I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident How do I start, if you prefer your loved one to sit in there wheelchair all day if a fall risk and not be able to sleep for a nap in there bed this place is for you. My Dad was here for rehab. Rehab was great but not his wing care not so much. Someone from our family went there daily; we would find his meds in the bed that he spit out. He fell; they claimed they called me and the doctor, asked to verify the phone number they called which was correct but no voice mail or mi... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident I found this place to be an administrative nightmare. Phone messages requesting a call back were ignored. I could not get them to fill out a simple insurance form despite multiple requests from myself and the insurance company. In desperation I called staff members in different departments looking for help. They did try to help but it eventually took a call to Corporate Headquarters to get final resolution. I have never written a negative review before but this place nearl... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident This place is HORRIBLE, very dirty, staff and nurses are very rude and uncareing. To say this place is a medical facility is a untrue statement. They left my mother in the bathroom for hours at a time. My sister had to tend to my mothers needs ,as far as cleaning her up after accidents. Im appalled that this place is in bussiness and employs staff that does not have a clue about health care needs. My girlfriend is a nurse so i have some idea of what proper medical care is,... read more

I am/was a resident of this facility For physical and occupational therapy, this is an excellent facility. Some nursing staff are not as diligent as they should be, especially when it comes to medication; you have to know what pills you're supposed to be getting when; one time i was given another patient's meds!. Doctor assigned to me was not someone i would ever go to again; getting in touch with her, even getting to see her, was often challenging which impeded my recovery. Kidney doctor however was great and very much on t... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident HORRIBLE PLACE !!!!! If patient cannot get up and help themselves, then they are doomed. Takes forever for nurse or aid to come if ever ! Daily hygiene is a joke, teeth brushing....forget it. Floors are not cleaned daily. Aid complained about having to move patient in lounge chair because the chair is heavy to push.....duh !!! It's what you are getting paid for ! When going to desk for info or help, you are ignored...no one lifts their head to acknowledge you, I know they are busy but af... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident My father in law was directed from Rahway hospital, he was basically pushed to this place, the social worker gave my wife several choices and then said he has to go to a place were the doctor is associated? Upon transfer the problems began. First, they lost his dentures, communication with staff was non existent, no one could give any information, even doctors said I don't know. The place is filthy,food on floors and ceiling for the 2 days he was there, my wife transferred him to another... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident My mother was pushed into this facility on Christmas Eve by the hospital after surgery on Dec 23rd for a diabetic ulcer on the side of the foot resulting in the loss of a toe. She was moved to the facility to receive intravenous IV antibiotics for 10 days. at age 78, mom is an independent woman who still works. Where do I begin? There are too many patients and not enough staff. Some nurses and aides are great but some lazy and do not offer assistance. The physical therapy department does... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident This place was horrible. My mom had a stroke and the physical therapy dept horrible! Every time you asked a question the answer would be we have I look into it. Mom is home now, we have a physical therapist coming to the house. He said he wouldn't even send a dog to this place! Stay away.
