an excellent choice for assisted living. My mother is happy there and I have peace of mind knowing she has someone around 24/7. A wonderful homey place to live if no longer able to live alone at home.

The best is Russ
My brother signed on the dotted line because of the cost. But he stays there because of the administrator and the staff. They make sure that he gets the medical care he needs and takes him to his appointments and check in on him everyday to make sure that he gets what he needs. You have to be buzzed in to get into the facility and you have to have a mask and your temperature is taken.

A Great Place To Be
The community has been cautious and about allowing outsiders in. They haven't had any cases of COVID in the community.
Russ Place is great at calling us twice a week to give us an update on our loved one.
My loved one was a home economics teacher in their former life. The food department, made menus to align with Route 66. They even had menus for each "restaurant" in the cities along the Route. This entertained the residents during this time and not being able to take the residents out of the community. This even educated the residents. There was even a card stock menu for the residents to keep as a memento.

Exceeding expectations
The facility is well kept, and friendly. The staff was amazing, the director went above and beyond helping us get our loved one moved in quickly during COVID. The room our loved one had was spacious and easy for him to move around in, he had no trouble getting in and out of it. He said there was plenty of food, it just wasn't spiced to his liking.

I have a relative that moved to Russ Place within the last 12 months. To say she is THRIVING is a gross understatement. She is a different person when I talk to her. There has been a big change since she lived alone. I believe being a part of a community has recharged her life. She has friends, she eats with others 3 times a day and enjoys many of the activities they offer. She feels safe when she goes to bed at night and knows if she needs anything someone will be there with the pull of a cord. I am so grateful for the care she receives that contributes to her overall wellbeing. My entire family is thankful for Russ Place!

I have first hand seen how amazing Russ Place is for our family and our community! They have such a superb staff that goes over and above for their residents! My family is so very pleased with the care they have received.
Russ Place feels like family.
You can feel the warmth when you walk in the door.
Thank you Russ Place. We are so thankful we found a place that gives us comfort to leave mom and know she is taken care of.

Life to their years
The staff really cares about the residents. Russ Place is like a big family where the residents look out for each other. Some have described it as a "Community Watch" just like you would have a "neighborhood Watch" in your subdivision. When a resident who doesn't show up for Bingo who normally is at the activity with bells on, the other Bingo Playing Residents will go to their apartments and check on them. The activities really do allow for the residents to THRIVE and add more "Life to their years" not just "Years to their lives!"

A Sad Has Been
Russ Place used to be.... This is what we hear all the time. You can see evidence of this in so many ways. It is really sad. It is still a decent facility, but you should look beyond the pretty face they put on recently for publicity photos. Complaints about problems have brought little more than comments about rising costs. Services offered are underfunded and understaffed. Residents have been asked to have patience, told that things will change. The sad truth is that we have become disillusioned beyond any but the last shred of hope. The only reason I give it any credit at all is that they do have good people here. A new director has been recently hired. However, unless the corporation takes an actual interest in restoring this facility to something closer to its former glory, I'm afraid it will cease to even be known as what used to be and become one of those places which makes people shift their eyes and shake their heads when it is mentioned. That's a shame, a real shame.

One of the most attractive facilities I've seen. It was really a nice atmosphere and the people seem real friendly, It felt like a home in a way and not like a nursing home. I highly recommend it.

Tips for evaluating your community options
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Louisiana regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Louisiana regulations for Assisted Living.
