“Care One is a wonderful place. The entire staff is encouraging, friendly and always appropriate. The space is clean and picturesque, especially the dining room (which has an enormous brick fireplace) and the friendly servers. There are some really good dishes: look for the cholent, lamb stew and beef brisket. The physical and occupational therapists are always positive and encouraging and real…”

“This was a very awesome facility that took care of my mom. Clean, respectful, inviting, when I came up from Florida, I was extremely happy to how well she had been taken care. I’m grateful and forever appreciate and will tell everyone I know this facility takes care of their patients. Give Thanks🤲🏾♥️”

★★★★★Ted Nikolis · 2026-03-13 · via Google

“People were all very helpful and good natured. My aide Sarah was outstanding and very attentive. Both the occupational and the physical therapy groups were very effective in getting my range of motion substantially back. Will need to finish the job at home. My insurance covered the entire cost so I assume they were satisfied with the service as well”
