“Rena the head nurse on my unit was very helpful.  Patricia, the CNA, was my light in dark days.”

I really enjoyed my stay at Brittany Manor. Everyone was extremely friendly, and made my stay here wonderful. The staff did an amazing job in helping me build up my strength so I could go home. I would most definitely stay here again.

I have been working at the Christian Park Healthcare Center for almost 2 years. Not only we are like a family there, Ciena really takes care of their employees and supports a career growth, sponsors training and pays for school for people who take their job seriously. I am thankful for the opportunities this company has given me. I enjoy improving lives of residents and people in the community who needs our help. I love my coworkers, residents are my friends and over all I can't be happier.

Fenton gives great care to all its residents. The staff and administrators are compassionate and top-notch, and make sure each person is treated with respect and dignity. Plus, they are a lot of fun! I highly recommend Fenton Health Care! 🌻🌻🌻

"Everyone was so kind and made me laugh. Therapy got me started in the right direction. The facility was very clean, and it was not like a nursing home at all. I had a very pleasant experience."

There comes a time in life when the only really important thing for consideration is "Will my loved one be well cared for here?" We had toured several facilities, my wife and I, in preparation for that dreaded day. My wife, Joyce, Has that terrible disease of Alzheimer's, and the Laurels of Dekalb was our choice. I say our choice, for that although she was progerssing, as all do with this disease, she was part of the decision making. Before considering a facility we never made an appointment because there are care givers who would be certain "things were in place", if they knew a potential customer was coming to visit.

From our first exposure to the Laurel's it ranked way up there as far as cleanliness, friendly staff and resident room tidiness. We were met by the Administrator and as we were introduced to everyone from dietary to marketing, names were used for us as well as staff members. The smell of soiled clothing and/or to sleeping materials is a real turnoff for me. I have never lost sleep wondering if she is receiving the best care available, because I know in my heart of hearts that the Laurel's is the best of the best. I must say, in all my visits, only once did the smell strike me, and I have been there many, many times. An occasional accident is bound to happen, but for the smell to be prevalent and pervasive is not.

My wife, Joyce, receives better care than I could possibly provide. For consideration is around the clock nursing, administration of meds, monitoring, nutrition, hygiene and ambulation. The average person is unable to sustain any, let alone all of them, over time. I did it for over 6 years and let me say, "It took its toll".

The staff of the Laurel's has been more accommodating than could ever have been expected. To hear a RN or CNA say to a resident that they "love them" is more than just words. Think of how comforting this must be to one in the "memory care unit" who may have an occasional visitor. We do not know what those with dementia or Alzheimer's are able to process, but to see a smile come across their face is certainly rewarding to both the resident and to the caregiver.

How do you put thousands of thoughts into a few words is challenging, but I have done my best to convey by heartfelt thanks to God for guiding us to the Laurel's of DeKalb.

My favorite features of Bluffs Park were good food and great staff. The therapists were wonderful and pushed me to do more each day. I would absolutely recommend Bluffs Park to others. I am so grateful my doctor knew of this place.

My mom was there after a pelvic fracture for rehabilitation. The entire staff there was so friendly, empathetic, and helpful! From the front desk to social workers, food service, PT, OT, and nursing staff - just amazing people. A special shout-out to Dee, who was an angel in taking care of my mom. I hope we don't have to use their services again, but if we do, I will be very confident my mom is being very well taken care of!
