The facility offers private and semi-private rooms with modern amenities to help residents feel comfortable and at home. Life Care Center of LaGrange is a non-profit skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility, so people find that the clinical team comes together much like family, welcoming new admissions and working closely for the good of each resident.
The staff includes nurses and therapists available around the clock, offering 24-hour skilled nursing care, as well as rehabilitation services like physical, occupational, and speech therapy.
