Laurel Square Healthcare And Rehabilitation Center is an 87-bed subacute rehab and skilled nursing facility, where most days you'll find about 77 residents going about their routines and the staff trying their best to keep everyone comfortable and active, and while people have said the place feels warm and homelike and that it's good for both short-term rehab and longer care stays, there have been some problems reported, like issues with ostomy care and keeping medical equipment running safely, so that's important to note. This place offers skilled nursing care 24/7, and the staff provides around 3.88 nurse hours for each resident every day, but with a nurse turnover rate of 32.9%, sometimes you'll see new faces taking care of folks, and that can be a challenge when it comes to building trust and making sure care plans are followed the same way every time. Laurel Square has all sorts of therapy options-physical, speech, occupational, and respiratory therapies-plus programs for complex wound care, post-hospital recovery, restraint reduction, rehab dining, specialized colostomy and urostomy care, and intensive orthopedic rehabilitation, so seniors who need extra support after a hospital stay can find what they need here. Residents can join in for recreation activities, educational and entertaining events that help them socialize and make friends, and there are some modern features meant to keep people comfortable and help them feel more at home, like restaurant-style dining and family involvement in the care process. The ownership mainly belongs to Meir Gelley, with Sheldon Braun and Leah Gelley holding smaller shares, and Nationwide Healthcare Services manages the place along with Sheldon Braun since October 2015, so there's some stability in how things are run. Infection control measures are in place to help keep people healthy, and the therapists use advanced equipment for rehabilitation, which is important for those who need intense therapy and support. While some folks have mentioned the caring staff and homelike setting, families might want to be aware of the reported deficiencies and turnover, but for those needing a smaller center focused on rehab, wound management, and personalized care plans, Laurel Square can provide those services in a close-knit community environment.
