Ark Post Acute Network

What I like the most about this community is the different activities they have for the residents to participate in. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would recommend the Lafreniere Assisted Living and Memory Care community to other families.

Very friendly, great physical facility. Security seemed lax. I came and left many times without signing in.

It is conveniently located, work with you, affordable, very nice atrium, staff helpful, rooms ok.

When it comes to the cleanliness of the community the floors aren't always clean and the meals aren't always prepared on time. Lately, there seems to be a high turnover rate with the staff. Several residents have left the facility.

I would say it's a good facility for people who don't need upscale or elaborate/fancy. The atrium is a nice touch inside. There are quite a few activities for residents. They have taken good care of mom. The caregivers & managers are nice.

My mother is currently a resident at Holly Court Assisted Living and Memory Care and things have been very good for her at this facility so far. I would recommend Holly Court Assisted Living and Memory Care to others.

I've only had mom in another community. Holly Court seems to be better able to handle her Dementia. The caregivers apparently are better trained. They are up and around, sit with mom in the common areas. ( Mom has fallen previously... before Holly Court ) So they are involved to keep mom from falling. Making sure she uses her walker. The other community made us get sitters around the clock to keep her from falling.

very active with lots of games, food is good

The staff and residents are very nice and they would be happy with Oakwood Village. It's a place I would recommend to others. We picked this community, because of the friendliness of staf and cost.

The Marketing and Admitting Staff were very helpful during the initial contact, admission process, and ongoing. The administration and nursing staff have been responsive and professional.

A nice place with friendly staff and residents. I have been here for a few years, and it is my home.

My loved one has been happy with Holly Court. From what I have heard, she says she likes the food, the room is beautiful, facility itself is nice etc. She is paying extra for some extra care. Staff are responsive and always sending me notices on what is going on within the facility. Overall it has been a positive experience.

The community, worked well with having my love one adjusted to the new lifestyle. I would like to see more staff added.

Overall we are very happy! The apartment is dated however my mother in law doesn't cook or anything so it's not an issue. That's the reason I gave 4 instead of 5, staff is very attentive and friendly and always call us if there is an issue. Very happy we made the move. My mother-in-law was hesitant to move because she felt she was fine in a apartment by herself however we noticed she just sat and watched tv and had no interaction besides us. Moving her to Lafreinere has been such a blessing! She is safe in her own apartment but just outside her door trained personnel are there if she needs anything. She has adjusted now and is participating in the events and games they offer and we are resting easy knowing she is in a safe environment!

My complaints may be just related to me and our situation, they are specifically assisted living and my loved one has some dementia. They are not credited for memory care, so they do not provide additional care for people who they have like my loved one. They expect residents to be a little more independent than my loved one is, even though they claim to handle that care. I saw something recently that the residents do and they are still having problems with cold food. Overall we have not been very happy with the experience so far.

This community was okay. There wasn't really anything that jumped out to me with this community.

Our family really liked this community when we first went to look at it, we would recommend the Lafreniere Assisted Living and Memory Care to others.

[name removed] was very helpful and able to answer my questions. The facility was clean and didn’t smell bad like most similar places do which was a plus. Definitely considering this sa a place for my mom.

I would recommend it. Some of that's the location - it's very convenient to where I live. It's an older facility, but it's well maintained. They seem to be well organized. It is assisted living, and not a nursing facility, so understand that going in. They have hospice located there if it gets to that point, which is a nice feature. They have amenities that cost extra, like a nurse to administer medication if you need it. They have haircuts in the beauty salon available, and the food is great. My loved ones go on and on about the food. It's not a big place, so there's a not a lot of people. With the staff they have, they do a great job. I have no complaints. If it was a newer place, great, with more staff, great But that would be any place you go. I've been very pleased with it. I have one loved one in assisted living, and another in memory care, and they're both doing as well as can be expected. The activities are more arts and crafts, which I don't know what other options they would have. They have bingo, and upcoming holiday celebrations for Cinco de May and Mother's Day. I wish my mother especially would get more involved in the activities, but she's not an artsy person. And again, I wouldn't know what else to recommend though. But my loved ones have been doing well there. Oakwood's communication is really good too. So many problems are averted because either they will let me know of an issue, or I call them and they jump right on it. They've been really good at that, which has been wonderful for me. They've always treated me like I'm the only one who goes there, and I've been really happy having my family members there.
