We were very Leary about having my mom go to Laurel Hill in Grants Pass. Reviews weren’t great, Hearing from other people that it wasn’t a good place. My mom has been there for two weeks after a month and a half stay at the hospital, And a weekend at Royal Gardens. I have to say she got the best care possible at Laurel Hill. The Nurses are top-notch. They are so friendly and take Good care of their patience. All of the CNA’s are very good, very friendly. I can’t say enough good things about this place. She spent one weekend at Royal Gardens, And it was a nightmare. We really didn’t think that we would be able to take my mom home, We thought she would end up in an assisted living. But after being at Laurel Hill for two weeks and getting physical therapy daily and occupational therapy daily, she is coming home tomorrow. We couldn’t be more thankful to all the staff at Laurel Hill for everything they’ve done for my mom and our family. I would recommend this place to anyone. Laurel Hill is a top-notch facility. I give it five stars.

I chose to be in this facility and I made the best choice of all. The team of caregivers and nurses are top of the line. I felt so happy here and was treated like a princess. My recovery was fabulous due to the first class Occupational and Physical team. I highly recommend coming to this facility. ❤️ In addition, The kitchen staff does a great job serving good meals and snacks.

Very impressed with Laurel Hills. My 87 year old mother went in there after a fairly long hospital stay in which we didnt think she would make it. Very weak and not really able to eat , the wonderful attentive staff at Laurel Hills had her ready to return to her independent living facility in less then a month. Nurses, physical therapists, kitchen staff and everyone else who work there were fantastic. The BEST in town. Thank you

I can't say enough good things about this facility. Yes, it is an older building but it is clean and quaint. When you walk in the building the staff greets you with warmth and smiles. My husband is currently under their care and I'm thankful for them. They are very attentive to his needs, and since I'm not local, they communicate with me practically every day. My husband was placed at another facility prior to this one and it was a nightmare. Anyway, the staff here should be commended for going above and beyond to help those who cannot help themselves.

I am very impressed with Laurel Hill. They may not look pretty on the outside but the people and staff there are exceptional. They are always there to show you a friendly smile and they will help as much as they can when you need it. They also will sit there and listen to you if you just need someone to talk to. Choosing Laurel Hill was the best decision I have made. I recommend Laurel Hill to anyone
