Mostly good, but....
reviewed on: 10/19/2016 by HillaryMy mother just moved into Mountain Laurel. Initially the marketing person and nurse were super friendly and really kind and understanding. Given it was such a stressful transition for me and mom, I really appreciated their reassurance. Creating a care plan was done a little too casually I thought, considering how much we pay for it. I don't think the nurse really did a thorough assessment. After the first weekend when my mom was kind of left alone to figure things out on her own, I stepped in and emailed the nurse. She called me and seemed a bit annoyed that I was requesting more help for mom. I patiently discussed the situation with her and we agreed to more care. I never received anything in writing. I think that would be helpfu..
Friendly, accommodating staff!
reviewed on: 11/09/2015 by AnonymousMy loved one has only been here a few weeks but so far our experience with Brookdale Mountain Laurel has been a very good one! The staff here is wonderful, they're just really nice people! They've been incredibly accommodating, and they get right on top of any request or suggestions you make! The facility itself is clean and well kept, and they take great care of the people who live here! It is very expensive, however.
Recently bought by Emeritus
reviewed on: 08/12/2013 by TrishIt seems that Mt Laurel was recently (in the last two years) purchase by Emeritus, and this has not been a good thing. We had moved my father there on recommendation from a friend (and after touring that and other facilities, of course), but the comparison of her experience from a few years ago and today are extreme, and upsetting. While the staff are all very pleasant and cordial, the facility is clearly understaffed, and the staff that they do have is not well trained. The nursing director, who thankfully was recently let go, was absolutely useless. I believe her replacement is trying, but there has been only minimal improvement so far. Some of the nursing aides are very good, but some clearly do not care, and should be replaced. The food service is very spotty, meals are often served cold and takes up to an hour to serve. Overall, had we not been in a somewhat desperate situation (as I'm sure many families find themselves), we would have taken more time to do more research, and likely would have chosen another facility. Sadly, most around here are owned by Emeritus, and so are probably much the same.

Mixed reviews
reviewed on: 10/12/2020 by AnonymousThe care services vary day to day as well as the friendliness of the staff members. The activities also vary throughout the week especially now with COVID. Basically the thing we have been concerned with is that it seems like this community is understaffed at times even before COVID. We felt the ratio for staff members to each resident was way to low, and it was worse on the weekends. Some of the staff members were really good and communicated really good, but then some staff members who worked there just seemed to be rushing through things and didn't communicate that well. There were times we saw the staff members speak to each-other and the residents with their mask pulled down which concerned us. To be fair during the worst of COVID, from our understanding they had roughly speaking around ten confirmed cases, but only one loss. We would also received weekly reports during this time, which were very consistent and we appreciated the communication. Our loved one was in memory care, and there isn't a specific individual that just oversees the memory care side, they one an individual that oversees the entire community which we didn't really like. We had an incident over a weekend with a private aid who was taking care of another resident. We noticed she was handling that resident a little rough, so we spoke with the staff and told them our concerns. The private aid found out and came to our loved ones room and belittled us for minutes without an apology. We even reached out to the activities director and executive director about this issue and it was never addressed.
