What this means for your family

Lahser Hills features a standout activities program and a dedicated social work team that many families find comforting. However, the facility has a concerning history of reports regarding night-shift staffing and hygiene. We strongly recommend conducting an unannounced visit during evening or weekend hours to observe the actual level of care and responsiveness firsthand.
