3 Assisted Living Communities in Kenner, Louisiana

I toured the Nouveau Marc in Kenner, and it was very nice. The staff was very nice. The apartment was very well-designed, the layout was very nice, and it was very roomy. For amenities, they had a common room, a large activity room, and an area where they had exercises.

We chose Laketown Village for my father because they had a vacant room right next to the dining room. You only have to walk about eight feet, which is a benefit for him because he can barely walk. They have an on-site retired chef, so they have great food. They were very friendly and cooperative during the visit. My father integrated right away in the first week, and he started doing their fun activities. They go out in the afternoons, they took them out for lunch, and he's been to bingo. It's very low cost.

My dad has been in Brookdale Kenner for a week. They've been wonderful and very helpful. I would recommend them. The director is wonderful, and my dad is enjoying it there.

Brookdale Kenner was beautiful, well-kept, really nicely decorated, and immaculate. The people were wonderful. My mother is a stickler for gardening and curb appeal, and it’s such a shame that Brookdale doesn’t have any curb appeal. When you walk in it, it was so beautifully done, but the outside looks so run-down. It looks like they have a lot of nice activities. The people that were staying there seemed very happy.

Nouveau Marc is very nice, and it has very nice people in it. They are a very people-oriented place. They have bingo, they have that game where you throw the bean bag in a hole, they play cards and have little games where the horses race. There’s also exercise programs and church services for all denominations. The food is OK. The thing that won us over is my mother just felt more at home when we walked in, and she liked the appearance of it on the outside.

My father is in Brookdale Kenner. The place is open and airy. It does not feel like a nursing home. It is more of an assisted living. He has plenty of room for what he needs. They take him to breakfast, lunch, and dinner. So, he is well fed. He wears a panic button in case he falls. The people working there are very nice. I have no problem with the people who takes care of pop. They have a really nice grounds and a really nice courtyard garden for their residents. They have plenty of activities if they want to partake in them. Pop is well looked after.

Nouveau Marc is a nice place. It is clean and comfortable. The rooms are not very big, but we have to downsize which we knew we had to do to begin with. However, I don't like that the bathroom is outside of the kitchen and not in the bedroom. They do serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and they offer transportation. They have a beauty salon and a barbershop. They have different parties like Mardi Gras and Fourth of July. They have a wall where they have all the veterans' pictures on it, and it is nice. Everything is neat. The outside looks good too.

We liked Brookdale Kenner. We were very impressed with the lady who sat with us and took us around. The cost was comparable, and it offered a few other extras like the nurse and someone being there round the clock. The rooms were nice, but the shape was very different. They used more square footage for the bathroom because of people in wheelchairs, so it took away some of the living area, but it was OK, and we were satisfied with it.

My wife has been living in Brookdale for a year and a half. It's kept relatively clean. They have various music groups come in and play brain games. They serve three meals a day, but they need to improve the meals and the assistance there. They are definitely lacking in staff. They have a van for doctors' appointments.
