My stay for very much needed speech , physical and occupational after 2 surgeries was worthwhile. The speech therapist showed me a number of daily exercise that aided in my ability to swallow & ease throat didscomfort. The physical and occupational therapist are excepional. My balance has improved considerable. I can use my hand after years of not being able. As fir the nurses and aides, they were very helpful and went above and beyond to assist patients. . All staff members from administration ,, entertainment, kitchen, house keeping…… were pleasant, helpful and did everything possible to make my stay productive, comfortable and enjoyable. An excepional facility.

I have been living at LakeLand for about 18 years now, this place feels like home. One of the things I love most is that we have our free will and independence. it is very easy to live here and enjoy your days. I’m a resident volunteer, I like spending my time working at the gift shop. The CNAs, the recreation team, and administrators are good people who care. Lakeland is a place that’s also supportive of our religion and spiritual beliefs. Every Tuesday and Thursday, we gather with other residents to say the Rosary, and we also have Mass on the first Tuesday of every month. I’m very grateful to call this place home

Today at Lakeland Health Care I visited the car show and had a really great experience. I honestly didn’t even know this place was here until today. The staff was incredibly kind, and I saw nurses carefully helping patients outside so they could enjoy the event. I also saw the recreation director and what I assume was the recreation staff helping out with patients as well, making sure everyone was comfortable and included. It was really heartwarming to see how caring everyone was. The car show itself was also awesome with so many cool vehicles on display. If I ever need care when I’m older, this is definitely a place I would feel comfortable being at.

I cannot say enough good things about Lakeland Nursing and Rehabilitation. The facility is clean, bright, and genuinely feels like a community. A special shoutout to the Administrator, whose leadership is reflected in every corner of this building. They are incredibly approachable, deeply involved in daily operations, and always take the time to listen to families' needs. The entire staff is compassionate, attentive, and treats residents with the utmost dignity. Knowing our loved one is in such capable and caring hands brings our family immense peace of mind. Highly recommend!

My experience here was genuinely positive. The team treated me with respect and patience during a difficult time, and I never felt judged. The environment was calm, clean, and supportive which made it easier to focus on recovery. Rehab team is phenomenal, they go above and beyond and they motivate you so much. Nursing is excellent. I am very thankful for guidance and care I received here for my short term care.
