Despite being known as the “Crossroads of the East,” New Jersey has a lot to offer seniors looking for a place to settle down.
The median monthly cost of a care home in New Jersey is about $3,000. However, the cost of living in a care home depends largely on location. Since the homes are private residences, costs are tied to real estate value and therefore may vary greatly.
Residential Care Home
When our parents needed to move from their home of 60 years, we needed an Assisted Living setting for them. We also wanted a facility that offered rehab, memory care and skilled nursing in case one or both needed more care in the future. With these criteria, Lutheran Crossings seemed to be the logical choice. They offer several apartment sizes, including one of the largest one-bedroom apartments we saw in this area. The dining rooms are closer to the apartments than many other facilities, and there are many common areas for all the residents and visitors to enjoy (inside and out). The buildings and grounds are well-built, well-maintained and secure in a beautiful neighborhood. We have found the staff to be caring and attentive, and the food to be tasty, ample and nutritious. There are also many activities and social opportunities available. After living at LC for almost one year, my parents are very happy with their choice.
Read moreMy Mom was there for nearly 9 years before she recently passed away there. Before going there, I checked with friends who work at county Board of Social Services, re; any feedback as well as my podiatrist who travels to many facilities within the county giving care to residents. Both recommended Riverview for level of care , little staff turnover. I have had experiences with some of the more "modern" facilities with fancy decor, movie theaters, happy hours, etc. when my Mom needed rehab care. I had horrible experiences- one nearly killed my Mother, others I had bad experience with condition I found my Mother in, etc. She started out in assisted living, then later went to nursing care there. I have not one complaint. I was so happy with the activities for residents in both programs. Assisted living has about 3-4 trips per week - a store like Target or Walmart, a restaurant like Prospectors or Red Lobster, activity such as Smithville, New Hope , Trenton Thunder, ride to see holiday lights, etc. In addition there are visits from a local school ( Adopt a Grandparent) , entertainers, movies, bingo etc. Even on the Nursing unit, I visited chapel with my Mom on Sundays, saw entertainment programs, visited music therapy, etc. The biggest plus for me was the fact that I saw basically the same staff members through my years there - seems to be very little turnover. I felt staff really knew and cared for my Mom, showed her such love and care, went out of their way to talk with her, get to know her. I am extremely grateful to Riverview for the loving care they gave my Mother.
Read morePenn House has a number of positive aspects. The location is ideal and is in a quiet neighborhood in town, the facility is small which allows for a much different experience, and there are beautiful gardens and walking paths for the residents to enjoy which is unusual being in an urban environment. The staff are so personable, with a nice and warm feeling, which makes me feel confident about my mom living there. Another unique feature is that it is a historic building, and at 92, my mom really enjoys that feeling. The building is decorated like a museum which is very pleasing to her and to me. Overall, the food is good and the dining area is warm and inviting like a restaurant.
