I only did the initial visit. So, my observations are limited. It is a very clean facility. I observed the staff interacting with the patients. They showed a concern for patients, and I liked their attitude. There was a Valentines party at one end of the facility, and many of the residents were enjoying themselves.

Not really sure how you could give this Nursing home anything less than a 5 star rating. Mom has been there just a couple of months and while she is not happy that she has to be in a nursing home she is very content and happy and Lauderdale Christian. Wonderful care by a wonderful staff with a wonderful attitude. You can tell that the employees do not have a job, they have a ministry. We are fortunate to have a facility like this available.

Staff here are very caring and take good care of the residents. They are easy to work with and respectful. The grounds and building are kept clean and well maintained. The assisted living facility across the parking lot is also run by them and is very nice.
