Nursing Home Communities in West Caldwell, NJ

"South Mountain Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center has been great. They've been amazing. The staff has been very helpful in this journey, and they've made her stay very pleasant. She does like the food there. The facility is very nice and comfortable. They are very well taken care of, I would say. She's not in a position where she can use those facilities at this time. The staff has been great from the admissions to the social worker, to the physician assistant, the physician, and the nurses, they're all great."

"I toured the Hopkins Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare. It was good and very respectful, nice, kind, and clean. The dining area was good. They keep the residents occupied with events every week and try to make it so that everyone is comfortable, which is very helpful. The staff member who gave the tour was very kind."

"I’m very happy with the rehab and food in this establishment. They treated me amazing, I’m very impressed with the neatness and cleanliness of this establishment. Really remarkable. Thank you for taking such good care of me."

"It is truly a difficult decision to have a parent reside in a Nursing Home instead of at home but sometimes there is no choice for the family based on their needs. I feel so incredibly grateful that my own mother was a resident at Dry Harbor Nursing Home since the summer of 2022 until her recent passing in March of 2024. In her final years my mother was on the tenth floor of Dry Harbor and was in absolute excellent care. The staff lead by Managing Nurse Tamara was hard working, dedicated, kind and patient with my mother putting my siblings and me at ease knowing our mom was in good hands. On my daily visits I asked questions and showed concern for my mother's health and spirits. Tamara, the managing nurse kept me posted on any new developments in my mother's health or any change in her overall well being. If she was unable to call herself for any reason she directed and left notes for other staff members to notify me of anything that seemed concerning. This gave me such peace of mind. Janet, Lucy, and Pauline just to name a few of the staff, I wish I could mention everyone, were absolute angels in my mother's life during her time in Dry Harbor. Zyrra the social worker was so sweetly kind and patient whenever I have needed her assistance and when reaching out to me in need of information or to provide me with information. Eva the dietician was always willing to try different foods that may help my mother continue eating as her tastes and appetite changed and diminished as her health declined. I went to the home right after a long day of work and considering my fatigue I always felt relieved to be greeted by the smiling faces of the reception staff. Their kindness was truly welcomed and appreciated. The employees of the business offices were also kind, patient and so helpful when it came to the task of filling out paperwork and securing insurance and such which we all know can be tedious but necessary. So overall my family and I were pleased by the care our mother received at Dry Harbor but personally I would like to address a special thank you to the tenth floor staff as they truly helped to give me peace of mind with the care my mother received in the final days of her life. To Lucy trying to help convince my mother ever so kindly to eat to keep her strength up and making sure she was comfortable and calm. To Janet for answering all of my questions as soon as I stepped off the elevator and always with patience, respect and empathy for my concern for my mother. Also for not hesitating to call the managing nurse whenever either she or I believed my mother needed specific attention or help. To Pauline the miraculous angel who called me the morning my mother passed because using the judgement of her experience and the mutual opinion of Tamara predicted that my mom may not survive that day. Their intuition and professional assessment was correct. I will always be grateful for that phone call in the morning that made it possible for my siblings and I to be with my mother at the moment of her death. That was a precious gift. My mother passed away and even after the staff at Dry Harbor continue to be kind and patient and helpful. Thanks to all the staff members that made the experience a little easier during a difficult time for our family."

"Regency Heritage gave my husband tender loving care while he was in this beautiful facility. I am indebted to the staff more specifically to the dedication and kind regards of folk like Evette and others on the first floor. When my husband moved to the second floor we were met with another group of dedicated professionals. The expert professionals in the rehabilitation unit were phenomenal. They brought my husband back from immobility to satisfactory mobility in a shorter period of time than the family even expected. Forever grateful."

