Senior Living Advisors of Acadiana (SLAA) is Lafayette, Louisiana’s first and only local, independently owned senior placement agency in the Acadiana area. SLAA assists with placement in assisted living, independent living, memory care communities, home health, and sitting services. The advisors are dedicated to making the difficult and stressful transition into senior living communities easy for families and their loved ones.
Nick Sarver, the founder of SLAA, is a licensed nursing home administrator with experience running skilled nursing facilities, assisted living communities, and home health agencies. Throughout his career, he recognized families’ overwhelming challenges when transitioning loved ones into long-term care. Through these experiences, his passion for helping families cultivated him to establish SLAA.
SLAA provides a one-on-one experience, touring the communities with the families. With their industry insider knowledge, Sarvers states he is well versed in what to look for when assisting a family member in locating the proper senior living for their loved one, including finding a safe and secure community that complies with state and federal regulations.
The family will be given a personal consultation and care assessment to learn about their loved one’s specific care needs, lifestyle preferences, and budget. SLAA will determine which level of care is appropriate for their loved one, whether it be assisted living, independent living, memory care, home health, sitting services, or a nursing home. From this information, a Care Profile is created to match their loved one with the best senior living communities according to their profile.
Sarver carefully chooses the communities SLAA represents and completes a thorough site tour and review of state survey inspections. This allows families to rest assured that they are selecting a quality community where their loved one can live an enriched life and receive top-notch, quality care.
Once the type of care and community is selected, SLAA will aid the family in filling out paperwork and even facilitate the family’s loved one’s moving needs. SLAA helps the family through the entire process, from start to finish, at NO COST to the family or their loved one.
As a Senior Placement Advisor, Sarver has dedicated his service to developing an advanced knowledge of aging to assist seniors and their families in their time of need.
