My dad has been in Laketown Village. He is doing OK. He is trying to adjust to it. I've been there like three or four times, and everybody has been really helpful and nice. As far as we know everything's going well, and we don't have any complaints or anything. The room is really nice. It's nothing fancy, but it's clean. He is in a big room. It's really a room for two people, but he's the only one in there because they're not full capacity yet. We brought in his TV and his recliner, and we're trying to get him a hospital bed. The bed that they had in there is the one he is using right now.
The two times I went there, my dad was eating his meals and they looked pretty good. He hasn't complained about their food, and he said it's pretty good. They have activities. They had some kind of Mardi Gras thing. I noticed in his room they had puzzles and stuff that they tried to get him to do. They try to keep him engaged, which is good. They have an outside area that's really nice. It's like a courtyard where they can go sit outside and stuff like that. I've been out there, and that's a pretty nice little area for them. Their dining room is a little common area where they have a TV, a sofa, and then a bunch of chairs for them to sit and watch TV and stuff.

My stepdad is in Laketown Village. It's pretty good. I'm happy with it. He's in memory care and the staff is doing a good job. It was not real big. I liked that the memory care unit was smaller and I feel like the staff is very nice and attentive. There are some things I would like to change though. They need more staff members, and they have to clean the place a little more. They have activities; he's not a participant though. I think they can improve on the cosmetics of it, mopping it more and fixing things that are worn out to make it more pleasant for them. They have a patio and a nice foyer where they have singing and music. I don't think we're getting as much as we'd like for the money we're spending.

When I did a tour of Laketown Village, I liked that there seemed to be a little more flexibility as far as how they allow people to live in memory care versus assisted living. I was kind of hoping that we might be able to eventually get into assisted living, but I'm not sure at this point. I'm just hoping that he can do okay with memory care, but I seriously considered their facility. They had some damage from the hurricane. It's not as big, and as spacious, but it was still very, very nice.
It is also out in Kenner, which is New Orleans suburb, but it doesn't have as much space as the other facility because it's not as far out. They do have a nice area, but the feeling wasn't as open, like almost-country feel like, where you can look out and see the expanse of grass and stuff like that.

I visited Laketown recently. I was very impressed with the loving care the staff exhibited. They were effective in caring for the elderly in a supportative manner. The activities they were involved in were simple enough for them , yet were entertaining. I found the facility very clean and everyone I met had a pleasant attitude. The rooms were clean a spacious. I would not hesitate to place someone in their care should it become nessary.

When I first toured Brookdale, it felt more like a resort than a nursing facility. My father was a resident at Brookdale Kenner for several months before he passed. I can't express how happy I was with the facility. The staff was very friendly, attentive and caring. We had always tried to avoid putting him into a nursing home, but once we found Brookdale, I wish we had done it sooner. I compared several options and facilities, and found Brookdale to be the best one for pricing, safety, security, care, meals, activities and attention. Brookdale offered activities like crafts, games, exercise, live music and enclosed gardens and a covered patio for the memory care patients. The meals were excellent with a good variety to suit my father's appetite.

Brookdale Kenner was a smaller community that seemed more crowded than the other places we visited. It was an older place that wasn't as clean, but the staff was nice, and it was overall a nice community. They had outside areas to walk around in, and the location was good. The parking was OK, and the rooms were nice. They had a band playing there at the time we were visiting, and the residents were all watching. We saw the residents on the memory care floor were on the dining room sitting around with staff taking care of them.
