    What to Consider About Assisted Living in Woodcliff Lake

    Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey was named for the man-made reservoir the town surrounds. The Woodcliff Lake area offers two parks where seniors, who comprise about 17 percent of all residents, can get take a stroll or play tennis among lakeside views. Seniors in need of assistance with daily living can choose from three facilities in town, and another 54 in towns nearby.  

    Assisted living facilities in New Jersey are licensed by the Department of Health and Human Services and are known as facilities that provide 24-hour support to four or more adults in a home-like setting. They emphasize independence and dignity while providing personal and health care services such as medication management and prepared meals.

    • The Woodcliff Lake area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Nyack Hospital in the event of medical emergencies or illness. 

    • The climate in Woodcliff Lake is quite average compared to the rest of the United States. Seniors can enjoy summer highs of 85 in July, though the January low temperature of 21 degrees might be too chilly for some. 

    • Seniors with respiratory conditions should consider how living in Woodcliff Lake may affect them. The American Lung Association gave Bergen County a failing grade for its ozone quality, which could aggravate illness and asthma in some seniors.
