When my mother fell and broke her shoulder, it became clear that she should not be living alone. She needed assistance...and perhaps more than she would admit to. Since I live in Chicago, finding her a new place to live that I was also comfortable with long distance, was a real challenge! When my mother was in rehab, I went to CA, and was fortunate to meet Sharon my last night there. We immediately hit it off. After talking to Sharon for while, and touring her beautiful home, I was sure that THIS is where my mother was meant to live! There are the bedrooms for resident sleep in, but also plenty of space for them to entertain guests or have a little private time. They are NOT all cramped in together like in some places. A few months later, I went for an extended visit, and was able to see the daily goings-on at Laylor Care Home. I could not have placed my mother in a better place. It is so clean, so bright, so CARING....this is exactly perfect for her. The residents all have a personal relationship with Sharon and the people that come in and out for various therapies each day. Sharon is amazingly tuned in to each resident's personality, and takes care to make sure that each resident gets the thing that they need...whether that is a macaroon for the sweet-tooth in the group, or a personal outing for a haircut, each resident there is treated with respect and love. This home could not have a more appropriate name...it is, in every sense of the word...a CARE home. If you are in search of a place for your own family member, please start here. You will save yourself the months of looking at unsuitable places that I went through! No other residential care facility measures up once you raise the bar as far as Sharon has done....

Laylor Care Home is everything who they say they are and more. My dad met with an unfortunate accident where he would require total care. Being a public health nurse for over 25 years, I am all too familiar with the with the structure and routine of care homes. When I first walked into this home, it gave me a feel of a bed and breakfast. After screening the administrator, who is a practicing registered nurse, I was impressed with not only her expertise but the passion and love she displayed for her residents. She lives on site so she is able to deliver hands on care. The room my dad chose had a fireplace and French doors. My dad needed frequent trips to the hospital which the administrator took care and assigned caregivers to sit with my dad and deliver hands on care. My dad has always been straight forward and direct and compliments does not come easily. It was a surprise to me when he commented that he felt he is being treated like a "king". This gave me a sense of peace that my dad was well taken care of. I have witnessed first hand, on many occasions, the staff attentiveness to details for their residents and I would recommend this place to all those who value peace of mind. This administrator shared with me that she strives for perfection in order to maintain excellence. I see this with her staff and her delivery of care. I rate this place a 5 plus star. read more
