About Southside Gardens Assisted Living Center

from Oasis Senior Advisors

Southside Gardens Assisted Living Center delivers assisted-living care for older adults who can benefit from daily support yet wish to retain a level of personal independence. The community is prepared for residents who require diabetes management, including monitoring and help with medication or diet compliance. It also makes space available for respite or short-term stays, giving caregivers a reliable option when they need brief relief or when a resident is recovering from a hospital visit.

The property is a secured community, meaning entry points are controlled to help reduce the risk of wandering and unauthorized access. Staff members are on site around the clock to respond to routine needs and urgent situations, ensuring that residents receive assistance with bathing, dressing, mobility, and scheduled reminders when needed. Families can expect regular wellness checks and communication about any changes observed in a loved one’s condition.

Apartments and suites come in multiple layouts, and not all units include every feature, but options can include in-room Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, air conditioning, and private balconies, decks, or patios. Common areas add to the living space with outdoor gathering spots, raised garden beds, and pet-friendly zones for residents who wish to bring an animal companion.

Meals are prepared by a professional chef and served three times a day with snacks available. Menus emphasize fresh, organic choices and accommodate low-sodium, no-sugar, and other physician-directed diets. Consistent carbohydrate meal planning is available for residents managing diabetes, and the staff tracks intake when necessary to help maintain health goals.

Residents have access to an activity center, swimming pool, library and computer lounge, indoor walking paths, and scheduled social outings. Programs on site range from clubs and community groups to live music, karaoke, happy hours, dances, birthday celebrations, reminiscence and sensory-based sessions, and raised-bed gardening. A jacuzzi offers an additional spot for relaxation, and the campus allows elders to move freely between indoor and approved outdoor spaces under staff supervision.

#8 in Baton Rouge, LA

Residents and their families say:

This community receives praise for its well-maintained independent living apartments, which come with appreciated amenities such as small gardens, porches, and a pet-friendly policy, crucial for many seniors living alone. The opportunity for outdoor activities, including gardening, and the presence of a welcoming and responsive staff significantly contribute to the residents' quality of life. Activities like card groups, bingo, and prayer circles help integrate residents into the community, fostering a wholesome and engaging environment. The location's accessibility to shopping and the sense of safety within the community setup was also highlighted as positive. Additionally, the maintenance of individual cottages, along with services like weekly yard care and housekeeping, adds to the appeal, although the provision of two meals a day, with breakfast not included, and a la carte services for an extra meal were mentioned.

However, some concerns were raised regarding the facility's aging infrastructure and the perceived lack of updates, cleanliness, and comprehensive maintenance, particularly during the weekends or after hours. The living spaces, especially for assisted living and memory care, were seen as potentially isolating due to their individual apartment setup, raising concerns about the level of interaction and engagement for those residents. Additionally, the inconsistency in upkeep and the size and cleanliness of rooms were noted as areas needing improvement. These points of contention, notwithstanding the many benefits cited, suggest room for improvement in ensuring the facility can fully cater to the evolving needs of its residents, particularly those requiring more attentive or specialized care.
