The Resident Experience is Our Primary Focus
Our spacious, well-appointed center is designed to enhance resident experiences – from their living spaces to how we provide services. On-going evaluations of our day-to-day operations help create a journey to our culture change movement.
Person-Centered Care
Old Jefferson Community Care Center has been designed to complement our philosophy of person-center care. Our spacious, well-appointed center allows us to provide care in an environment that makes residents feel at home. The resident rooms and many common areas, including living rooms, dining areas, library and chapel, provide the space for a wide variety of interests and needs.
The person-center care philosophy extends to operations. Thick medical charts are being replaced by less intrusive electronic charting systems. Our dining experience includes table service, where residents are offered choices. Among our amenities are refreshment bars, with drinks, coffee, soft serve ice cream and fresh, home-made cookies, that residents can visit any time of the day.

🦞 Let the Good Times Boil at Old Jefferson! 🎶
Our residents had an unforgettable time at our “Let the Good Times Boil” crawfish boil! From delicious crawfish pastalaya and jambalaya to sweet snowballs, there was something for everyone to enjoy.
The day was filled with music from a live band and DJ, plenty of dancing, colorful face painting, and lots of smiles all around.
Nothing brings people together quite like good food, great music, and even better company, and we’re so glad we could share this special day with our amazing residents! ... See MoreSee Less
