Garden View of Baton Rouge

How is Garden View of Baton Rouge listed on Louisiana's provider roster?

Garden View of Baton Rouge appears on LDH's November 2026 Licensed Providers Report as license #2203782569, and LDH's location directory sets its capacity at 78, bigger than the 71-resident midpoint of the 21 Capital Region ARCPs licensed for 17 or more.

Louisiana does not let an operator sell or hand over an ARCP license, so the 2015 start date belongs to this licensee's history at this address. When the current issue date is much newer than the original one, ask whether the building changed hands.

What does a Level 3 license allow Garden View of Baton Rouge to do?

Louisiana classifies Garden View of Baton Rouge as Level 3 assisted living, which covers daily-living help and medication support for 17 or more residents but stops short of nursing; outside agencies bring that in under a physician's orders.

The practical test comes at discharge: a Level 3 building can take a resident back if home health supplies the therapy or wound care and the ARCP coordinates it.

Can Garden View of Baton Rouge care for a resident with memory loss?

Nothing on the state roster answers that question. If Garden View of Baton Rouge advertises dementia care, it must have disclosed the program to LDH and must show families its written policies; if it does not, ask how it handles residents whose memory loss progresses.

Wandering is the usual turning point: an open building may not lock exits on its own authority, so a resident who tries to leave often needs a secured program approved by the State Fire Marshal. Nearby ARCPs whose licensed names mention memory care: Holly Court Assisted Living and Memory Care (6.8 mi).

Has LDH cited Garden View of Baton Rouge after an inspection?

At the building: Louisiana requires Garden View of Baton Rouge to post any statement of deficiencies where residents and visitors can see it, and the statement becomes public 30 days after the provider gets it or after LDH accepts the plan of correction (LAC 48:I.6823).

Because follow-up visits are unscheduled, what inspectors found at Garden View of Baton Rouge reflects a normal day. A citation answered with new training and a policy change reads differently from one answered with a single repair. LDH's complaint line is 1-888-810-1819.

Does Garden View of Baton Rouge have an emergency evacuation plan?

It must have one in writing. Every Louisiana ARCP, Garden View of Baton Rouge included, needs an evacuation and shelter-in-place plan, a generator list, resident identification and a resident copy of the evacuation steps; ask for that copy before signing.

Ask whether the generator runs air conditioning as well as lights, how medications and records travel in an evacuation, and what extra charges the disaster-fee formula allows.

What should we ask Garden View of Baton Rouge before signing?

Begin with the paperwork Louisiana requires: request the latest statement of deficiencies and the plan of correction that answered it; both must be available on site.

• Ask which outside home health agencies currently serve residents, since a Level 3 provider cannot supply nursing itself.
• Ask who sets up and gives medications, how errors are tracked, and whether medication help is priced by the number of drugs.
• Read the residency agreement's termination section; a resident can appeal an involuntary discharge to the Division of Administrative Law within 30 days.
• Ask how often rates rose in the last three years; Louisiana requires 30 days' written notice before any increase.
• Ask to meet Myra Rouse, the administrator named on the license, and who runs the building overnight.
