Arden Courts A ProMedica Memory Care Community in Wayne
5.0

Although the expenence of needing to make this transition was not ideal, my experience w/ Arden easier than anticipated. Every single person I Interacted w/ was pleasent and I truly feel my great aunt is getting the best care possible. EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS.

Arbor Terrace Mountainside
5.0

The only helpful thing would be using Touchpoint to create the shopping list when supplies run out. I often get multiple calls a day when they run out of soap supplies. Really minor because of such great care and medical coordination. Very happy with the transparency and visibility, the family app with activity participation levels and photos is great as well.

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.
