Although a few years ago since my grandfather passed, I still remember visiting him at this facility and am so grateful of his placement there. We spent every holiday we could eating in the dining room and were pleased to see the owners and their children stopping by to wish everyone merry Christmas and say a prayer with us. My grandfather went from being home alone without much social stimulation to an environment where he could interact with wonderful staff and residents, which he loved. I am a social worker in a nursing facility myself and still look back at this facility as exactly what you'd want for your loved one.

My father was at The Laurels. It was a fancy place. It was really nice. All the workers seemed to be very nice. He was in a single room. There was a bed in it and two chairs. Their food was very good. Once in a while, they'll have entertainment. They did have activities, but more or less they have devotions. It is a Catholic-oriented facility.

The Laurels is a very nice facility. It is a new building with only 100 residents. The rooms are all bright and welcoming. It has beautiful mountain views. In all I am very happy with the facility. The food is all made from scratch, which I think is very important to your diet. Family is welcome to join for meals for a small charge. They have a lot of different activities for the residents to do everyday from bingo, to religious services, to arts and crafts to movie nights. They also provide day trips which they charge $1 for in order to hold your seat. Some of the day trips are a trip to the mall or a lunch trip to a local restaurant. Every floor has a social room with a television and games for the residents and family members to enjoy. Laundry is done twice a week and rooms are cleaned every day. Residents are also brought to and from doctors appointments if necessary. All of the things I listed prior are included in the monthly cost. They also have amenities at an extra cost such as a hair salon on the first floor. The staff is always friendly and curteous. I could not be happier with where my grandmother is. I feel that she is safe and very well taken care of.
