The Residence at Voorhees

So far it's been a good experience. It's clean. The people are nice and very helpful. They seem to offer a lot of activities, although my loved one hasn't participated in them.

Speaking to our loved one, they are not happy with the food they say it is pretty terrible. however even with the covid restrictions they are still doing small activities as much as they can.

The staff is very friendly, supportive. The activities director is very energetic. They respond quickly to any questions or concerns I have about my loved one. They seem to really care about the residents.

The staff is great and it's a small place. This community has worked well for my dad. I would recommend this community to others

We chose Cedar Ridge because when my mom toured the facility she enjoyed the looks and it just seemed to hit home. The room sizes here are very good, she had a 1 bedroom with a balcony, it was plenty for one person. The best part about the community would be the friendliness of the residents as well as the the staff members, they were all very easy to get along with. I would definitely recommend.

We really liked how they made our loved one feel right at home and made her feel like part of a family. The rooms are very spacious, and we felt the accommodations made it easy for our loved one to move around safely, and the food would be about a four out of five.

We loved the place. The staff and care was great. This made us feel that she was family to them. We are glad we choose this community. The room was easy access to the dining room, as well as in and out of the shower, and was offered help when needed.

The activities guy, [name removed], is outstanding and incredible. [name removed] gets the residents up, active, and involved with the activities. My loved one fought us tooth and nail to not go. Once she got there and got to know other residents she loved it there. She made friends, medical care, trips, and the staff became like family to her and the family. The Manager, [name removed], she gave us great care and information. She was everything. The chefs changed a few times while my loved one was there. My loved one complained at the beginning. However, after a medical treatment they made sure they had a hot plate of food waiting for her to make sure she was taken care of. The community was able to take over all the prescriptions, give my loved one the medicine, the doctor on site was able to assist her and care for her. When my loved one passed away in the community, the residents sent us cards of condolences. The staff was able to give the comfort that our loved one needed and to the family. We were able to work with hospice in this community, and hospice knew who the doctor was for the community.

My loved one has been there for almost a year. I spent three months looking for several other communities, before deciding on Atria Voorhees . I feel all my dreams came true when I found Atria Voorhees. My loved one is extremely happy here. The Executive Director runs a great place. The community was three weeks ahead of the regulations by the state of New Jersey and this has helped to maintain a COVID Free community. They have done a terrific job and done extraordinary work. The staff is great. This is a terrific place. My loved one enjoys the food, variety of selections. I was used to take my loved one out to lunch for five days a week. This has allowed my loved one to have a diverse taste. My sister was able to quickly find friends at the community. The community tries to keep the residents as active as possible during the pandemic. My loved one is in a one bedroom with a bathroom, storage for clothing and a living room. The apartment is near 300 square feet. My loved one quickly adjusted to the much smaller space than her house. There is lots of wildlife near the community. This has been a great experience and better than expected. The staff has done well, and I am a critic in the medical field. I don't say this very often, being a former physician.

We chose Atria Voohees because the physical appearance, it did not look like an institution, the grounds were well cared for, and it was also a smaller community that allows the more personal interaction between staff and residents. The rooms are very good sized. Big living room, kitchenette, nice size bathroom, and a separate room for her bedroom. We have eaten here before COVID , the food was very good. They have a lot of variety and they still maintain a selection during COVID. They have not had any cases of COVID for residents and they have done a good job at keeping them occupied. They have a daily conference call with the residents and also have hallway bowling and bingo. Atria Voorhees truly is the complete package, my cousin is very happy here. I would absolutely recommend.

We chose this community because it was close to where he used to live, the place looked nice when you walked in, it was clean and decorated nicely. Most importantly it did not feel like a hospital. The staff was very friendly staff. The room sizes were great, the bathroom was a nice size for wheelchair accessibility. The food was delicious when we ate there for Christmas dinner. Some of the activities included were, memory games, light physical activity, musicians who came in to play, movie rooms, arts and crafts. They also took the residents out into the community for movies or lunches. Our favorite part about this community was the cleanliness and the friendliness of the staff. Anytime I needed to talk someone, they were always available.

Everything is positive, and perfect. They take care of the residents. They are keeping up with some activities even during COVID. They have had Singing in Doorways, happy hour where they walked around with wine, a piano player was brought in and they sectioned the community room, there was even a dinosaur that has walked around.

[Name removed] (facilities manager) was VERY helpful. The interior was comfortable, clean, no smells, active, rooms were nice, prices average.

Approved on very short notice. [Removed] gave us a great tour; sending us home with a dinner sampling. Like the residence and my father in law gave high marks to the food. Still under consideration.

My dad has had a rough start here but the staff has been very helpful with his transition here, they are attentive and friendly. Dad's room is nice and we have brought in some of his own furniture so that it is starting to feel more like home for him. They offer a lot of amenities here for the residents to take part in and I would recommend setting up a tour to see this community.

I liked this Brookdale the best in terms of the people, the wonderfully decorated resident doorways/corners, and the overall "warmth" of the place. I'm sensitive to the room sizes and want my mom in the largest possible living room/bedroom apartment I can find. This facility has memory care (the one at Evesham does not). Rooms are smaller than at Evesham Brookdale. I'm very torn!

I have no complaints about the care my mother has been receiving so far at this community. The staff have been attentive to her needs and have made an accommodations they can to make sure she feels welcome as well as comfortable. Mom has had no issues with the food and seems to be participating in a few of the activities they have to offer throughout the week.

The staff are helpful and explained the services that are available up front. They encourage mom to participate in some of the daily activities. They do offer trips out to the store. She is very happy with the food. The community is clean and well maintained. I would recommend this community.

The community is in a good area. The staff was great at answering all questions. I feel that they went into depth when asking about the financial part of it all. They worked with us. The community was clean and neat when I arrived.

I am writing this on behalf of my 85 year old mother. We were received very graciously. My mother is very happy with the majority of the staff. She absolutely loves the quality, quantity and variety of the meals. Our biggest issue is Brookdale's new resident "button" system. It has failed a total of four times since she has moved in, which was the earlier half of April. We have been told the staff has between three to twenty minutes to respond once activated. Being stranded at the dining table after a meal is one thing, being stranded on the bathroom floor at night is another. So many of the staff from top down are clearly in the right field. They are very sincere, caring and knowledgeable. Unfortunately as with anything in our world today there are some bad apples. Her secured room has been broken into while she has been in the dining room. As happy and content as she is and has been, these two incidences have her and the rest of her family with a feeling of uneasiness.
