The Laurel Way of Caring...Comes from Within

Welcome to The Laurels of DeKalb.  To us, caring is more than providing excellent skilled nursing and rehabilitation services.  It's also being a companion and treating each guest with the utmost dignity, respect and compassion.  It's what we call "The Laurel Way of Caring", and it comes from within each one of us.

The Laurels

Nestled in a beautiful, safe, quiet residential area, The Laurels of DeKalb is within walking distance of a church and park. Our newly remodeled building, featuring a secured covered outdoor patio and cozy lounge areas, provides a perfect setting for quiet time or social activity.

Rehabilitation

The professional staff at The Laurels of DeKalb can assist you in your transition from hospital to home. With our comprehensive rehabilitation programs, we specialize in helping you regain physical independence after your stay in the hospital. Our programs include physical, occupational, respiratory and speech therapy. We work with your physician to design a personal "care plan" to help you achieve the fullest recovery possible. If needed, we offer outpatient physical therapy services when you return home or to a lesser care environment.

Skilled Nursing and Alzheimer’s Care

Should you require an extended or short-term stay, we provide the most advanced medical care available outside of a hospital. We offer 24-hour skilled nursing care and around-the-clock admissions. The Laurels of DeKalb offers a special care unit to comfort those with Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related illnesses. Our short-term stay services include rehabilitation, respite, hospice and adult day care.
