CareOne East Brunswick Assisted Living& Memory Care

Vera

We have been using CareOne at East Brunswick for respite care for my sister, and they have been great. They have helped us out a lot. They are very caring and very knowledgeable. The facility is brand new, and it's fantastic. They have lots of resources available for the families of the residents there, even resources that are outside of their facility. They helped us out with a team of doctors. The rooms are beautiful. There is a refrigerator in her room and a big bathroom that's created for someone who's disabled. It's easy to get around. It is big. It has a big closet, a dresser, and a bed. They have outdoor spaces. They also have a large indoor balcony. The outdoor patio is really big. The food was fine, but they need to be more conscious of the needs of particular residents. They are also understaffed, which I think is the case for all the facilities.

My mother has moved into CareOne at East Brunswick Assisted Living. She's in memory care stage one. They have four different stages and that's what's great about that community because most of the memory care facilities, they're all together. When your mother doesn't need the memory care yet and she's in the very, very early stages, it's great, because they actually do more than the assisted living people, and they're more active. The facility is absolutely beautiful, very clean, and brand new. They have so many activities to do. They're always busy, and they're never in their rooms. The food is really good. It's all buffet style, so they can pick and choose, and they're open 24 hours for snacks and all that kind of stuff. They're very well organized. They're there at the drop of the hat. If you call them or if there are any problems, they solve them quickly. I can't say enough about them. They really got it together there. My mother loves the food. They have an ice cream parlor where they all go down and have ice cream with all the amenities that you need. It's always changing, and if you didn't like anything, you can always request something. They'll see if they can accommodate you. I wouldn't call it The Ritz, but it's decent food.

My aunt was at CareOne at East Brunswick. They were good, and she was very happy there. It was limited on our end because we weren't allowed to go in. We're only allowed to go in a couple of times in the general area, but we weren't allowed to go to the rooms or anything like that. She was happy there, and she didn't wanna leave. There was like a cafeteria-type room, which she loved, and she loved the food there as well. The place was very good. They kept it very clean and very up-to-date. I believe they had Bingo and stuff like that. I don't know how much of it she actually did, but she said there were activities.
