The Claiborne at Thibodaux

It is horrible - They are disrespectful. They never follow up on things. They do not do their jobs when it come to responding to tenants needs. All and all not a good place to consider if you are looking for a facility.

I would say if [name removed]is not working there, stay away. Make sure you get the contacts for corporate. A Place for Mom really helped me make a decision.

The care services is really good., my loved one loves it there, and really loves the staff. They love the food, and is very happy, which makes it much easier for me. My loved one is doing great, and it is a blessing that they like it there. It is more expensive than other places, but they offer a great service.

As far as the care of their workers - I was very pleased with most of them most of the time. My loved one was in assisted living but probably did not qualify and I understand that is common in these types of facilities to try to accommodate them. I respected their attempts, but sometimes it was not quite what my loved one needed. Communication was particularly poor from the top. We requested to be updated on things many times and that never did get better and that played a part in our move.

The Claiborne is a beautiful facility that is very nice and clean. I love my apartment and it is super spacious. The activities seem to be getting better. They are supposed to be working on the beauty parlor but it is not open yet and we need our hair done, so I hope that opens soon. It has been a good experience overall and I would recommend them to others looking.

Changes in management made for some rocky roads in getting needed repairs and internet service. Hopefully that is now being resolved.

Great place and affordable! Top of our list!

TO BEGIN WITH THE NEW ACTIVITY PERSON DOES NOT DO MUCH CRAFTS WITH THESE PEOPLE..... SHE DOES THINGS THAT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE THERE DOES NOT WANT TO DO BECAUSE IIS NOT FUN FOR THEM... GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO DO WITH THEIR HANDS ..... INTERESTING TO KEEP THEM ENJOYING THE PROJECTS..... THE OTHER LADY THAT WAS THERE DID NOT DO MUCH EITHER BUT SHE DID DO MORE ON A WEEKLY BASES THAN THIS NEW ONE DOES FOR SURE ....... MY NIECE FINDS MORE TO DO WITH THESE LADIES THAN THE ACTUAL PERSON HIRED FOR THE JOB. THEY SAY THEY GIVE SNACKS DAILY...... OH REALLY ORANGES THAT YOU NEED A KNIFE TO CUT THESE THINGS AND THESE PEOPLE SOME ARE NOT ABLE TO CUT ORANGES...... I HAVE BEEN GOING THERE FOR ALMOST 8 MONTHS AND I SEE THINGS EACH TIME I GO THAT REALLY MAKE ME UPSET...... I BRING SNACKS AFTER TIME I GO THAT THEY CAN EAT WITH THEIR FINGERS... I SERVE IT IN A PLASTIC CUP AND HAND THEM OUT TO EVER WANTS IT....... I BRING SOMETHING DIFFERENT WEEK ...... THESE PEOPLE NEED TO BE SERVED A SNACK EVERY AFTERNOON ABOUT 3ISH NOT ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK ... THE HOME SHOULD SE TO IT THESE SNACKS ARE PAST OUT TO THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE.... NOW COME ON WHAT TROUBLE CAN THAT BE ...... SOME LOVE CHEESE NIP CRACKERS, GRAPES, PEANUT BUTTER CANDY, AND CINNAMON CEREAL ANY KIND THEY CAN EAT WITH THEIR FINGER .. I GET THE SQUARE WHEAT CEREAL ....... THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE PAST OUT DAILY. NOT ANY DAM ORANGES SITTING IN A COVERED DISH THAT THEY NEED TO GO LOOK FOR A KNIFE TO CUT IT .... THEY CAN'T PEEL THESE ORANGES WITH THE FINGERS..... THAN SOMETIMES THEY SERVE SLICES OF CAKES OR CUPCAKES THAT ARE ALWAYS STALE ....... THAT IS SOME SAD FOR ALL THE MONEY THESE PEOPLE PAY TO LIVE THERE AND THEY CAN'T GIVE OUT SNACKS.... AND THE OTHER DAY AS I WAS COMING UP THE HALL THERE WAS A [removed] EMPLOYEE COMING OUT THE LUNCH AREA DOORS HOLDING A DISH OF SWEETS ... SHE TOOK THEM HOME WITH HER AND THERE WAS ANOTHER LADY WITH HER GETTING OFF OF WORK ... THESE SNACKS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN OUT TO WORKERS TO BRING HOME ! REALLY WORKERS GET TO HAVE SNACKS BUT NOT THE PEOPLE WHO LIFE THERE....... THAN THEY HAVE ALL THESE PEOPLE THAT ARE FALLING AND IT TAKES A GOOD WHILE FOR HELP TO GET TO THEM EVEN WHEN THEY PUSH THE BUTTON ...... SAD SAD SAD

I am praying that it improves since it is now under new care in house facility ........ They have to get back on the right track so that no one else leaves the place..... it is so nice inside that they should be screening people better and looking after the patients needs .... with God's help it will be be a much better place to leave your loved ones without any worry about them .. Let's hope the change is for the best !

Needs to upkeep the landscaping better, keep the fountain with running water. Clean the outside of the building better.

I would definitely recommend The Claiborne at Thibodaux. Everyone in the community has been great and they provide exceptional care for my father. Activities are offered to the residents at the moment there really isn't an outdoor activity my father likes that they offer. They do however try to work on the needs of the residents. The food is okay there are no complaints about it.

We looked at a few places for mom and dad and The Claiborne seemed to be the best. It is a new facility and will meet the individual needs of both parents! Since it is a new facility, it does have a few kinks to work out; no place is perfect but I feel The Claiborne is willing to work with the entire family to make mom and dad's quality of life better. I am very grateful for having the ability to help mom and dad make such an important decision. Thanks to A Place For Mom for guiding us in making the correct choice for our parents! We are referring other family members to The Claiborne to help them in making their choices also.

My mom has received excellent care at The Claiborne. Everyone on the staff has gone over and beyond in making her well being a top priority. The entire staff has been extremely courteous and caring.
