The Chelsea at Fanwood
4.4

This is the best place and we think it is amazing. We have been very happy with our experience here. I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones and already have. My loved one loves the food and it is the best. They have healthy meals with large portions. Bingo, rosary, social hour, exercises, and more are some of the activities for the residents to choose from. They even have a shuttle bus to take residents to shopping centers. The staff are very courtesy, knowledgeable and professional to work with.

Fox Trail Memory Care Living at Princeton
5.0

My sister entered FTMC in [date removed] -just as COVID was taking over the world. It was a painful and agonizing decision, but Fox Trail was incredibly helpful and encouraging from the beginning. The transition went so well, it felt like a miracle. My sister made a phenomenal adjustment and so did I. I have not regretted my decision for a second.
