Sunrise of Baton Rouge provides two primary levels of support: Assisted Living for residents who need help with daily tasks and Memory Care for those living with Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias. Each care type is delivered by staff trained to manage the unique needs of the population served, whether that involves cueing and reminders, hands-on assistance with bathing and dressing, or structured cognitive programs designed to preserve abilities for as long as possible.
The community operates as a secured setting and layers multiple health services on top of its basic care levels. Residents have access to diabetes management, medication oversight, incontinence and ambulatory assistance, and on-site podiatry visits. A physician is available for routine and as-needed evaluations, and the residence accepts hospice services when appropriate. Families looking for short-term coverage can arrange respite stays under the same clinical supervision. All Memory Care areas are designed to minimize confusion and help residents navigate safely.
Apartments are laid out to support aging in place and include options with a kitchenette for light meal preparation. Floor plans vary, and not every unit has the same features, so prospective residents should review the specific amenities of the suite they are considering.
Meals are prepared on site three times daily, and staff can accommodate specialized diets related to medical conditions or personal preference. Snacks are available between meals, which is useful for residents who benefit from smaller, more frequent servings to maintain blood sugar or simply prefer flexible dining times.
Residents can bring a pet, enjoy an on-site barber and beauty shop, exercise in a dedicated fitness room, and stay connected through community-wide internet access. Scheduled transportation helps residents reach medical appointments, shopping, or social outings. It’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
