LAURELS OF WORTHINGTON, THE

I was recently taking a tour of your facility. I was impressed with all the . People I met and things I saw. I don't normally like Nursing home food but this was so Good. The meatloaf is the bomb. Good job on all your staff

I am/was a resident of this facility

I was a resident of Laurels of Worthington. They just didn't seem to care that much about their patients. The food was edible at best, but I just did not receive very good treatment there. That's why I ended up in a new facility. I initially went there because my heart went into AFib and was hospitalized. Then they sent me to Laurels of Worthington. I was there bedridden pretty much all the time. Then I had extremely low oxygen levels, and they sent me to the hospital for that, and they sent me back to La…

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Staff was wonderful, my relative was treating with caring and respect

Not recommended

Rooms are small. Nursing aids are slow in responses of patient needs. Very understaffed on weekends with no apparent persons of supervision available on weekends and holidays. Patient doors are often closed by aids and blinds closed so patients will sleep all day on weekends. Therapy personnel appear to be caring and steadfast. Nursing staff is poor and rude ...standing in hallways and observing visitors . It seems as though there are no basic rules or management oversight.. I would not recommend this facility.

Questions to nursing staff are always answered with I don’t know, I wasn’t here earlier. Never, I will find out and let you know. Requests to have the nursing director…

Don’t go here.

This is not a good place. Aides are not attentive and it’s not unusual for them to take 15 minutes or longer to respond to a patient’s call button. The Laurels has no internal standard about how long it should take to get a response. Nurses and therapists don’t agree on what is best for the patient. A nurse brought the wrong medication to my family member/patient. Rooms are very small and shared. No private rooms. Patient and family are not kept informed of patient’s progress unless repeated, explicit questions are…
