Employee Reviews for Laurel Health Care Company in Midlothian, Virginia
2.86 out of 5 stars. Based on 7 reviews
Overall, employees have mixed feelings about working for Laurel Health Care Company in the Midlothian, VA area. Many appreciate the team environment and recognition of hard work, but there is a high turnover rate due to being underpaid and working short. The work environment can be stressful, and there is a lack of leadership and trust. There have been outbreaks that were ignored or kept a secret by management, and housekeeping is not up to par. The job itself is okay, but sometimes more is asked than what can be given due to lack of staff. However, employees have enjoyed the flexibility and working with the social worker and observing what they do on a day to day basis.Employee Reviews for Laurel Health Care Company

Wonderful facility with compassionate and dedicated staff. They know the residents each as an individual person and really care. Appreciate all they do!
I am so grateful that Laurels of Willow Creek is offering the outdoor visiting now! I have been able to visit with my family member outside during a time that is convenient for me. This has made such a huge difference in my grandmother's attitude, and it reassures me that she is receiving the best care. As someone who has worked in healthcare for almost 20 years, finding a facility that is trustworthy is very important. I am glad I can count on Willow Creek to care for my loved one, especially during this scary time.
After nearly 6 months at this facility I was wonderfully cared for by AMAZING nurses, aides, therapists and many other hard working people. My stay here was amazing and I would highly recommend this place to anyone!!!
I work there as a contractor through an agency. its short staff like any other nursing facility and or hospital but the nurses treat the residents well
I am a community partner with the team at The Laurels of WIllow Creek. They are easy to work with, compassionate about the care their guests/our patients receive, and are very responsive.
The customer service here is very terrible! I arrived and honestly me and my grandma were let in by a nice mam and he was very helpful and welcoming! when we got to my grandfather's room, it took almost 30 mins for someone to come and change him, the nurses can be very rude and snippy, i was ignored by one nurse and just very bad communication, didn't feel welcomed AT ALL and if i could i would have my family member somewhere else. DO BETTER, if you dont want to help people, dont be a nurse!
I would not wish this place on my worst enemy. Would rate it zero stars if pissible. People who can't feed themselves would starve if not for family and friends. Aides just drop food on table, quite often out of reach, and leave. Incontinent patients are handled very rough. Don't let the entrance lobby fool you. Walk through the hallways.
This review is about the skilled nursing short-term stay (SNF) at Willow Creek. PROS: There are some genuinely kind, caring, competent, friendly staff and therapists. The activities staff is great, and the activities room is staffed and available on the weekends. Large gym. Fresh cookies at 2:30pm. Has a lot of potential if they put people (their own staff and patients) before profits.CONS: Unacceptable care for incontinent patients and patients who cannot walk, transfer independently, or verbalize their needs. Poor wound management (although they advertise on their website "wound healing and wound prevention program"). My father was there for 5 weeks with a simple wound on his butt, but it didn't heal because they regularly left him in urine-soaked diapers/pants with an uncovered wound, despite discussions with nursing staff about putting him on a schedule to keep him clean and dry. I was there almost daily and often cleaned/changed him and dressed the wound myself because no one was available to do it. Call bells were not answered in timely manner or not at all. My father was initially given a moldy mattress. Then a worn out mattress with a huge dip in the middle. This was finally replaced when I raised a stink with the ADON. Questionable cleaning/disinfection procedures: a previous patient's supplies stayed in the room for over a week despite my telling staff that it was there PRIOR to my father moving in to the room. Understaffed; lack of training of many direct care staff in incontinence management, wound prevention and management, and protecting patient modesty and dignity. Apathetic or no response to these concerns by the Administrator and nursing director. There's more, but I'll stop here. You have a choice of SNFs / nursing homes for yourself or your loved one. Don't make my mistake. Go elsewhere. This facility has been reported.(After a week back home at assisted living, my father's wound is almost healed because they have been keeping him clean and dry. A home health wound nurse is following him.)
I wouldnt bring my dog to stay at this place. If you MUST place your loved one there, due to finances or whatever, find yourself a good ombudsmen in advance - you'll thank me later.
I'll write a more extensive review later. For now what you to know is don't put your loved ones here here. Especially if the elderly. A rehab facility they're not they want to be but they're not. You only get therapy 30 minutes that's it. 30 minutes of speech 30 minutes of OT and 30 minutes of Pt. The therapy staff is wonderful! But if you want real rehab go to Sheltering Arms they know what they're doing and it is no comparison.
My mother was here for a short period, while the asst nursing director Deanna was most excellent and many of the Nurses under her were as well, including OT and PT, however, there was only a small handful of CNAs that we're qualified and cared. Watching the others handle my mother leftMe in tears, literally man handling her at times. What's worse is the inability of those who work the weekend shift demanding originals of legal paperwork as it's their policy and then it became law. What really chaps my butt us that they had my mom sign documents in an altered and in fit state to do so. So after the fact I sign it as her atty in fact under the power of attorney.Once my mother passed, I started to receive bills from them, I sent them letters notifying them of my mothers death, included a death certificate and the fact that the estate was at a zero balance and unable to pay this bill, had to do that twice. The third bill, yes you read right! It's now in my name. So some nitwit in billing ILLEGIALLY changed the account to my name!I call and leave messages but they are never available, I'm told they will call back, fat chance! Time to get the attorney involved, not to mention the FTC and any other alphabet agency. Game on Laurels! Batter up!
