Place is clean, they were able to accommodate the resident who is one of my best friends, who can be picky, needy and hard to please. She received room change upon request and staff was very professional and understanding. The new room was bright, clean and truly lifted her spirits to encourage and help a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

They almost killed my father on Father's day!!! I found him cyanotic(blue and lacking oxygen) although he was supposed to be monitored for oxygen days before. Thank God I raised hell we got him to the hospital in time and they saved my father's life but it was a very close call. When he arrived at the hospital he was at 60% oxygen and covered in feces. The staff here is awful, abusive and they let my father deteriorate in a matter of weeks if I had not been visiting him regularly he would have died. I lost him in the system when he had his stroke and had no choice about his placement. Now that I do he was moved as fast as possible and his clothes are still missing. Oh and they had the nerve to give me a father's day certificate to commemorate the day they almost killed my Dad. Only put your family here if you want them to die! All the bad reviews are true. As for the message they sent in response, I tried endless to work with staff and the administrator prior to this incident. They will kill your loved one!!! These people do not care!!!

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I wanted to share our experience with Laconia Nursing Home. Moving a loved one into a nursing home is never easy, and we were nervous. The staff here really put us at ease. Veema, the Director of Nursing, truly cares and is very involved. Rose, the RN Supervisor, has been patient and clear anytime we had questions. Ms. Nickolas has also been incredibly kind and helpful. Most importantly, my loved one is treated with respect and compassion. That’s what matters most to our family.
