Our trip to Tractor supply to get a bird feeder and seed. My mother in law is always happy, being well cared for at Vernon Manor. The lockdown unit is continuously well staffed and the care takers, Aids and nurses are very upbeat and attentive. Expect to be greeted with a smile and positive attitude. The care is priceless 👏🏼

I have visited several people in the past month. Every time I come in I am greeted by a friendly face, nice smile, helpful attitude. And the nurses and aides… always say “hello” some singing, some dancing. my friends that I visit have been well taken care of by very attentive staff. The food looks good and healthy, although I have not tried it, I’m told it’s “not bad at all” I’d recommend this facility for any of my family and friends.

I feel much more at ease now. I was considering bringing my mom to New Jersey to be closer to me. I changed my mind. I have to share about a wonderful CNA named Chantel. Although she wasn't assigned to care for my mom, she went above and beyond to help us. She spent time playing cards with my mom and even cut out Valentine hearts for her. Chantel is an outstanding employee, and I hope your team continues to hire more compassionate individuals like her!

My mother fell at home and broke her leg, after her surgery we chose Vernon Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center because of all the positive reviews that we read online. We also took a tour (unscheduled and they were happy to accommodate). The staff is very friendly, the facility is nice and clean and it was so beautifully decorated at Christmas time. The facility feels warm and inviting and the rooms are spacious. So far her stay has been comfortable, her case manager, aides, nurses and therapists are all doing a great job caring for her and with the same goal to get her better and back home. They also keep her entertained by bringing her to the weekly activities like bingo, live music, movie time, crafting (she made a cute snowman for her room and painted a picture of the northern lights so far). The staff really cares about their patients and making sure they are comfortable. It means the world to us to see a friendly and happy staff because my mother is one of the most happy and friendliest person I've ever met so the atmosphere is just right. Oh and if you visit during meal time you'll walk in and instantly smell the lovely aroma of home cooking. Our experience so far has been nothing but positive and we are very pleased with Vernon Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center. Pics of mom's art below.
