240 reviews on Google“CareOne at Teaneck receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility for its excellent rehabilitation therapy, clean environment, and high-quality kosher dining options. However, a significant number of reviewers report serious concerns regarding neglect, understaffing, and poor communication, with some families describing traumatic experiences involving their loved ones' health decline. Prospective families should weigh the strong clinical and dietary services against consistent reports of slow call-bell response times and inconsistent nursing oversight.”
