The Best Memory Care Communities in Union County, NJ

"Spring Hills has exceptional activities staff. Speaking as a family member of a resident in the memory care section, known as Spring Cottage, I can say that the activities staff are incredible. They provide physical activity such as chair yoga and group exercise, as well as involve the Spring Cottage residents in events, BBQs, and other activities held in the community. They are really incredible at keeping them engaged! Well done."

CareOne at Livingston Assisted Living also features a dedicated Harmony Village unit, where senior residents who have Alzheimers disease, dementia or other memory conditions receive specialized memory care while living their lives to the fullest in a supportive community.

"Corinne was very knowledgeable and guided us through the many living options and variable prices of this new community. She listened to what our specific needs were. She has followed up with several emails to see if she could further assist us, without making it feel like a high pressured sales pitch-which it certainly wasn’t. This community won’t be available till Dec/Jan so. O final decision has been made."

"My husband with Lewy Body Dementia recently became a patient at Arden Courts West Orange. So far I am extremely happy with the care he has been given and the staff are extremely nice and always willing to help out as he can be a handful sometimes. The facility is lovely nad is very clean - his room is always tidy and bed made and the laundry done. My husband is not exactly able to participate in many activities. The grounds are lovely and we do sit outside alot when i visit. I am very happy and would recommend Arden Courts"

"Brookdale West Orange was very nice. I liked everything about it. The staff who assisted me during the tour was very thorough, very nice, and did a great follow-up. We went to see the room to see what it was like, and it was very nice."

"Fox Trail Memory Care Living was very nice. The lady explained everything very clearly and showed me around the whole facility. She was very knowledgeable. The tour was good. I was shown a room, the bedroom, where they eat and where they can go outside, walk around, and sit outside if they want to. The areas that they showed me were good."

"I toured Brighton Gardens of Florham Park. The people are very friendly. They have experienced staff on hand who take care of the people there. It was very clean and modern. It was exceptional in many ways. I wish my home were as good as Brighton Gardens. The staff was very accommodating, very friendly, and knowledgeable. The size of the rooms was good for a single person. It's enough to make you feel at home. The dining area was nice. It was restaurant-style."

"Upon first walking through the doors and meeting Donna, I instantly realized that Delaney was the best decision for my mother. After searching for a few months, no other options compared to what Delaney had to offer. The apartments are beautiful and quite spacious. My mom relocated from Florida back to NJ after our dad passed. The staff and residents couldn't have been more welcoming, making her feel like family right from the start. The attentive staff at Delaney has truly exceeded expectations, providing excellent care and assistance—from organizing fun activities and social events to their support with doctors' appointments. She has been living there for five months and calls it home! I couldn't be happier for my mother."

"I like that Brookdale Florham Park was clean and that it had activities. We like it. We also liked that it was close to my mother-in-law's house. They have a microwave and a refrigerator in the units. The person who took me around was very nice. She was very good. They also had a courtyard outside."

"All 3 shifts of staff are very caring, attentive to the residents needs and carry out their responsibilities in a professional manner. The administration is mindful and respond quickly to any calls or questions family members may inquire on. I must include accolades to the Brielle's wellness division. My family member was well taken care of."

"I am very satisfied with the accommodations provided. The rooms are clean and provide a warm feeling. The staff is very pleasant. My communication and interaction with Mr. Lee has been very comforting. My questions and and any concerns are addressed promptly by Mr. Lee. I get a call from him weekly to give me updates regarding my loved one. The food is very good according to my loved one. The staff is always greet me with smiles. The staff keeps the residents engaged. There is music and games. "

"I went to The Veranda Assisted Living. When they showed me the rooms and how they renovated certain things, it looked good. At first, I saw people like they were under the influence of alcohol. According to the state law, they cannot stop them from going out of the building, but if they are drinking in the building, then they're going to get penalized. When I was going in, I saw some people drinking, but they were standing outside. When I spoke to the manager, she said they could go out and they could drink, but they cannot use it in the building. The building was clean. They're doing a lot of renovations. They showed me the place where they're eating. It was nice and neat. They said they are doing renovation, floor by floor, coming down, so the whole building is going to be renovated eventually, and it looks good. The manager was helpful. The dining area was nice and clean. They said they have activities for them. They have special therapy, too."

"Brighton Gardens of West Orange was fabulous. However, the rates were kind of bad if you needed help. The only thing I had a problem with was the extra $4,000 a month if Mom needed assistance with taking a shower. I liked everything else about it. I loved the whole thing. I toured the memory care. The lady took me through and showed me everything. The other thing I had a problem with was they have two cats. The restaurant was gorgeous. The common areas, too. They would go outside and the grounds were beautiful. They have a place where they could do the gardening right there. The whole thing was just beautiful. I thought it was gorgeous. It was near a hospital so that's a very good location and it's not in a busy street."

"My brother & sister-in-law moved to Green Hill about 9 months ago. Both of them are treated very well. The staff , the nurses, care givers & management cannot do enough to make them feel loved. I recommend Green Hill highly."