Not a good overall experience. Rehab exercises were sufficient; however, support services were inadequate. Food was not good. Friendly staff but a fair amount of red tape and hassle to discharge.
Just an honest review here. Place is immaculate. Food needs to improve.Weekend care could be better, maybe short-staffing has impacted this somewhat. Where they really excel is in the areas of coordination, communication, and compassion. No doubt at all how much they care about the patients and their families. It was a pleasure dealing with the staff as we tried to navigate all of the issues my mother faced. She is coming home much better than she went in and it is all due to the wonderful staff. Thank You.
Don't let your loved ones be put in this awful facility that changes policy and visiting hours daily to cover up who knows what. Shameful.
Don’t go here please in less than 8 days my husband has a UTI SEPTIC PARTIAL COLLAPSED LUNG AND A LUNG INFECTION PLEASE STAY AWAY
I was a patient for 10-12 days. The most awful place I could have imagined, with the exception of the PT and OT. The bed was halflf filled with material and seemed.a half mattress on rocks on the forest floor. The assistants (not nurses), were loud at every hour, and would not answer help lights. The nutritionist never could get your food planned. Occasionally a good nurseI pray that I am NEVER SENT THERE AGAIN@
My husband stayed at this facility for just a little under a month before we gave them our 5 day notice that I was taking him home. My husband was involved in a serious motorcycle accident and suffered 2 broken legs, pelvis, and other injuries. I choose this place because it was close to the hospital and I got good vibes from their website and from the admissions team but it was probably one of the worst experiences that my husband and I both faced. From the time he was admitted to the time he left was a nightmare. They had none of his pain meds and went well over 12 hours in excruciating pain before the pharmacy delivered them and also didn’t have his insulin and went far too long without it. Along with broken bones my husband also suffered a TBI and has weak muscles in his hands. He dropped a pain pill in front of his nurse and she put no effort into finding it and made him wait another 4 hours before receiving another one. He once dropped his pills on the floor and the nurse was going to pick them back up off the floor and make him take them. That is unacceptable and just disgusting. I’ve been on the phone with my husband for over an hour on many occasions and he had been hitting the call button over and over again and no one would ever come in his room. I had to hang up several times and call up there myself and make someone go check up on him. He is also diabetic and they did a horrible job controlling his sugars. Half the time they either under corrected or over corrected his sugars. It’s pretty sad that I had to get an order from his doctor to keep juice on his bedside table at all times because it takes them 40 minutes to correct a low blood sugar or that I had sneak him glucose shots to have because the nurses took far too long to respond to calls. He would get his meals but hadn’t been given his insulin yet or had his sugars checked. They never washed him and came home absolutely filthy and had a lot of gross crusted stuff around his Catheter. The nurses had horrible bedside manner. PT and OT were probably the only good thing about that place and even then they didn’t do much. I drove 2 hours to do a training session and didn’t do anything and then wanted me to drive another 2 hours to do more training when all of that could have been done the 1st time I was there. My husband would call me bawling his eyes out because of how horrible that place was. His social worker put very little effort into finding him a home health agency to take his case. I was told that she was working hard but the day we left we never heard a single word from her again. It took his primary doctor all of 2 hours to find someone. We left that place with no instructions on how to care for his wounds or his catheter. Thankfully he has a wonderful primary doctor that took care of everything we need. They never gave us back his clothes that I brought to him and even sent him home in another man’s boxers. I spoke to several members of the staff about my concerns but my last email sent to Deanna went unaddressed. She told me she was looking into everything but then not a single word from her since.Please do not send a loved one here. Find somewhere better.
Recently my mother had to be medically transported from Florida to the Laurels at Willow Creek for a brief stay. It was a stressful time as our family was deeply concerned about my mother's well-being. The Director of Marketing, Pamela, made sure everything about the transition was smooth from handling the complicated paperwork to ensuring her health care personnel were ready to receive her and help. It was truly a blessing that Pamela was in our life for this time, and we are grateful to all who took such good care of my mother at the Laurels of Willow Creek. Thank you!
The nurses are very nice. Holly in physical therapy is very good. Laura the occupational therapist is always kind.
AT Home Care Home Health and Hospice work very closely with The Laurels of Willow Creek. The community is always clean and the team members are very friendly. My clinical co-workers are very complimentary of the patient care and communication. Whether staying for short-term rehab or long term care, I would recommend The Laurels of Willow Creek.
Our family experienced Very frustrating and inadequate nursing for mothers rehab particularly during overnight hours. Physical therapy team was excellent and admissions portrays an overall positive expectation despite cautionary comments from others regarding the care previously received. Some nurses were rude with unprofessional attitude.
This place is a great establishment. They do a great job bridging the gap between the hospital and home. I am very happy with my stay here and the therapy and care I have received. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you to all of the staff for everything you have done for myself and my family!
I am currently long-term resident living here full-time. I always feel safe and cared for here. The therapy department does an amazing job and works so hard. The aides and nurses really seem to care about us. I love the activities staff and all they do for us and all of the activities they offer. The administrator really shows us he cares about our concerns.
