My brother is appreciative that he is in a good facility. His only complaint is that he cant use his own bathroom as it's not handicap accessible. Imagine that!

They dona great job taking care of my grandmother. It's sickening seeing old people in nursing homes.. it's very sad how alone some of them are. I brought my grandma to my wedding on Saturday.. I visited her today in Christmas? Not one other family member even called her. This place does a great job.

Many of the workers are caring and dedicated. However, Lawson is a very small town. One or two careless employees can damage the entire reputation of a place so important as a health provider that provides a total lifeline to their clients. I find it disgusting that some of the LPN's are known for violating Hipaa rules. Not only is it illegal, it is immoral. I suggest back ground checks be done often on the employees as i have personally witnessed behavior that is inappropriate for such an environment.

My mom was moved to this place the end of Jan 2020 because the nursing home she had been in was in need of repairs so all the residents had to be moved. From the first day my mom was there, the staff took the best care for her, they had a caring staff & treated my mom so well, taking care of her individual needs. Sadly, my mom passed away on April 3, 2020 during the covid lockdown, the staff was very nice to let us go say bye to her body one last time & they packed up all her belongings & was very nice to get it back to us. Thank you for making mom's last few weeks very nice
