Key Review Excerpts
“My mother suffers from dementia and has been a resident since 2019 at Newark Manor. I cannot say enough good things about the staff. My mother is not the easiest resident to care for, but the staff are patient and do a wonderful job with her.”
“My mom was here for about 6 months, 2020/2021. The care was excellent. Very compassionate. Allow my sisters and me to have frequent contact with mom via facetime and in-person visits, while always compliant with COVID protocols.”
“The staff were always friendly and patient with my dad even on his bad days with the dementia.”
