Our team of professionals is committed to creating an environment that makes both our short-term and longer-term guests feel at home.  

Our acclaimed short-term rehabilitation program offers physical, occupational and speech therapy sessions up to seven days a week. Therapists work with each rehab guest’s doctor to customize a program that is specific to his or her needs. And while they’re healing, our short-term guests can enjoy a choice menu and private suites with telephone, cable TV and other amenities. When guests are ready to go home, a therapist will perform a home evaluation to ensure that a safe and successful discharge.  

We welcome and honor our long-term guests as well, considering them members of our ever-growing Laurel family. To us, caring means being a companion and treating each guest with the utmost dignity, respect and compassion. It’s what we call The Laurel Way of Caring, and we do it every day.
