CareOne at Livingston Assisted Living

The team here showed me around and was very knowledgeable about the industry. When the time comes I will be choosing this facility.

I love this place and all its staff. They are very helpful and the administrator is the best!!!

My dad moved in and has done so well there. The move in process was great! My dad has made new friends with staff and residents alike. We are happy we chose Care One Assisted Living in Livingston.

Just found out my Aunt is there..albeit temporary after a pnuemonia & wound infection bout.But the news I received yesterday is that she now has a open wound on her rear..after 2 weeks.She is 94 years old with one son.She lived alone, refuses to move with her son, out of state...But she did not have a decubitis when she left home or hospital! !Im very upset & heading there today, first time visit. I am a nurse & I personally referred her primary home caretaker who her family &I swear by.I also checked on her while at home.She had a small wound on her forearm, from scratching, taking off her lambskin, but it was healing after tx & physician office& visiting nurse wound care.If she has a catheter which Im hearing , along with her long term IV AB, then they are probably not turning her,not cleaning her well, not getting her up or nourishing her skin...We will see!!

My mother moved into this community in May of this year. She has adjusted wonderfully the communication has been great. The administrator [Name removed] is always available which means so much to us!

My wife moved into this facility and it has been god sent. She has early onset dementia and I could not keep her at home. It eases my mind she is safe and well taken care of there at CareOne. The staff has been so kind and amazing with us and her.

My mother moved in in May, and it has been a pleasant, very attentive staff and the move in process was great with [name removed]. Would highly recommend, my mother has found a second family with CareOne!

My father moved in after being at the rehab, we love the community! The renovated room is perfect, my Dad is so happy and loves the staff and residents. He is a social butterfly again!

First may I say, the name should be CareNone. My brother was swayed to put our father into Harmony Village as the rep explained that our father would get better care. If waiting more than 30 minutes to get to the bathroom is efficient, no wonder we needed to supply him with more depends. The food looked and tasted awful. Their family nights were a good idea in theory but horrible. Their physical therapists would walk into the residents room for a session. If the patient would say 'no' the PT would walk out of the room and bill medicare for a session. The speech therapist was impossible to deal with. She believes that she is better than the speech therapists from Morristown Medical Center. The director does not appreciate the family visiting all the time and noticing things that needed improvement. The workers did not have my father ready when he was to be picked up for some occasions. The director told me he was short on staff, but it was all right to charge more than $9000 monthly. My brother and I took my father out about 2 months of living at CareNone. We were forced to give a 30 day notice. My father was much happier at the next facility. He was not in a dementia unit and ate delicious chopped food that he loved.

My father was here for around a month. It was one of the worst experience we have ever gone through. He did very well from a heart valve surgery, but once here he had a sore that festered into a stage 4, two fist size to the bone bed sore!! Do not trust this place to care for your loved ones. He never made it to his hip surgeries, because he ended up not surviving all the infections acquired due to this sore. Care One relinquished all responsibility. I remember a doctor yelling at the nurses for something and at the time I did not know what. We found out!!

Pay attention to the fine print in the contract. When you are in a bind and need to find immediate care for a loved one you tend to gloss over the fine print. My mom went out to the hospital for 4 days in early October and then on to sub-acute care for the next 13 days before passing. When I received the final accounting I found out to my displeasure that CareOne continues to bill for general care medical supervision at 100 % for 3 days and at 50 % for another week despite being in a hospital and then in sub-acute care. They continued to bill for room and board for the first 5 days of November, despite her death on October 23. I was told that this was in the contract, but I guess I should have raised a stink back in 2015. But we were moving her from MA to NJ and needed a place that could handle her needs. We DO appreciate the care she got from wonderful nurses and aides. This is not a complaint about her care, simply the callous business practices of this corporation.

Mom had a pretty good respite stay at this community. There were some issues when she first got there such as the television did not work, however they quickly resolved these issues. The food was ok and the community was clean. We would use this community again for a respite stay.

Very nice facility with nice amenities. The larger one bedroom would be nice, but I would prefer two adjoining studio apartments to give my parents more space. Good onsite medical care.

CareOne Assisted Living in Livingston NJ should be re-named to "Care for EVERYONE Assisted Living”! They are not just there for my 91 year old mom, but they are there for the entire family. I was overwhelmed by the professionalism and personal service each and every one provided to our family, but most of all to my mom. CareOne Livingston goes above and beyond providing our family members who reside in their Assisted Living facility the respect and dignity they deserve for living such wonderful, glorious, and fulfilling lives. Most people may think of Assisted Living as a “holding cell” while waiting to check out, but CareOne Livingston is anything but that, they are a shining light where our parents enjoy life.

My loved one has received great care at this community, she really enjoyed the meals and would often participate in many of the activities. The entire staff team was constantly making sure that my mother was comfortable and safe in her new living environment.

My first impression during my tour of the lobby was a little disappointing. The residents where all just sitting in the lobby and they looked like zombies. There was no involvement with the staff going on and they just looked sad and depressed. I would not want my mother living in this community.

From beginning to end, four months, aides,nurses,etc and from the beginning of his stay everyone was cooperative, helpful, caring etc.

Beautiful facility. Pricing better than what we have now, but not better enough to move her to a location a lot less convenient than Sunrise

Happy to have chosen careone for my mother!

My mother has been at Care one for over 2 years. I can only say that this community was the "right fit" for my mom and her needs!
