Having to make the difficult decision to move my husband to assisted living accommodations, ALL the staff made him feel welcomed from the very beginning. Carteret House offered cost effective excellent care while helping smooth the transition.

my father has been here since the beginning of Dec 2022, the woman who enters any resident medications and doctor orders is clueless, i have been told many many untrue things, they will not follow doctors orders and i was even told they cannot manually take blood pressure!! im looking into removing my Dad from this facility, he likes the med techs, and the other residents, but he is not being cared for properly, and his medications are in a constant state of confusion 🤬 the state need to step in and audit this place , i feel sorry for all the residents that cannot advocate for themselves, or have no one to oversee that their medications and care is being properly administered

I have to say how disappointed I am with this place. I stopped in to visit with someone and not only was the roommate handed medication that wasn’t theirs but the level of uncaring behavior was just awful. I walked by a cart on my way to the bathroom that was left alone and it had what looked like medication of some sort just laying out for anyone to grab if they wanted to!! What if a kid had walked by and grabbed it? Even if it wasn’t anything but aspirin. I worked in a nursing home many years ago and even back then it wasn’t okay to leave medicine out unattended. And maybe the aides could take it down a little bit when they are chatting with each other. I thought I was in an episode of Days of Our Lives at one point.

Management is the root of all problems. Medications not being administered to residents, either not getting reordered or lack of just giving it to the resident: management. Employees neglecting residents: management. No communication to the family’s about change of status or care: management. The turnaround on new staff is through the roof is because of management. Please do not bring your loved ones here. They deserve better.
