I have had the opportunity to work with patients at Peristyle Assisted Living - Old Metairie Gardens through my role with Heart of Hospice, and I am always impressed by the level of care and compassion provided. Joanny James, the house manager is wonderful and truly goes above and beyond for the residents. The Director of Wellness, Monique Brannon, RN, is also exceptional. Her professionalism, knowledge, and genuine dedication to the residents' well-being are evident in everything she does. The facility is beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean, and has such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The care the seniors receive is excellent, and it is clear that the staff genuinely cares about their residents' comfort, dignity, and quality of life.
