I have had the pleasure of working for LHHR for about eight years now. I actually spend more time there than I do with my own family, but I consider our sweet little residents as part of my family too! They have shown me so much love, compassion, and true appreciation throughout the years. I can't imagine a job that is more fulfilling!

Lawrence Hall is my family away from home! Some of the most caring, loving people I know who take great care of the residents!

Not a great place to send your love one. The PT people there are amazing. But other than that horrible. It might have been nice at once but has gone down hill. I will never let the hospital send my grandma there again.
