“Well, what we like about Laurel Wood is the activities here. They have bingo, movies in the afternoon, and physical activity. It has very nice walkways around... you can walk around the outside. They have a nice porch here now you can sit out. There's wildlife here that you can view and now and then when it comes out of the woods. That seems to be an attraction for everybody, everybody looks for that. Well, I think the medical care here is about the most important thing that I can see. We have the doctor come and see her, take her out and check her every now and then. If there’s a problem, you tell the nurse and they have the doctor come and check on her. She seems a lot better health-wise now.”
“The nursing staff, they take care of her so well, and they like her so much and I know that she likes them. She greets them; they greet her. You know she’s in good care here and it takes a big load off of my mind, knowing that she’s safe here and sound. And I know she enjoys it here and she’s around people, she's always taking to people that’s a good thing or her. it’s just the whole situation has been so positive for us. We’re just so thankful that my mom ended up here at Laurel Wood.”
“I came to Laurel Wood because my mother was here first. She was here for six months — it was about a year and a half ago. We were taken care of besides my mother; you know, they actually tended to our needs besides my mother’s needs. And they were just so good with her. And it was just a good experience, a really good experience. And then I was here in February. The day before the Superbowl I fell and broke my hip and my elbow. So I was here for three months and between rehab and the nursing care I got here, they keep you smiling. You know, and they took good care of me. And if you needed something, they were right there. And I know how well-taken care of I was, and how well taken care of my mother was. And so I came back here.
The rehab at Laurel Wood helped me because they’re a good group that really makes you work out a little bit but plus they’re a very happy bunch. And they’ll laugh with you and they'll talk with you while you’re doing things, just to keep your spirits up. And you find you can get through the exercises better. If no one is talking to you and you’re there doing it yourself, it’s hard. But when someone is talking with you and laughing with you, it’s very easy to do them. You find it easier. The best thing about Laurel Wood is the people here. They’re a good bunch, they smile with you, they laugh with you and they take care of you for your needs. If you need anything, they’re right there. You know, helping you. And they’re probably the best. And that’s everywhere I go. The different places you have to go? They’re all happy. They’re a good group of people.”
