Montclair Villa

Our mother was here for about a year. My sister and I felt very fortunate to find a place where she was well-cared for, and where we could reach her easily after she was no longer able to use the phone by herself. It felt more like she was at someone's home than in a medical facility, even though her personal and medical needs were substantial due to her Parkinsons. Radu and Dana really are the best.

I met Radu and Dana when I started visiting one of their residents every week. I was immediately struck by their welcoming presence, strong work ethic, and commitment to making their clients feel safe and “at home.” The environment was more comfortable and personalized than typical care facilities. Sadly, my friend has passed on and I haven’t seen Radu and Dana for a few months, but I hope to connect again with them in the future. If you or a loved one are looking for a place with a caring home environment and hard-working staff, then Montclair should be top of the list!

As a previous Geriatric Care Manager, my expectations are quite high. However, Montclair Villa exceeded all of my expectations. Not only are they professional and knowledgeable, but they are loving and kind. Radu is on top of things like noticing changes in condition and a need for medical attention. He is also great with communication/updates and never once complained about our daily calls. Additionally, Dana and Andrea go out of their way with little touches (haircuts, nail painting, cooking favorite meals). It's rare and refreshing to find a home like this, where I feel the quality care is always a priority.

My dad was in the care of Montclair Villa for over 3 years. I had searched/interviewed many facilities in the area but was not comfortable until I went to Montclair. Radu and his staff are great. Professional, experienced in care giving but also they have a passion for what they do. This is what made the difference. It is an excellent facility that provided great care (above and beyond) for my dad. My dad asked that he remain there for the remainder of the time he had as they took great care of him. I would strongly recommend that if you have a loved one that needs true care and caring, please check out Montclair Villa.

Mom has been at Montclair Villa for 1 1/2 years and I can't imagine a better home for her. She is so well cared for - always clean, groomed and dressed, well fed and hydrated, tended to and assisted with all her needs. Staff are professional and so very caring about all of the residents and their extended families. I can drop in any time and feel welcome. I have no doubt that mom is given all of her medications on a regular basis exactly as prescribed, and the fact that her overall condition has improved and her hospital visits have drastically decreased since she moved here, is a testament to the excellent care she receives. Radu and his staff pay very close attention to mom and her changing needs, and are exceptional at communicating with family about her status. They are well versed in caring for the elderly and are so patient with finding the right solution for each new issue. Mom has lived at a couple of larger assisted living communities and I felt like I always had to monitor their care of mom. They were very expensive and the care was inconsistent and unreliable. At Montclair Villa, I don't worry about Mom because I have complete trust in the staff and know that their primary concern is giving Mom the best care possible. I am so grateful I found Radu and Montclair Villa.
