Is The Laurels of Mt. Pleasant a good nursing home? Reviews, ratings and inspection record

CMS rates it 5 out of 5 stars overall, above the Michigan average of 3.2. Inspectors issued 14 citations in the last three years. CMS reports no fines or payment denials in that time. For short-term rehab patients CMS rates quality 2 out of 5; for long-term residents, 4 out of 5. Those results differ a lot, so ask about the unit your family member would be on.
