    It was a difficult decision to move Mom out of her home and into a senior residence, but Brookdale West Orange made the decision easier. The property is lovely and well-maintained. Her apartment is spacious, bright and cozy. She loves the food and activities and has come to love her fellow residents. This is a friendly and lively community. Always something good going on. We are very thankful to have found Brookdale West Orange.

    I had a great experience with my Father at Brookdale Senior living in West Orange. He was in hospice there and needed comfort care for 2 weeks. The staff and nurses were so compassionate and caring. Lynda, Diana, Deborah, Trishia and all the nurses and staff were Amazing! The space is bright compared to many we have visited. It’s hidden behind beautiful trees for privacy. Oh! I loved the happy hour too! The food was good and facility was very clean. He wore a necklace that buzzed when he needed nurse service and they would come to help. I hope you would consider having your loved one here. It comforted our family that he was in a good place during his last days with staff tending to him when needed. ♥️

    Updated review Unfortunately our time at Brookdale has come to an end with the passing of my Mom. Looking back Brookdale West Orange was the best choice for my Mom. The nursing and support staff were caring, attentive and truly compassionate. They treated Mom as if she were a family member. They coordinated very well with Hospice care and a private aide care service that they recommended and were excellent in their own right. Could not ask for anything more. My family and I sincerely recommend Brookdale West Orange for all of the reasons I have provided in this review. Very pleased with level of care provided to our Mom. Nursing staff very professional, dedicated and attentive. Staff at all levels very kind, warm and supportive with a very positive attitude for all residents. They will sometimes go above and beyond, which further enhances the experience. Variety of activities in house and via trips. helps foster good community spirit. Safe apartment with new appliances provided on move in. The facilities could use a bit of a sprucing up but are clean and decorated nicely for each season or event. Nice rooms for private celebrations. Given elevated costs for senior living care, overall a really good value. We are very satisfied that we chose Brookdale, West Orange.

    Brookdale West Orange is a great value for the amenities you receive. My friend has recently begun his residency there and has been treated very well from the start. The staff is friendly. They exhibit great patience when working with their residents, especially those who might not readily accept their new living situation. The facility is very clean and the food is excellent. Overall, this has been a wonderful experience so far.
