Recent reviews of Memory Care in Montclair, NJ
Sunrise of Cresskill
4.5

We fell in love with Sunrise as soon as we walked into the place. Every area is beautifully and warmly decorated. The staff is very pleasant and easy to talk to. The residents all say "hello" with a smile on their face. When you walk through the rooms and are always greeted with smiling seniors, it tells you that they like where they are - and we now do too. The rooms are large, open, airy, excellent closets/storage space, beautiful bathroom, our own washer/dryer. They serve a continental breakfast every morning, and we have a dinner that offers a menu with minimum of 7 choices and includes, salad bar, soup, entree, beverage and dessert. They offer a daily list of varied activities. It's great!

Lakeside Residential Care Home Inc. in Oak Ridge, NJ
4.0

Under new ownership, the changes are noticeable almost immediately. substantial upgrades and repairs made on the building in the last few months since new owners took control. New roof, bathrooms installed, painting and landscaping to name a few. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Nice setting on the lake and close to RT 23 and Rt 15. There is still more work to be done, but they are off to a great start IMO.

My father in law is doing okay here at this community, he is still adjusting, but they are caring for him well. We do feel comfortable with his move to this community, it is a nice place. [Removed] is amazing. She was great to work with, she was very helpful, and understanding. The front desk receptionist isn't very pleasant, but the rest of the staff is very kind, and helpful. His room is well maintained when we visit, but the guest restroom could be better maintained. They have been very accommodating, and this is a community I would recommend.
