PT, OT, and speech therapists are great. Progressing very well. The nurses are a different story. There’s a woman here with short black hair that has a very nasty tone. She does not care about patient bedside manner. Watch out for her. Other than that, my mom has had an okay experience.

I’m hopefully in the unusual position of having both my Dad and my brother at The Laurels at the same time. I just want to thank everyone there ! They are taking such good care of both of them. You can pay someone to take care of them, but you can’t pay someone to care ABOUT them ! Every time someone new comes in contact with my Dad or brother (from aides, to nurses, to rehab staff, to administrators, to cleaning staff, to drivers, cafeteria folks and more) I think to myself they can’t possibly be as nice and as good at their job as the last person. Yet somehow they are ! When I visit and it’s time to leave, that can be hard, especially with my 93 year old Dad. But it makes a huge difference when I have such confidence that my loved ones will be cared for AND ABOUT till I can visit again. It takes special people and special hearts to do what everyone there does every day. THANK YOU !
Intake was made easy. The employees were attentive and friendly.
