Mercerville Center Mercerville, NJ

My father-in-law had medical problems and had been in Mercerville Center several times. He was there when he passed away, and they really took good care of them. It's a nice environment. They have a dining room for the people. They have little things going on, like bingo, they play songs for them, they have parties, and they have communion and masses, which is important for my mom. It just seemed like the people care about the residents that are there. The staff is really good. If you have any problems, you go to them, and they take care of it. 9 out of 10 times if I noticed something and I went to them, they apologized. And within 24 to 30 hours it was taken care of. It's an older place, but the rooms are adequate for the people. There's lots of light in there, and there's always somebody checking on them. My mother was doing therapy, but she has plateaued now. So they basically commit, like every day they would get her up more around a little bit. But she's no longer in therapy. They have a day room they can go in and do puzzles or anything. In the mornings, they bring people up to the dining area and set it up, and they do exercises with them. Whenever somebody has a birthday, they have a big thing in the dining room for it to have cake and everything for the people. There's a real concern for the resident's well-being.
