Complete Care at Fair Lawn Edge receives highly polarized feedback, with many families praising the facility for its cleanliness, friendly staff, and attentive care for their loved ones.

Families should be aware that while many report a positive, welcoming environment, there are recurring, severe allegations of substandard care that warrant thorough investigation before placement.

Key Review Excerpts
“I’ve seen lives transformed at complete care. It might not have the look and feel of a upscale nursing home but the love and care is really fantastic. You don’t go there to drop dead but to live your best life possible.”
“The staff was very friendly but the place needs better cleaning my uncle rooms was dirty I had ask the house keeper to clean the bathroom that was my biggest concern cleanness needs more help”
“This place is a literal death trap. Do not send your loved ones here. My sister is a patient and they don’t feed her often. They don’t change her diaper. She comes back from dialysis and there’s no dinner for her.”
