Our small family of senior caregivers and operators in the Greater New Orleans area including Metairie, Lakeview, and Jefferson, have over thirty years of healthcare and senior living experience including nursing home and assisted living administration, home health and hospice management, nursing care and nurse education. It is our collective experience and the feedback from those we have served that has motivated us to offer our alternative to traditional senior living facilities. Frequently, senior living facilities use words like ‘homelike’ in marketing materials to convey a more appealing setting, but even when done well, traditional models cannot escape the institutional feel. A true family home offers what large operations can only hope to emulate. The Peristyle Residences team of professional senior caregivers includes a Registered Nurse who serves as our Wellness Coordinator, an RN who manages Medication Administration, Music Therapy Department, an Program Director, and each home is served by a dedicated House Manager and a caring team of CNAs.
The Peristyle Residences Richland House is a spacious and elegant residential assisted living home in Metairie which serves eight residents and offers all private rooms. A trio of pine trees line the front yard and provide shade as you enter the home along the landscaped path. A lovely foyer opens into an expansive living room where residents and guests will enjoy activities, parties and relaxation.
The spacious dining room is well placed between the kitchen and living room. Residents of this residential assisted living home in Metairie will experience family style dining and enjoy home cooked meals that are delectable and nutritious. The rear yard is accessible for all to enjoy. Meander along the limestone path, then relax on one of the benches that face the magnificent butterfly garden. This feature was inspired by the gorgeous layout of the Butterfly Garden at Louise McGehee School in the Garden District. The huge yard feels like a community park and is lush with Indian Hawthorne, and Azaleas. Shade is provided by beautiful Drake Elms, Magnolia and Pine Trees. Peristyle Residences Richland House is in the shadow of East Jefferson Medical Center and provides a wonderful senior care option for those who reside in the Greater New Orleans area, including Metairie, Lakeview, and Jefferson. The Richland House is perfect for seniors who may no longer be able to safely live at home, but who do not need or prefer more institutional settings such as nursing homes or traditional assisted living facilities.
