The facility itself is very nice. The rooms were large and private. The staff left me with mixed feelings; mostly positive. We had a couple of incidents of inattention early in my Father's 3 month stay, but they were addressed adequately. The rest of his stay was pretty smooth. However, there were a couple of nurses and aides who were exceptional. His wound nurse, Kathy, was amazingly kind and professional. The major drawback is the food. It was pretty consistently horrible. I was kept plenty busy bringing dishes to substitute from home. This place is great short term. I would not want to reside there permanently - primarily due to the poor food.

Most of the people are great it's the food that's horrible! It saddens me to know that the physical therapy department isn't gonna be the same! Most of them are gonna be leaving because of the outrageous healthcare prices went up so far that they can't survive especially if they have children! I just know that if I have to have another surgery and need rehabilitation,if the same people are not here then I'm not going back! They are all great together! I really wish they would've done something about the food though! I like the auction and bingo. The rooms were nice.its just those 2 things that are the worst is the food and loosing the physical therapy department

Pretty much don’t go here if you have the choice. Old people get left to lay in their own pee crap and bedsores and if you’re there for the rehab facilities they just leave you to lie in bed and don’t do anything to help. Not only that but the floor had sticky yellow stuff allll over it in the halls and in front of patients room doors. Staff were all rude and snippy acting as if we were a bother to them when all they do is stand around each other and talk.

This facility is not a place for your loved one. They treated my parent horribly. To leaving them soiled in their waste for hours to starving them. If you care for your loved one at all do not let them stay here

They treated my father horrible. By letting him lay in urine soaked sheets. Leaving feces covered wash clothes on his bed. Also starving him. Please don't let your loved one stay there.

We chose The Laurels of Athens for my mom. She's not there yet. My grandma used to live there and it's very, very nice. It's close to everybody and my family members. The staff was excellent. It was very, very clean and the grounds are nice. The staff is very nice. It's a very nice place and I have no concerns of putting my mom there. I liked most the cleanliness and the staff.
