A Place At Home - Lafayette

Spring is here… and it’s the perfect time to refresh more than just your home.

For many seniors—especially those living with Parkinson’s—this season can bring new challenges along with new beginnings. From fall risks to changes in mobility, even small things around the home can make a big difference in safety and independence.

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, we believe home should be a place of comfort, confidence, and dignity—no matter the season.

Our latest blog shares simple, practical ways to help seniors thrive at home this spring, while also recognizing the unique needs of those living with Parkinson’s disease.

A few things we highlight:
• Easy home safety updates to prevent falls
• How routines and support can improve daily life
• Ways families can stay proactive instead of reactive

Because the goal isn’t just staying at home… it’s thriving there.

If you or someone you love could use a little extra support this season, we’re always here to help.

As spring arrives in Acadiana, it brings sunshine, fresh air, and the perfect opportunity to refresh our homes and routines. For seniors aging at home, this season of renewal is also an important time to focus on safety, wellness, and specialized care needs—especially for those living with Parkins...

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, care isn’t just what we do… it’s who we are. When one of our clients needed his newly delivered mobility scooter assembled, we didn’t hesitate. Larry, a proud veteran and part of the ownership team, stepped in and got it done. No fuss, no delay… just service, respect, and a job well done. From one veteran to another… mission accomplished.

There’s something powerful about veterans taking care of veterans, and it almost always involves a shared understanding, a quiet bond, and a commitment to always show up. Because here, we don’t just provide care — we make things happen.

Wherever home is, we’re there.

Today was one of those days that just fills your cup.

A Place at Home - Lafayette had the absolute pleasure of spending time with this amazing Gardening Club Courtyard Retirement & Assisted Living Community and bringing a little hands-on fun with pots to decorate, soil to dig in, and marigolds to plant.

Watching everyone get creative, share laughs, and take pride in their plants was such a joy. These are the moments that remind me how powerful simple activities can be—connection, purpose, and a whole lot of smiles.

Thank you for having me and letting A Place at Home - Lafayette be part of your day. We loved every minute of it!

Our Business Development Director, Lori, had a grand time serving as a judge for the Region III Nursing Home King & Queen Pageant held at the Arnaudville Community Center… and what a beautiful celebration it was! Residents from nursing homes across Opelousas, Arnaudville, Rayne, Abbeville, Ville Platte, and Breaux Bridge came together for an afternoon full of smiles, stories, and sparkle.

Each contestant had the chance to greet the judges and answer interview questions, sharing their personalities, humor, and wisdom… and let’s just say, choosing was no easy task! The audience and contestants honored the outgoing King and Queen for their reign and crowned a new King and Queen to carry on the tradition. There was cake, punch, plenty of laughter, and moments that reminded us exactly why we do what we do, celebrating life at every stage. It was truly a day filled with joy, dignity, and community spirit. A great time was had by all!

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, we’re honored to support and celebrate our seniors wherever they call home.

We were honored to host our first-ever Acadiana Care Collective networking luncheon right here in our community! This event brought together incredible professionals from the healthcare and veteran sectors, all with a shared passion for serving others. From meaningful conversations to new connections being made across the room, the energy was something you could truly feel.

And let’s talk about the food… because Acadiana doesn’t play when it comes to lunch! Guests enjoyed a delicious spread of jambalaya, salad, rolls, cookies, and mini cheesecakes—the perfect pairing for great conversation and collaboration.

A big thank you to our co-host, Amedisys, for helping make this event such a success. Together, we’re building stronger connections to better serve our seniors, veterans, and families in Acadiana.

The best part? We’re just getting started!
Our next Acadiana Care Collective luncheon is scheduled for:
📅 Tuesday, April 28 at noon

If you’d like to attend, become a sponsor, or get added to our guest list, we’d love to have you join us!
📧 Reach out to: lori.barron@aplaceathome.com

Let's grow connections, support one another, and continue to care for our community—together.

Most seniors want to stay in their homes as they age. When seniors age in place, it benefits families, caregivers, and our entire Acadiana community.

We wrote a short blog about how in-home care impacts Acadiana in a positive way.

Do you think most seniors prefer to age at home?

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, we believe strong communities help seniors thrive. Recently, we had the opportunity to connect with two incredible groups doing great work in Acadiana.

We were proud to support South Louisiana Community College (SoLACC) at the Chancellor’s Breakfast, celebrating education, workforce development, and the future of our region. We also enjoyed spending time with one of our local Rotary Clubs in Opelousas, sharing more about the important role professional caregiving plays in helping seniors remain safe, independent, and comfortable at home.

Every conversation is an opportunity to spread awareness about how families can get the support they need so their loved ones can age in place with dignity and care. We love being part of a community that values connection, service, and caring for one another.

If you or someone you know could benefit from professional in-home care, we’re always here to help.

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, we don’t just show up… we SHOW OUT. 🎉

This week we gathered our incredible caregivers for updated Defensive Driver training, a deep dive refresher on our CARE Model, exciting updates on the Dovida acquisition of A Place at Home, and a celebration that felt like a full parade route of wins!

✨ Celebrating THREE YEARS serving Acadiana
🏆 Activated Insights Leader in Training
🏆 Activated Insights Employer of Choice
🏆 Activated Insights Provider of Choice
🖤 Honoring Black History Month and the legacy of caregivers who have shaped healthcare with strength and dignity

We even leaned into a little “casino” theme — because when you invest in training, teamwork, and heart, that’s not a gamble… that’s a sure bet.

Our team is “Marching” into greatness — growing, learning, and leading with excellence for the families we serve every day.

If you see one of our caregivers in the community, give them a high five. They’re the real jackpot.

Some months feel like calendar pages.
These months feel like gratitude.

At A Place at Home – Lafayette, we are powered by hearts that show up with patience, compassion, and steady hands. Today, we’re celebrating four professional caregivers who remind us what care truly looks like.

✨ October Caregiver of the Month – Audrey Jerry
✨ November Caregiver of the Month – Harriet Winters
✨ December Caregiver of the Month – Shacarla Cheneir
✨ January Caregiver of the Month – Sierra Guidry

Each of these caregivers has gone above and beyond for our clients and their families. From early mornings and late evenings to quiet reassurance during difficult moments, they consistently deliver not just service, but presence. And that makes all the difference.

We see your dedication.
We see your kindness.
We see the lives you’re touching every single day.

Please help us congratulate these amazing team members in the comments!
