Such a caring and amazing facility. Everyone from the therapy staff down to the aides is remarkable. This facility truly showed love and caring.

It was one of the best....the staff was nice, the building clean, and most of all, the social workers were there for me when I needed them the most!

Clarence, a recent guest at The Laurels, is happy to be back in Branch County after an eventful return from Florida in April. One afternoon, after receiving chemotherapy for lung cancer in Jackson, Clarence suffered a stroke while doing yard work. Shortly after the stroke, Clarence was transferred to the Laurels for rehab to rebuild his strength. Clarence and his favorite therapist, Penny, meet each morning around 6AM, which Clarence states he enjoys because "it gets my day going, and she really works me good, then I can go on with my day." He's now able to walk again, with the assistance of his of his walker, and is getting stronger each day.

Clarence has rebuilt enough strength to resume his chemotherapy and is overjoyed to be returning home to his wife, Elaine. The couple will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary in July and are looking forward to being able to resume helping their children with the campground they own in Leonidas and tending to their garden together.

My mother has been at Regency for 5 years now. The Regency staff and nurses are truly so caring. The activity department is amazing! They keep all of the residents busy all the time. The facility is always so clean. Truly a wonderful place to have your loved ones!

At such a difficult time as transitioning a parent into a long term care facility, the staff at Laurels has been outstanding with their care for my mother. Feeling overwhelmed with questions, Brooke was there to provide answers and put me at ease. The nursing staff, aides and maintenance have all worked together to get my Mom settled. I am beyond pleased with her care, from daily phone calls talking with my mom, to her delight in the maintenance setting up her TV. Thank you to the entire staff of The Laurels of Dekalb for the care of my mother. Can't wait for Covid Restriction to be lifted and I can visit my Mom in person.
