My mother is there for rehab. This place is very clean; no unpleasant odor. Staff members are very kind and loving. Wonderful place. Hometown ministries provide live singing/music "Gaither-style" with the interested patients. Impressive!

When you work in long term care you see how much love and devotion your coworkers give to the residents and their families. But when you become the family with the resident that needs the love and care there are no words how much it means to you and your family. Life Care of LaCenter is amazing! My husband came with many challenges that required assistance from everyone. They went above and beyond every day! Thank you to each and every staff member that loved and cared for Steve.

Love going to see my great Aunt here. She really feels at home and they don’t have turn over with staff. My grandmother and another aunt were there in past and it is always friendly and clean.

I provide a service (Diabetic Footwear) at this facility for many year now. I always find it clean and residents very well cared for. Just today as I worked I overheard a CNA going the extra mile to attend to a residents need. I love this place and if I ever had to go into a nursing home I’d choose this one❤️
