Heritage Manor of Houma is licensed as a nursing home and delivers 24-hour skilled nursing care for individuals who require consistent medical oversight. Registered nurses and licensed practical nurses are on duty around the clock to monitor vital signs, administer medications, and respond to changes in condition. Physicians visit the facility regularly, and nurse practitioners provide additional coverage, helping residents manage post-surgical recovery, respiratory conditions, diabetes, cardiac issues, and other complex health needs.

In addition to routine nursing services, Heritage Manor of Houma offers on-site physical, occupational, and speech therapy for residents working toward rehabilitation goals. Wound care programs, intravenous therapy, pain management, and hospice coordination are also available. A dedicated interdisciplinary team reviews each resident’s care plan, ensuring treatments are adjusted as health requirements evolve and that families are kept informed of progress.

Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms, each designed to support mobility and safety with features such as accessible bathrooms, handrails, and emergency call systems. Select rooms include in-room climate controls, television hookups, and limited storage space, but not every accommodation has all of these features. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided on a scheduled basis, and maintenance staff handle routine repairs.

Meals are prepared daily under the guidance of a registered dietitian, with menus that meet USDA guidelines and therapeutic diet orders. Residents dine in a common dining room that accommodates wheelchairs, though tray service can be arranged for those unable to leave their rooms; this option is not available in every accommodation. Pureed, low-sodium, diabetic, and other physician-ordered diets are provided, and snacks are offered between meals as recommended by the care team.

An Activity Center serves as the hub for recreational programming, offering crafts, games, exercise sessions, and social gatherings tailored to various mobility and cognitive levels. The center’s calendar is updated regularly to encourage engagement and support residents’ physical and mental well-being.
