My mom raves about how good the food is. My favorite thing about CareOne compared to her last place is that they have frequent trips - to Walmart, Target, the library, Goodwill, lunch at local restaurants, etc. I think it adds a sense of normalcy to her life. Shoutout to [name removed] on the activities staff - everything she does with the residents she puts 110% into.

Overall, individually everyone has been fantastic. I do think communication among the staff has room for improvement. I would recommend Careone at Somerset Valley. Overall we have been very happy.

They took care to clean, dress, and bring my mother to the general area each day. She always looked well groomed. We chose this community because it was more reasonably priced than where she was previously.

Based on the experience we have had so far, we think we would recommend the CareOne at Somerset Valley to other families. Most of the staff members working there are helpful and overall it is a safe place for our loved one

During our search for Assisted Living for my mom, we toured CareOne at Somerset Valley. This facility seemed very institutional. We also felt that the staff was not friendly at this facility.

My Uncle has been a resident since [date removed]. He says “I have nothing to complain about! Would I rather be in Paris of course I would but I have absolute nothing to complain about.” He entered after a year of extreme alcoholism and self-neglect leaving him malnourished and at death’s door. Since living at CareOne he has gained 50 lbs (he loves the food) and hasn’t missed a single day of meds which he was unable to manage on his own. He lived isolated alone in a garden apartment. He now has a beautiful studio apartment with a view out front of all the comings and goings. There are employees in and out of his room throughout the day and eats all his meals in their dining room. As for my experience the staff is very responsive to all my concerns and his nurse keeps me informed about any challenges they may face with him. There are safeguards in place to keep him sober and they call me when any red flags occur. He is in a safe place and that is what matters most to me!

I think they do the best they can under the circumstances for example with short staffing and the pandemic. Some of the activities available include folding clothes, arts and crafts, and more for the residents to participate in if they choose to.

I would say that the social worker was not as good there as at another facility we had been at previously. We insisted on getting information, but if you don't ask for information you don't get it. We had weekly conferences with everyone, and I wanted my husband to have intensive PT and begin to walk. When I asked if that was possible, they said it was not realistic. And I feel like they should have told me that before I asked the question. I thought they should have been more transparent. But I thought the facility itself was lovely though.

The value for cost was pretty good while our loved one there, we had a sense that she enjoyed her stay. CareOne did right by our family, the administrator was amazing, we loved her. She was very good with our family and other families there. She was always on top of everything, and we really liked how they gave out their personal cell phone numbers in case we ever had an emergency or any concerns. The nurses assistant [name removed] was amazing, she not only showed loved to our mother but to our family. We really appreciated her.

I will say we had a difficult time making a decision to pick a rehab facility during covid times. Reading some of the reviews didn’t help but I do take into consideration that people tend to only review negative experiences but I would like to tell you about our experience. From the start our first chats with [name removed] was so detailed and assuring we decided to go with CareOne. We were assigned another social worker also named [name removed]. She was so caring and kind. Made sure we were able to contact her at anytime. My dad went in for a leg infection after staying at the hospital for 21 days. He needed to regain his strength. The director of physical therapy, [name removed] was beyond amazing! I can tell her goal was to get my dad better fast and safely. She asked key questions to how his living situation was to make sure he would go home and be able to function well in his own home. During my father’s hospital stay he ended up having to be on dialysis. They arranged transport to and from the facility and all went seamlessly. Art the director of food was amazing making sure his dietary needs were met. My dad actually said he liked a lot of the foods. The nurses were very diligent with his care. His wound was well taken care of and they did a great job with standard hygiene procedures. He said he always felt clean and clothes were changed regularly. Because of covid he was quarantined for his first 14 days. The facility visitation team, [names removed] were absolutely amazing! They would schedule window visits for us and made sure we could see my dad daily. Knowing we could only see him though a window was tough but being able to see him when we wanted was amazing. Covid times make for difficult situation but we couldn’t have felt more comfortable that he was in great hands. Communication from all his care team was top notch. We were very happy with our experience and my dad he said he was going to miss the staff. I really felt so much understanding from the team, [names removed] really took an interest in our family and treated my dad like family! A very scary and hard decision ended up being really positive and amazing. We won’t forget the people that helped get him better and we are grateful for them. I hope this helps someone make their decision.

Staff is great and trying their best, the problems are in doctors who are visiting this facility, unproductive and unresponsive.... administration should be more careful in selection of the doctors. But the stuff, nurses and CNA are really great.

So far everything is working out pretty well since my fathers move to this community. He is doing okay, and I'am comfortable with his move to this facility. They have a nice staff, and they are taking good care of him. This is a good, safe community, and I would recommend it.

CareOne at Somerset is a clean and inviting community. It is very homey and comfortable for my mom. The staff, for the most part, are very friendly, there are a few who are not. I do wish they could give a more detailed update of the residents when we call to see how they are doing, some of our family members do not live close by. We understand they are busy so maybe it's asking too much. The food is good, she cannot eat on her own, the staff is very willing to help feed her and she is eating well. We are extremely happy with all of the activities and events they provide for her, it definitely keeps her engaged. She loves singing and social hour before dinner. They have ice cream socials and she loves to participate. The great thing I love about this place is even though they are a locked facility all the residents help each other, I see residents helping each other, either to push other residents in wheel chairs to get them to and from places. They seem like a warm and caring family. I would highly recommend CareOne at Somerset Valley.

It was a horrible experience for my father at this place, While he was in rehab they came and assessed him. They told us they would be able to take care of him. Within 3 hours of moving in, he fell and ended up in the Emergency Room. They did not have an alarm for him in his room, he fell several other times. I even had to pay extra to have a caregiver with him 12 hours a day. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

If only I could give CareOne a zero star! My father has advanced Alzheimer's disease. Following a hospital stay, the director of nursing from CareOne went to visit my father at the rehab to assess if CareOne would be able to care for his needs. The director was given full access to the nursing notes at the rehab and advised me that they would indeed be able to care for him. Once moved in, dad had 3 falls in 5 days due to the lack of supervision and required me to have a 12 hr. companion while he was awake to assure he did not fall. The cost of a companion adds $1,500 weekly to the already high cost of care but I was willing to help with his transition. They were unable to properly manage his prescriptions in order to address his agitation and most days he was either agitated or drugged up and unresponsive until he was sent back to the hospital. I was notified that he would need Geri Med Mgmt. The hospital diagnosed him with delirium from overdosing of his meds. The hospital also felt CareOne was not capable of caring for my dad based on the prescription issue and the 3 falls in 5 days. I have since moved my father to a facility that specializes in Alzheimer's patients and in less than a week, he is thriving. He is more alert, eating well and carrying on conversations with visitors and residents. I would not recommend CareOne to anyone that has an Alzheimer's or dementia family member, they are inadequately staffed and just don't care about the residents.

My loved one did a short respite stay at this community. The individual staff members he worked with were nice and good at their job. It did seem like there was not a lot of coordination between the staff. They knew he was coming and they did not have a room for him in the assisted living section so he had to stay in the memory care unit. He was ok with the food. The community is clean and well maintained. This community had an institutional feel to it.

The staff and everything has been wonderful here. Dad likes it and is happy. Dad says that the food is alright, but they need to spice it up a bit. There is no variety. Other than that they are very clean and neat.

The community is understaffed and the staff do not seem as though they are trained properly. It took about a month to get a room cleaned. The building is beautiful and they have spacious rooms with large windows. The food is eatable, however if you do not order from the menu it takes longer to get your food. I would not recommend this community.
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the New Jersey regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about New Jersey regulations for Assisted Living.
