The Laurels of Bon Air Staff

Our Staff

What differentiates one skilled nursing & rehabilitation center from another? The answer is... the people who work and reside there! The people set the tone, the atmosphere, and the expectations. At The Laurels of Bon Air, we take great pride in ensuring that everyone feels like part of our family, and that they are treated as special "guests" in our home.

The Laurels of Bon Air employs a team of highly qualified medical professionals, including a Medical Director, Registered Nurses, Restorative Care Nurses, a Wound Care Nurse, state tested Certified Nursing Assistants, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, and a Speech Therapist. Our on-site Rehab, Dietary, Social Work, and Activities departments provide personalized and compassionate care to each guest. From the moment you walk through the front doors, the warmth and caring of the staff will begin to gain your trust and confidence, as they strive to exceed your expectations.

Unlike other facilities that use "contracted" staff members, each member of the team at The Laurels of Bon Air is directly employed, not "contracted". Each Team Member takes great pride in portraying "The Laurel Way of Caring", as they strive for excellence in providing only the highest standard of care and services to every guest, and to every family member and visitor. Come on in! Visit a while! Let us show you our very best... let us show you The Laurel Way.

Tara Davis, RN, Director of Nursing

Tara began her career in nursing as a Certified Nursing Assistant in 1986 at a long-term care facility. She furthered her education with a certificate as a Medical Assistant and received her LPN Degree in 1999 from Richmond Technology Center. Ms. Davis' dedication to the geriatric population led her to pursue her RN Degree which she received in 2003 from Southside Regional School of Nursing. Her career has led her through all phases of long-term care nursing. Ms. Davis joined the team at The Laurels of Bon Air before the doors were even opened as the Assistant Director of Nursing. When the Director of Nursing position became available due to a retirement, Ms. Davis was the logical choice as successor.
