Distinctive Living

We chose The Chelsea because it had a homey feeling and was not too large. The room sizes here are a good size for what she needs my mom is in a studio apartment. She says the food is hit or miss depending on the dya. Overall the director and staff members are very nice. I would recommend to others looking.

The staff is very nice and very welcoming. They answered all of my questions. They're very caring. My loved one has fallen a few times and they've immediately called me to let me know what's going on. It seems like a very well run operation. The room is not huge but nice. There's a bathroom with a big bedroom / living room area. I kind of expected it to be a furnished room, but it's not. And that' seems to be the standard across the industry. Everything I've seen has been pretty clean - nothing dirty, nothing laying around that shouldn't be laying around. My loved one tells me the food is very good. They've just now all been vaccinated, so they're starting to get activities going again.

We chose The Chelsea at Forsgate because of the friendliness of staff members as well as the location of it, it was close so we would be able to visit often. The room sizes here were adequate for what he needed. I would absolutely recommend them to other families.

The whole staff go above and beyond to help you, including the directors. They get the struggle in regards to the pandemic. The nursing staff was wonderful. The feeling of home, from the second I walked in I could feel the warmth and it was the best feeling.

The cleanliness of the community and friendliness of the staff members would get a 5 plus, they are just so good. They have only recently open backed up the dining room, and the people here have just really gone out of their way.

The community feels like home. They have a good layout and they have had a good covid plan and have kept the residence safe. The staff is very friendly and very quick and responsive. The residents are friendly too. I would recommend this community to others

During the time our loved one was there, they were very good and the staff members were excellent especially our main contact, she was fabulous.

I think this is a residential type of environment. The facility is very clean, they have a bus for transportation and all their medical needs are met. I would highly recommend this community to others.

Our dad has been here since July and the change is amazing! He eats everything and put on weight he needed. No more swollen ankles or boredom! He paints, goes on walks, reads and sings when The Temptations are on! He looks forward to daily activities and all of the staff and fellow residents.! A great community in every way. Thank you!

We chose The Chelsea at Brick because of the proximity to our house. The room sizes are a little on the smaller size, she is in a double. My mother in law loves the food, she talks about it all the time. She has a menu so she gets to pick what she eats, it is nutritious and healthy. Communication has been excellent from the staff members, especially with what has been going on. We love that we know she is safe and taken of. We would absolutely recommend.

We chose The Chelsea Assisted Living facility because it was closer to the family. The room sizes are adequate, they could be a little bit bigger. The food is a normal menu and nothing spectacular, but it is adequate. I would recommend this community to a friend or family member.

The staff is extremely friendly and very accommodating. My father was on the dementia side, and they were amazing. They did as much as they could for everybody. The care services were excellent. They took the residence out for walks, and even to get ice cream. The food at this community every once in awhile was a little bland, or sometimes not as hot as it should be. They offered different varieties to choose from, overall it was okay. The rooms at this community reminded us of college dorm rooms.

I would feel very safe to recommend this place for my friends' loved ones. I had my loved one there for a year, and her care was excellent. The room was very nice. She was by herself in a large room, and a bathroom in her room. We were able to use her own furniture. They do ask for you to provide your own furniture start with.

Brooklyn Pointe is very clean and has a great staff. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The activities and events are amazing! They do a great job keeping the families connected through COVID.

We had a wonderful experience with The Chelsea. The community was usually clean. The staff was very nice and we thought the care was very good as well. They did have some activities available for the residents to participate in although our aunt wasn't able to participate all that much. We absolutely thought The Chelsea At Montville was worth the cost. They were very helpful in all aspects of our aunt's care and the staff are top notch.

I live out of state and although the circumstances right now are difficult with the lock down, the community puts a lot of effort into keeping families informed. The administrator sends out a daily email to the families with updates of what is going on in the community which I appreciate. Also, the nurse and administrator are readily accessible and promptly call me back, which is so helpful. The community seems more like a fancy hotel then other facilities we visited. The staff seem knowledge and are very friendly.

It was mom's idea to go into assisted living. After looking at a few local communities, we decided on The Chelsea in Montville. Pros: lots of activities, friendly staff, large closet space, and almost everything is on one floor. Cons: mom sometimes waits longer than she'd like for assistance, and food is sometimes not as warm or tasty as she would want it. I was impressed that we fit all this furniture in the room: XL twin bed, dresser, chest of drawers, 2 nightstands, wing chair, and kitchenette table. Plus they supply a small fridge and counter/cabinet combo. This still leaves plenty of floor space in the middle of the room. Besides a large dining toom, the common space has chair groupings, a small coffe/tea area. There is slso a library/game room, a tv room, and a craft/kitchen room. I'm excited to see what the outside courtyards and gardens look like once the weather warms up.

great employees, great atmosphere, great facility, great place to feel the love.

I thought the entire community was beautiful and every staff person I met with was very friendly and helpful; it was an excellent experience for me, as I am just beginning the process.

New facility, staff friendly, seems like a lot of activities are available
