Amber Terrace in Baton Rouge offers two primary levels of support: Assisted Living and Memory Care. Residents who need intermittent help can take advantage of respite or short-term stays, and those with cognitive challenges benefit from staff members who receive specialized memory care training. On-site medical oversight includes regular physician visits and coordinated diabetes care, so glucose monitoring and medication adjustments can be handled without leaving the community.
Additional medical services are available on the premises to reduce the need for outside appointments. The clinical team provides incontinence management, ambulatory assistance, and comprehensive medication management. Nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and a podiatrist visit the community, while an optometrist and dentist handle vision and oral health checks. The property is designed to accommodate memory loss, featuring an enclosed courtyard for wandering safety, and hospice care can be arranged when needed.
Accommodations range from private to companion suites, and many open directly to secure outdoor areas that allow residents to get fresh air without leaving the property. Cats are permitted, giving pet owners an option to bring a familiar companion. Not all living spaces include every listed feature, so prospective residents should confirm availability during their tour.
Dining is offered on an all-day schedule, allowing residents to eat when it suits them rather than at fixed seating times. Balanced meals are prepared on site and included in the monthly rate, with modifications available for diabetic, low-salt, or texture-adjusted diets. Snacks are also on hand to accommodate late-night appetites or added calories for those who need them.
Residents have access to an activity center where clubs and small communities meet for scheduled gatherings. Montessori-based and sensory programs encourage engagement through familiar tasks, while reminiscence sessions help Memory Care residents recall meaningful events. These structured offerings provide daily opportunities for social and cognitive stimulation without residents needing to leave the property.
