CareOne Management

I personally think the place is one of those that looks fancy on the outside but is a dump with the care, etc on the inside. Go somewhere else

Administration is very rude.. I tried to tell the administrator of a problem that arose during my fathers care and she said quote ‘’ not my fault ‘’ and walked away. WOW.

The facility smells, patients are ignored, the food is disgusting and the management is disorganized, bordering on incompetent. I would not ever put a loved one there ever again!

It was a horrible experience for my father at this place, While he was in rehab they came and assessed him. They told us they would be able to take care of him. Within 3 hours of moving in, he fell and ended up in the Emergency Room. They did not have an alarm for him in his room, he fell several other times. I even had to pay extra to have a caregiver with him 12 hours a day. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Respite Care - Never again Year 1 - Took mom there for 2 weeks - came home soiled and 20 pounds lighter - aides didn't feed her. Year 2 - Gave it a second chance - mom came home malnourished and crippled. They were supposed to walk her 15 minutes a day and feed her. They put her in a reclining wheel chair and left her there all day. CARE NONE - will never put a loved one there again.

Care One in Livingston,NJ, or should I say CARE NONE.Incompetent nursing staff, especially Stella & Michelle to name a few. Rude & Arrogant aides especially Sharon. The 11pm -7am shift is the worst no one does anything. The supervisors do nothing as your loved ones are in Distress. The nursing staff is poorly trained as are the aides. Something needs to be done, or our loved ones will Die before their time.

I wouldn't bring anymore family members here if they paid me a million dollars. My stepmom Julie passed away on Thursday, November 19, 2015 [removed]. My stepmom had been sick for a long time suffering for the effects of a massive stroke 5 years ago, that surprising she survived. Julie came here unable to speak due to a trek and scare tissue blocking her vocal cords. Earlier Wednesday she had gone to a doctor appointment, was sitting up in her chair and having a great day. At 4 am Thursday we received a call that she went into cardiac arrest and which she did not recover. [removed] This place has way too many patients and not enough staff. They don't check on the paitrnts enough. [removed] Don't ever bring your family member here! The fact that I had to give this place even have a star makes me sick.

Comment: This is a review for the Care One Nursing Home - which comes up as Care Morris AL when you search for it on this website. I have been visiting my mother who has been living here for about 7 years. I have to say that the one consistent thing you can count on at this facility is that it is always chaotic and unsupervised. There are certain staff members who try their best to support the residents but THEY are not being supported by management. There has been a new Administrator almost every year she's been there and every Administrator fails to lead the staff well - the current one included (Tim) whom I've never seen once, has never taken the opportunity to get to know the residents and does not respond to any questions or concerns. This facility has been appropriately written up to the Dept of Health numerous times and guess what happens? All of the "staff" you never usually see crawl out of their offices during the DOH visits and put on their best behavior. It's atrocious. The Board of Officers and Owner should be ashamed of themselves. Why can't they get supervision in line and give the residents and staff the support they deserve?

I wouldn’t send a dog or my worst enemy here! You’ve heard the old saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” Well… don’t be fooled by the nice appearance of this facility! They know how to “talk the talk” here, but they sure can’t “walk the walk.” We visited the facility and were impressed by the beautiful setting and appearance and we were assured that they would have no problem handling a patient who came to them for therapy as a “max assist” after a stroke. What we found was that this lovely facility on the outside was a real “hell hole” when you were on the inside. There is a serious lack of respect in the way patients are treated. Mom came from an acute rehab center (Marlton Rehab), where she received excellent rehab and was treated respectfully. Whenever she needed to go to the bathroom or get into or out of bed, someone was there to help her and it was no problem at Marlton. She was taken to the bathroom when she needed to go and was helped in and out of bed several times a day at Marlton, so she could change positions and rest. Upon arrival at Care One, we suddenly found that my elderly mom was expected to stay in bed for 12-14 hours, then stay in a wheelchair for the remaining 10 to 12 hours. Ridiculous! NO-ONE stays in the same position for that long and remains healthy. Suddenly, at Care One, Mom could no longer get a shower, but could only have bed baths. She could no longer use a toilet or even a commode, but had to use a bed pan! This was demeaning and a move backwards, when in the immediate days and weeks after her stroke, she was able to do these things! The difference was not in Mom’s abilities, but in the abilities of those around her. Response time to call bells was long. Though some staff members were polite and helpful, there were staff members who treated mom roughly and who were extremely rude and nasty to Mom and family members. Mom was initially placed in a double room, but her portion of the room was no bigger than a closet! The hospital bed was against the wall, leaving her paralyzed side to the wall. Next to the bed, there was not even room for a chair! We had to stretch/crawl across Mom to try to prop her bad hand on a pillow and staff could not properly get to her to care for her. It was a completely inappropriate setting! Therapists were unskilled and negative. They continually gave the same cues to patients, when those cues were obviously not working. There was a serious lack of positive feedback. Physical and occupational therapy were lumped together into one marathon, exhausting, session, rather than being split into morning and afternoon sessions. Therapists work with numerous patients at the same time, walk away from patients while they are supposed to be working with them, even leaving the gym area. Patients spend much more time “resting” in a session than they spend doing therapy. The gym is very busy, packed with therapists and patients, making for many distractions for both the therapists and particularly the patients. Patients were not given a schedule for therapy and were often left sitting for hours, being told that therapy would be “soon.” We started trying to get Mom into another facility after the very first day, but unfortunately, it took two long weeks to find another placement. Every step of the way was a battle here! We met with director after director, but the place was still horrible! My experience was in fall of 2011, but, from what I have heard, things have not changed! My [removed]’t even give this place a bit of consideration!
