Brother has been in facility for 4months. Nurse Ashley on 3rd floor (with glasses) she’s the BEST! 99% of staff are AWESOME, very helpful and kind. By brother can be a handful, they have patience beyond what I expected. THANK YOU!! Dawn

Today was my first time at Somerset Woods. Actually I didn’t know it even existed. I found everyone to be clean, everyone was courteous, kind and accessible. I didn’t give it a five because my love one just arrived there. I will further access the place as I interact with the staff as for the care for my love one.

Great place, wonderful staff, food is delicious, care is careful and clear and accommodating, plenty of space, gets the job done, people coming and going seem happy and able. Workers seem happy and caring and kind and responsible and willing to go to the ends of the earth for their work ethic. Access is secure and easy in and out. It is near by all the utilities and shopping needs you will be able to find within a 1-3 min drive. Personal preference: I think there can be more basic home supplies in the nourishing rooms, such as a sponge for cleaning, or plastic utensils, or supplies for family or visitors, That being said, I am comparing the basics I experienced from being at the Morris Cancer Center, so I’m a bit spoiled on quality of life. I think I’ll bring my own or buy some supplies at the local shop rite to leave in the nourishing rooms for communal guests to use. I feel like 5 star ratings lead to complacency, so if I could give a 5 star, I would try to. And you aren’t allowed to give a 4.5 @google… so 8/10 or 4/5 seems like a solid rating. Overall. If you want your family to feel loved and cared for, go ahead and choose this home for healing and recovery.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Debra Cook at Somerset Woods Rehabilitation. She was an incredible help when I was trying to get my mother-in-law admitted. From the very beginning, she guided me through the entire process and helped with all of the paperwork that needed to be completed. What stood out most was how quickly she always responded whenever I had a question or needed assistance. No matter how busy she was, she took the time to help and made sure everything was handled properly. Debra is not only professional and knowledgeable, but she is also one of the sweetest and kindest people you could ever speak with. She is very understanding, compassionate, and genuinely cares about helping families during what can be a stressful time. Thanks to Debra, the entire process was much easier than I expected. Somerset Woods Rehabilitation is lucky to have someone as dedicated and caring as her. Thank you, Debra, for all of your help and support!

Somerset Woods is a great place. My aunt stayed here for some time and received lovely care. When she needed to return to a nursing home two years later, Somerset Woods was my first choice. The Admissions Director, Debora, was exceptionally helpful and kind throughout the process. I would recommend this facility.
