Amber Court of Elizabeth NJ, Assisted Living in Elizabeth NJ

Amber Court of Elizabeth has been a blessing to me and my family. It makes me sad to see ignorant people that doesnt ask questions post negative reviews. From the moment I walked in I was told that they dont have a Dementia unit nor that they have a lock down unit. They use a wander guard system to alert the receptionist of confused resident near the door but those who like to go out and are not able are not accepted there. My mom was resistant when she first moved there and now I cant even get her to come home for the holidays. She made new friends and the staff is awesome. The management staff is so helpful. I have see. Things I dont understand and at the moment might not like, but once I speak to someone, things get clear right away. Yes, I see cops there often, but they are there as part of a program Elizabeth town has to keep the neighborhood safe. It made sense when I asked because they do sign a form at the front desk every time they go. Which is 3 to 4 times a day. The residents are free to come and go as they please as long as they dont have a cognition problem. The facility is beautiful and clean. They are very affordable and take Medicaid from the beginning which is very rare. My mom loves the place and she is very happy there. My family is very happy also. Amber Court staff is awesome. 5 Stars dont do them justice. I will give them a 10.

EVERYONE BEWARE: Cops are constantly in and out of this place because residents walk out. They have NO FRONT DOOR SECURITY! THERE IS NO PROTECTION FOR RESIDENTS WHO HAVE DEMENTIA OR JUST PLAIN DO NOT WANT TO BE THERE! Please, please, PLEASE get a more secure place for your family. For $3000 - $4,000 a month this place is NOT WORTH IT. If you have family in this place TAKE THE TIME NOW to ask them how do they feel where they are? Ask them if they have any problems with any of the staff, ask them if they get the help and attention they need, please take a minute to question it. Who treats them well? Who ignores them? Get some names and bring it to the attention of the people in charge. Post it online. Make ppl aware. This place is still in business likely because most of the residents are unable to stand up for themselves, which is sad. so PLEASE take the time to do a little investigating. Thank you.

Amazing best assisted living facility.
