That is the New Jersey median for a semi-private nursing home room, not this community's price. This community's actual rate depends on room type and care level. Ask us for this month's real numbers.

I highly recommend Mountainside Skilled Nursing & Rehab to anyone seeking a skilled nursing and rehabilitation center with outstanding staff, excellent care, and a wonderful atmosphere. It is clear that the residents' well-being is the top priority, and that dedication shines through in every aspect of the facility.
I would like to share the experience I had while staying at Mountainside Skilled Nursing and Rehab. I was admitted in early February and did not go home until March 27th. This was the most positive experience while staying at a rehab. I would never go elsewhere. When I entered the front door I was greeted by Rebecca in a friendly manner. When I got to my room so many of the staff, from Administration to Medical Staff, came in to introduce themselves. What impressed me the most was the concern that everyone had to make sure I was taken care of, and the way they all worked together. Of course the staff is many, but I would like to mention a few that really stood out in my daily care. Angela, Courtney, Faruk, Jennifer, Jessica, Jessie, Keisha, Liz, Lopez, Luke, Rebecca, Rashed, Roxie, Sherri, Veronica, and Wendy. I would like to also mention how impressed I was with the cleanliness of the facility. Housekeeping came in every day and dusted the furniture and windowsill, as well as wet-mopped the floor. I noticed they used a new mop cover in every room. The Physical Therapy/Occupational Therapy Department is wonderful. They all work together and make sure you are comfortable. I cannot say enough positive things about Mountainside Skilled Nursing & Rehab. I highly recommend you consider them if you ever need help.
We have had a great experience at this facility. All of the staff are kind, compassionate, and attentive. The nurses and group facilitators are great and the aides really take the time to know their patients. Courtney, Jennifer, and Sherri have been so helpful and responsive with any questions we have had and really helped us with the transition to this facility. It is never an easy decision to put your loved ones in a long term care facility, but these ladies have helped make it as comfortable and seamless as possible! We are so grateful for the team and care here by all the staff!
This place is horrible. My father was sent here for rehab and within 24 hours his shoes were stolen, his face covered in cuts from Being shaved and left in bed in a soiled diaper. The staff ignored him and we moved him within two days. He was scared the whole time.
