Hi all, my uncle (who raised me and is practically my father) was recently diagnosed with dementia. I live in NYC and he lives in Virginia, I’m hoping to move him to a memory care facility in New Jersey in a few months. Are there any memory care facilities in NJ that people can recommend?

Thanks so much!

    Former Jersey girl here - No experience with facilities, but have heard that CareOne in Livingston is pretty good. Unfortunately, NJ is one of the highest in cost, though.

    Don't know what area of NJ you are interested in looking, but you can also check out others here: https://health.usnews.com/best-nursing-homes/area/nj?long_term=true&page=5&sort=rating