"I toured the Dumont Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare. On every floor we were taken to, I didn't see any discrepancies. We were taken to the memory care division. It looked like it was a clean place, so I have no complaints. The staff member who gave the tour was not knowledgeable, but the person they claimed we were supposed to see had something else to do, so they put another person on to take us around. He was OK. If we had another person who normally does it, we'd get more information on him, but it wasn't bad. It was OK. It looked like a clean area. I didn't see anything wrong with the rooms they showed us and that we passed through, but I peeked, and they looked well-kept. They showed us different rooms. They showed us one-on-one, and then we saw two-on-two. I mean two people in a room, and we saw one person in the room. So it was OK."

"The staff is amazing they treat you with care. My stay during rehab was so good. Thank you for your care and your help."

"My family cannot say enough positive things about the team at Crane’s Mill. They were very responsive to all of my parent’s needs which made for a welcoming and easy transition. Now that they are living there my parents are more active and social and are enjoying all the facilities. The staff and residents are all so friendly and caring. Moving to Crane’s Mill was the best decision my parents could have made."

"I was at West Caldwell Care Center for rehab and the people were nice. They treated me very well and took care of me. They came in and cleaned my room including the bathroom. They would change my bedclothes and my linen as well. I liked the food. They gave me three hot meals a day. They'd give me a list and then I could choose from the list what I wanted to eat. It wasn't just getting what was for the day. I had three or four different choices and I put on weight there. It's beautiful outside because they had me walk around the outside of the building to see how I did my breathing and oxygen levels and things like that. Even during my physical therapy, every time I would do something, they would check my oxygen level."

"Canterbury in Cedar Grove, New Jersey is a phenomenal nursing home. My grandfather was there for 2 weeks to 1 month. The place is very clean and the lobby is very trendy. The nurses take amazing care of their patients and are very friendly. The nurses were professional but grew to have relationships with their patients. They kept the patients and the facilities safe and clean. One of the perks to the nursing home was the location, it is off a main road and very private. The best part was the events and activates they offered to their patients. They had weekend events that included a Circus Day with petting zoo. The facility really took the time to protect, take care of their patients, and to make sure they had a good time. The physical therapy aspect was very good as well; nurses pushed their patients but not too far. "

"My mother-in-law was at Arbor Glen for rehabilitation for almost a month after a fall, the care that she received from the nurses, aides, and the therapist was extraordinary. the staff was helpful and caring."

"St Vincent's Nursing Home was wonderful. The rooms were big and well kept. I was only there twice. They had a lot of stuff for my relative to do. The staff was very accommodating. As far as care for her and communicating with us, they were wonderful. "

"Waterview Center is nice. It's not a bad place to be. The only thing I don't like is on account of this virus they're not letting anybody out of their room. You can't go outside. I just feel confined being in my room. That's the only thing that I don't like, but I know why they're doing it, and I don't have a problem with it. The nurses and aides are all very wonderful. I don't really have a problem with that. It's just that sitting in this room day after day sometimes gets to me. I'm in a single room by myself, which I'm glad of, and it's enough for me for now. I can't complain about that, either. It's like a studio; there is no stove and no refrigerator. I've been depending on them for food. I have a TV, a dresser, a chest of drawers, a bathroom, and a closet. When I came here, they stopped the activities. The only thing that I was told was they had somebody come who played the piano, and if anybody wanted to sing along, they could. I know there were more activities besides that, but they had already stopped before I came here. They have a beauty salon, but they're not cutting anybody's hair now. They have a patio outside where you can sit, but they're not really bringing anybody outside to sit on the patio as far as I know. The staff is wonderful. I can't complain about the staff, either. It's a very nice facility. The building is very pretty on the outside. I'm kind of fussy with the food. There are some foods that I don't like how they make it, but that's not their fault, it's just me. I haven't done any activities aside from physical therapy."

"They make you feel like your family. Y ou dont mind leaving there. The place is clean the food is great. When you call they talk to you with compassion and caring. Everyone is in such a great mood. There is always something to do so you are not bored. Even the rooms are like home. I would surely recommend them to others. The best it is and truly a COMPLETE Care."
