The Claiborne at Thibodaux offers Assisted Living, Independent Living, and Memory Care within one community, allowing residents to move between levels of support as needs change. A dedicated Memory Care neighborhood operates inside a secured environment, and short-term respite stays are available for individuals who need temporary support after surgery or when a caregiver is away.
Medical oversight is extensive. On-site professionals include nurses, a visiting doctor, occupational, physical, and speech therapists, an optometrist, dentist, podiatrist, and massage therapist. The team manages diabetes care, medication administration, ambulatory support, and incontinence services. Accommodations and programs are laid out specifically to meet the needs of residents with memory loss, and hospice services can be arranged when required.
Apartments are pet-friendly and come in a range of floor plans; some feature kitchenettes, private balconies or patios, and wheelchair-accessible showers. Wi-Fi, cable, air conditioning, and available parking are standard across most units, while select residences include a central fireplace or proximity to outdoor decks and landscaped areas. Because layouts vary, not every accommodation contains every listed feature, so prospective residents should verify specifics during their tour.
Dining is prepared by a professional chef and served three times daily, with guest meals available. Residents can choose vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, no-sugar, and organic options, and international dishes appear regularly on the menu. An all-day dining program provides additional flexibility for those who prefer to eat on their own schedule.
Residents have access to an activity center, library and computer lounge, fitness programs, and both indoor and outdoor walking paths. The calendar includes yoga and chair yoga, live music, karaoke, happy hours, dances, birthday celebrations, reminiscence and sensory-based sessions, and intergenerational programs. Clubs and community groups meet regularly, social outings are scheduled, and a swimming pool is open for recreation and low-impact exercise.
