“Very friendly and helpful staff. Spoke with the Rabbi and had a wonderful interaction. So glad our friend and fellow congregant Richard Schwartz is getting such wonderful care.”

“The activities department is top notch. When my mom was in the rehab facility, they gave her something to look forward to every day. And when she wasn’t up to taking part or leaving her room, they came to her to check on her and say hello. She was able to forget her troubles and have some fun.”

“The clubhouse is one of the largest in NJ and the ballroom has a stage and they book excellent shows. A couple of years ago they refreshed the decor and in my opinion cheapened it up with modern look rather than an excellent traditional decor. It is well taken care of and we are proud to show it off.”
