Beautiful faucity, a bit out of our price range. But it's warm and inviting, and comfortable, staff was friendly. Monday was very kind, and helpful. Would recommend.

We toured here, it was very cute. I didn't like how small the rooms were. I didn't like the idea of a shared bathroom, and one of them smelled kind of musty like mold or mildew, but not like urine. They are getting ready to renovate it so I may check it out again, to see how it looks after.

Great place for later stage dementia.

Not impressed. When we arrived residents on couch watching tv...but most of them sleeping. His mom needs more of apartment like set up rather than house set up. The facility was clean and residents looked well cared for and was secure. Just not good fit for his mom. His mom was very upset with us for looking at the facility. She did not like it all.

My friend is here, I know he's been doing fine over there it's just that he's been having some medical issues, his memory is getting really bad. His lady friend called me saying he had to go to the hospital but everything with Green Brook is fine, if there was anything bad his lady friend would have called. The place is fine, it's just that it's a memory care. This place is okay, it's nothing great, I wouldn't want to be there even if I had Alzheimer's, maybe its just because he has it and it's depressing. It could do with a little updating, the outside is nice but inside it's dark and not comfortable.

All Alzheimers. Aging in place philosophy. Fixed price that does not rise with increased need for care. Staffing is 1:4 days, 1:5 nights. Shared bathrooms may be an issue.

They could use some work on communication and better attention to patient care. They do have new director who came in about four weeks ago. She has some type of nursing background and seems to be doing a better job and trying. Our family is getting more phone calls and information, and we hope that things will continue to improve with the new director.

I toured this community and I was disappointed. The rooms were small and not very nice, very small community, not a lot of activity going on. Not what we were looking for.

No activities residents just sit and brains get no exercise

The facility is very small with limited parking. The staff were nice but I felt my mother would need a more active community.

I was not impressed with this place at all during my tour of the facility. It was very loud and noisy throughout the building and everything just felt very disorganized. I was also not a fan of the layout they had, the rooms where very tiny and unmanageable in my opinion. It just would not have been the right fit for my mother.

I am not getting the services promised to me in the beginning at Memory Care Living at Woodcliff Lake. [removed] The food quality is poor and very non nutritional. There are only two aids that are there for 14 staff. I was told I need to buy a wheelchair for mom but every time I am there she isn't in it. Sometimes she is in someone else's and sometimes they are in hers. Her clothes are always missing even though we labeled them. There have been several medication mix ups. I am not happy at all with the service I am getting and the amount of money I am paying. I am not satisfied with this facility at all.

You have to be very, very clear what is wrong with your loved one and what you’re expecting from their service. I don’t think they made much attention to my loved one. They were forewarned about concerns and they just didn’t have enough staff to respond properly. I wasn’t comfortable with them. Everyone I spoke to didn’t speak English properly.

Not very well maintained. Torn furniture.

I have to comment negative on all seven - On [date removed] I asked an aide to help me walk my husband from kitchen area to TV area and she gave me a loud, flat out no on [date removed] around midnight my husband fell, was taken to hospital and died 16 days later. He was there approximately 3 months and lost almost 30 lbs They only had two aides who sat at head of TV room and watched the occupants all day. I told them the night he fell that he would not be back The only interest was that I had to pay for the next month as to my contract They never called to inquire into his condition. He was covered in black and blues and when I asked, it was always his fault They kept telling me they were trained to care for him but (now) I do not believe it

We needed a place for my father with dementia. When we brought him in for an assessment, they didn't say anything about assisted living being an option. They just said they could take him. They didn't tell us they were closing in 60 days for construction, so we ended up having to move him shortly after moving in. They gave us the 30-day notice of that construction during the Holidays, the timing of which is unethical. They completely dropped the ball on his PT. He has diabetes, and they were supposed to check his blood sugar in the mornings. They barely ever did that, if ever. There was a Covid outbreak, and they never communicated that to the family, nor did they give status updates of any sort. I never saw one single email from the management team during the couple of months he was there. I felt that the aides were really friendly, but the admin/management staff were not so great. The director left, and they never communicated to the families about that transition. They got my dad's laundry mixed up. His watch disappeared. When we took his clothes home, we had to throw them away because the water coming out of the washing machine was filthy. I have nothing positive to say about my experience with Fox Trail. In my opinion, the place should be shut down.

This home was very good until the nurse resident manager left for health issues. History of understaffing causes stress to aides. They struggle to provide activities. Many good aides don’t last. Requires a lot of follow-up to make sure your loved one is taken care of. Lack of communication to family members about their loved ones even when they are not doing well. Terrible record keeping of your loved one and they don’t pass on information to aides during shift changes. It’s dirty. Feces were on a wall next to a toilet on the wall. Bedrooms are not swept. Patients wear 2/3 diaper underwear. They get soaked. During sundowning, they have tied patients to their chairs with sheets. I bought a couch for them and they allowed patients to sleep on it during the night who urinated in it. After my mom died, I reported them to the NJ Ombudsman and they were cited for violations.

My husband lost over 40 lbs in [time frame removed]. Problem was behavioral I was told they were educated in the problem but they were not According to them everything that happened to him was his fault They said he fought their assistance but when I asked an aide to help me walk him from one room to another she yelled "no" I am not against your putting it on your website but I would prefer first name or initials Advise anyone signing on with any place to really read the contract

Think twice before placing a loved one in this facility. It’s nothing but a BIG LIE and a show. The residents are literally bored to death. It’s a revolving door of help who don’t appear to be qualified or held accountable for their job responsibilities. There is no supervision so they sit on their phones while the residents stare at nothing. Forget about healthy meals too. There is a menu that no one follows and it’s mostly processed foods that are prepared in a filthy kitchen. My mother looks like a bag lady. Her hair is matted to her head, she had dried food on her chin, no bra, food on her shirt, etc. There is no dignity or respect for the residents. Very sad! They need to be fined and shut down! Don’t do this to your loved ones.

Our family had an in person tour and it was a bad first impression. They messed up our appointment, the staff were not friendly at all, we did not really care for that and the place is much smaller.
