Awesome!
I am so glad we found A Place for Mom. They helped us so much! We did not know where to turn and found so much help with them. The place we found with their help is great and we are so happy we can place my elderly father in such a wonderful setting.

Wonderful experience
The Brookdale has been a great experience for my parents after leaving their home of 48 years. This was a very tough year for my parents and Brookdale immediately became home to them. Any issues they may have had with their transition the Brookdale staff always addressed and always had a positive solution to whatever it was. The staff is all amazing and this is a place that I have always felt this past year my parents were always safe!!

Best Place for Mom
At one of the most difficult times of my life this facility showed up and built a road I had no map for. The navigation was difficult to se the very least. Brookdale Lafayette paved a way for me and my mom. Could not have done it without them.

Great experience at Brookdale Lafayette
We have had a great experience so far at Brookdale Lafayette. The facility is very clean and the staff is very helpful. The staff has taken care of my dad’s needs and have been very helpful in helping him make the transition to his new home. The administrative staff also helped me navigate the paperwork and made sure I was aware and understood all of our options.

Brookdale Memory Care
When my siblings and I started to look for a memory care place for our mom, Brookdale immediately stood out from the other places we looked at. The director was so patient with all of questions and was always available to talk with us. We made the decision to have our mom move in at Brookdale and everything from her room to the services she receives are awesome. It is very obvious that the Brookdale staff form a bond with the residents and care very much for their well being. The communication from the Brookdale staff has been open and on a regular basis. We always know what was happening and their thoughts on things regarding her care. Someone is always available to speak to us. We are very happy with our mom being a resident at Brookdale and feel that Brookdale is now her home.

We have only been there for three weeks. So review is limited. I have only been there once since I live out of state. Hopefully my Mom is adjusting to this facility. My brother has gone in once or twice a week. I don’t feel as if we can give an adequate review.

A clean bright friendly community with lots of fun activities
Mom is very happy there. There was an incident with a fellow resident becoming violent...not towards Mom...but witnessed by her. Otherwise staff is very friendly and helpful and loving. They, like most long-term care facilities have occasional issues with lack of staff. I am very aware that staff retention is frequently an issue. They recently had a covid outbreak which I felt they handled well. I feel very confident in the care they give Mom. Overall, Very pleased with Brookdale and would and have recommended them. Thanks again for your assistance with finding a very good fit for Mom.

There is consistent and friendly staff. Activities are done weekly to keep residents active both on and off of the premises. Celebrations are done to encourage family engagement. A support group is offered to families. At times, the staff is shorthanded.

We like the staff the most-everyone has been very helpful and kind. Sometimes the food selection is the same offerings for several days. I think they could offer a few more options for activities but for the most part we have been very satisfied.

“The ONLY Place For Mom or Dad”
The time came when my dad could no longer live alone... I started searching for memory care facilities in Lafayette & the surrounding areas. My very last tour was Brookdale. When I took my first step in the facility I was greeted by staff with smiles, kindness & compassion. As Sara was showing me around, every single staff member went out of their to welcome me & introduce themselves! The residents were so happy whether they were involved in an activity, or in an area just chatting, EVERYONE was having fun! They have their very own hair Salon, Library, Gym, Gourmet Chef plus, so much more just for the residents! They go on shopping trips every week for their Assisted Living Residents. They have live bands for entertainment! It's phenomenal! Remember that saying, “save the best for last” that's an understatement! Brookdale is absolutely, most definitely the ONLY place for my Dad! The staff at Brookdale are so kind, caring, loving, compassionate & devoted to all of residents!!

Review for Brookdale Lafayette
My mom is really enjoying her time at Brookdale. I am SO thankful you suggested this facility. It was not even on my radar to check it out. The 1st place we visited felt very cold and institutional. Brookdale feels warm and homey. The staff have been very friendly and helpful. Mom loves the food and is very actively participating in activities each day. We are so happy with the care she is getting. Highly recommend Brookdale!

our family's experience, would not recommend, has room for improvement.
Areas of improvement - Repairing things in the rooms that are broken, taking broken items out of the room and not leave in the bedroom closet (for residents' safety), not ask the family member if they're coming to see about resident because "it's been a headache", be able to handle new residents that are combative and not comfortable staying yet, not sure about the meals, activities obviously didn't keep my mom busy enough. The overall experience was a nightmare for us. She got there Monday and by Thursday they had called the cops on her and sent her to the hospital before I could get there to check on her. Once at the hospital, they wouldn't let me see her and drugged her up, then sent her to a behavioral hospital. She came back home all bruised up... it was horrible.

A Great Place for Your Loved Ones
My mother has been a resident in Clare Bridge (memory care) for almost 3 years. It had been a wonderful experience for her and our family. She is more active and healthier now than when she lived home alone. Her days are filled with various activities (exercise, bingo, puzzles, games, music, ice cream socials or just visiting with friends ) Many Fridays you can see the Brookdale bus at Holy Cross Church for Mass. Several times a month they go to a local restaurant for lunch. We have also gone to several museums in the area. Our favorite activity is just a joy ride to get some fresh air and stop for a little sweet treat. Brookdale also has planned “Family Fun” days that bring together families members of all ages for a few hours of entertainment. Once you walk through the doors you feel at home. It is well cleaned and decorated for the season. The care takers are very attentive and loving. It has been a great place for my mom. I hope it will be a great place for your loved one also.

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.

about Brookdale Lafayette

A Place for Mom has scored Brookdale Lafayette 9.6 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
