My husband Dan was inpatient for 19 days for rehab after being in 2 hospitals following a cardiac arrest on March 31st. The care he received while there was excellent. The Nurses, staff were helpful and professional. The Physical Therapy department were instrumental in his recovery. They worked with him 5 days a week making sure he would be able to do the 5 steps to enter our home. Dan was able to receive his dialysis right at the facility which was so important. They were very informative to us regarding procedures and when preparing to come home made sure we were able to transition to outpatient dialysis. The Discharge Manager made sure all of the durable medical equipment was ordered and Home Nursing was requested for on going PT, OT and nursing, making going home much easier. If we ever need to have Skilled Nursing in the future. I would choose The Laurels of Gahanna again. They really made my time there very pleasant and helped me know Dan was being taken care of.

UPDATE NEW STAY I decided to go back to laurals at gahanna after surgery because I enjoyed my 1st stay. Once again the place was very clean and no odor as some claim. I would of given the facility another 4.5 if it wasn't for some of the nurses. My aides were amazing, especially Casie and Emily. Casie deserves acknowledgement and a raise. She goes above and beyond for us and obviously cares. The cook deserves a praise as well. I didn't care for the daily meals, but he fixed me some grilled cheese even though he didn't had to do so. The only nurse that was nice and unproblematic was the nurse from Poland I believe. Knowledgeable, quick and kind. I had a nurse in training that gave me a oxygen machine and walked out without turning the oxygen on. Wtf?! It took them almost an hour before someone turned it on. There were 3 nurses, their English was so hard to understand. The am nurse, smelled so strong that I couldn't breath right. She also delivered my meds way too late and was on a private call on her cell while giving me my meds without gloves on. Not one of the nurses were wearing gloves, gross! Super rude!! I didn't get my afternoon meds until almost midnight!! I didnt get all my meds but they tried to give me meds that I wasn't even on for years. They claim they went by the list from the hospital. I find that very unbelievable since i gave the hospital my med list. I believe the nurses went by the med list from my previous stay. Two of those nurses, male and a female, refused me my antibiotics that was prescribed by my surgeon. I missed 1 dose each day. They were rude and showed no sympathy at all. If the aid was on break the nurses would not cover the light. I had to have my daughter call because no one came to assist me. Once that call was made the nurse supervisor came with the male nurse right away and than he handled the situation. It shouldn't be like that. There are people that can't call for family or the facility. THESE 3 NURSES MAKE YOUR FACILITY LOOK BAD! FIRE THEM! I would go back again but would make sure to write down their names to make sure they would be addressed right away. THE END I hate to say it but I really enjoyed my stay there. They had all the special equipment that I need. The staff was very nice. Most of them have a great super sense of humor. The day time nurse , I can't recall her name, was very attentive, knowledgeable and thought me alot about my illness. People say that the facility smells. Absolutely not true. I would send my fam n friends here and I would come back too. Thank you to everyone that I worked with..
