Best Decision I could have made!

I was hesitant to move my mother from where she had been for 5 years, but I couldn’t be happier with Academy House! From the first day I visited I knew Academy House was the right fit! [name removed] and her staff made me feel so comfortable and were very helpful and gracious. My mom’s first moments there were proof she was in the right place! She went in and adjusted immediately and without hesitation. She tells everyone how much she likes it there . The home is lovely, clean and welcoming. The staff is fantastic and the food wonderful. My mom, who was hardly eating before her move, is now eating more and loving it! I am so much more at ease and relaxed, knowing my mother is so well cared for!

Academy House

There is an alternative to 'nursing homes' and large 'assisted living' facilities for your loved one!

Imagine a licensed assisted living facility in an ordinary-looking suburban home shared by only five residents! Small assisted living residences such as ours, now known in elder-care circles as 'personal care homes,' offer a quantum leap in the individual attention and affection our residents receive, not to mention the emotional comfort they derive from a homelike setting, where friends gather around a single table for meals and gather in the den in their favorite chairs for television, snacks, music or conversation — all just a few steps from their personally furnished single or double bedrooms.

The Academy Drive residence has been lovingly restored and carefully renovated to meet the health, safety and accessibility specifications of the Dept. of Health & Hospitals.

Besides the comfortable dining area and den, with its personal recliners and large television, residents also enjoy occasional sits on the front porch or rear deck (soon to be reconfigured and joined by a glass sunroom) overlooking the large backyard and seemingly flowing waters (rippled by the breeze off Lake Pontchartrain) of a surprisingly scenic canal.

Review for Academy House

I would recommend to others. The Harvard house was always very clean. The staff was very friendly a excellent at meeting the needs of the residents from bathing to personal bathroom needs. The staff prepared wonderful meals from breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. All residents that were able ate all of their meals in the dining room. Other residents that were bedridden were brought their meals and someone would help feed them. The house was always decorated for each holiday. I could not have asked for better place for the care of my loved one.
