42 Independent Living near Facilities West Milford, NJ. Page 2

We went with The Senior Residence at Se. Peter Apostle because they offered a comparable level of service for almost $2000 less a month. The facility is smaller with only 20 rooms, it is a former convent so you have to be ok with a small room versus some other places that had large rooms. They have communal bathrooms and showers but there are 4 per hall so she has never had to wait. In terms of services, the other places we saw were not offering much more than this one and were more expensive. Here they offer 3 meals a day and access to coffee and tea throughout the day in a common room. It offers towel and bedsheet cleaning. But they do not have as many activities provided which is ok. The atmosphere is homey and she is comfortable here. I would absolutely recommend that others check it out. Staff are amazing and it doesn't matter who it is, they are super helpful to the residents. You can reach the director at anytime, she even gave me her phone number if we needed anything.

I received helpful and friendly service from both the staff and administration. The facility is clean and secure, the grounds are well kept, there are numerous activities and services available on premises, and free bus service to local businesses. For independent living, it's a very good fit for my 90 year old parents. Age-in-place assisted living options are available if and when necessary, as well.

My friends Mom lives in this community. She moved in about 7 months ago after losing her husband. She is thriving in this environment. She lives independently, has transportation if she needs it and lives amongst some really nice people. She has a better social life than I do. I had dinner with her and the food was delicious. The place was spotless. I used a public restroom while I was there and it was immaculate. Her apartment has housekeeping and it had been done that day and it was spotless. The employees I interacted with really cared for the residents I saw during my stay. I am not old enough to live here yet, but will consider this. There are new owners managing this property and the renovations are beautiful. Most importantly my friends Mom is really enjoying living here.
