Forest Towers East Apartments

Forest Towers East Apartments sits at 10101 Lake Forest Blvd in New Orleans, in a neighborhood with plenty of other senior housing around like Peace Lake Towers and Tivoli Place Apartments, and if you look for affordable and accessible apartments with help as needed, this is one of them, since you'll find both independent living for healthier seniors and assisted living when someone needs support with bathing, dressing, meals, or managing medications, and if memory problems come up, they have memory care with extra safety and doors kept secure to help keep folks with Alzheimer's or dementia from getting lost, and there's even skilled nursing services with round-the-clock care and wound help. The community's made for seniors who want a simple and comfortable place, with apartments that have fully equipped kitchens that are easy to move around in, and Wi-Fi all over, 1-bedroom layouts, ramps, elevators, and easy parking, especially for people who sometimes use canes or wheelchairs. Seniors who just want a social, maintenance-free life with people their age can join in for some of the organized events or head out together to nearby parks, churches, or restaurants like Deanie's Restaurant or Zimmer's Seafood, not far away, and groceries or medicine pickups are pretty easy with places like Walgreens, Winn-Dixie, and CVS Pharmacy close by. Those who love animals will be glad to know that pets are welcome here, which can help with loneliness, and if someone wants to live at home a little longer, but could still use help, trained home care aides can visit for companionship and daily help without having to move right away. For those taking care of a spouse or parent at home, respite care is on hand for breaks, with short stays possible. Forest Towers East also joins with rent-assisted and Section 8 housing options to help with costs for those who qualify, and while it isn't flashy, it's meant to be simple and friendly, with safety as a focus, accessible design, and staff who can adjust support as needs change, and being close to hospitals like the SE Louisiana Veterans Hospital makes medical help easy to reach if emergencies come up. Some folks like the way Forest Towers East gives choices-whether you're looking for apartment-style living for yourself, need daily help, or need full nursing or memory care, you can mostly stay within the same community, and the design helps people of all mobility levels feel pretty comfortable and safe as they age.
