Juniper Village at Chatham

Juniper Village at Chatham is a wonderful facility. My mother came here one month ago after living independently all her life. She is 92 years old and she needed extra care after a fall. She has received excellent attention and care from the first day. Every staff member is courteous, respectful, friendly, patient and always greeting everyone with a smile and an acknowledgement. Everyone is truly genuine here. After my mother experienced some awful staff interactions and level of care in her rehab hospitals, Juniper was like a breath of fresh air. I wish I knew every staff members name but I will mention those that I have interacted most with starting with Janel, Amanda, Lynn, Paul, Maria, Sharon, Max, Grace, all the receptionists, Natalie and Destiny. Destiny's position is unique and essential. She gets to know each resident and helps them to transition. She made the process much easier and she continues to be my main point of contact when I need something for my mother. This is very helpful. Communication with all is excellent (if I text someone they immediately reply back to me). All the staff should get recognition. My mother is still adjusting but with each day she seems more and more comfortable. The food is so good and the portions are substantial and all the servers are very helpful in helping my mother with her meal choices. Her room is beautiful overlooking the courtyard, there are interesting activities, and the facility is clean and welcoming in its decor and warmth. I am very happy that I discovered Juniper and feel very secure in knowing that my mother is being well taken care of.

Top Notch Facility!!! Amanda & Janel work extremely hard at providing a true Ritz Carlton experience to every guest! Everything is absolutely immaculate and run beautifully! My parents, Fernanda & Vincent Coccio constantly rave about Sharon Thompson, the waitress. She goes above & beyond to ensure everyone is well served and thoroughly satisfied with every meal. I highly recommend Juniper Village!

My mom moved into Juniper Village in Chatham in January 2025. She had been putting off going into managed care and was very apprehensive. However, as she now tells anyone who will ask her, “My new home is the nicest place. The people are friendly and the staff are kind and caring. They take terrific care of me and I’m very happy here .” My family and I are relieved to know that Mom is so well taken care of and that she’s happy. I’m glad that we found such a great place for her to live.

This place is terrific. Warm community, comfortable lodging, and they’ve taken such good care of our Mom.

A few years ago I took my mother to visit about 6-8 Assisted Living and Continuing Care facilities in and around Morris County. She was not interested in any of them at the time. Eventually the time had come where she could no longer live at home. When I asked her where she would like to go she said she liked the staff she met at Juniper Village of Chatham and asked to go see that one again. I can’t tell you how seamless they made the transition. Trust me my brilliant Mother who is fiercely independent & very hard to please was very skeptical. She had lived in her house since 1966 when we moved in. Fast forward to now , 3 years after she moved in and she is very content and satisfied with every aspect of Junipers Assisted Living facility, including the food as well as there Physical Therapy department and activities department. Of course she missed her home, but the staff at Juniper did everything to make sure her needs are taken care of. Juniper is remarkably self contained with their own transport and some diagnostic testing, OT & PT on site. Eventually I had to go back to my job. Leaving with the peace of mind I felt with her care at Juniper was everything to me. I, her daughter live out of state very far away. The Air Force sent me to Fairbanks Alaska many years ago and I built a life up there 43 years ago. Although my Mother has been up to visit 5-6 times she would not entertain moving there with me. I work in a skilled nursing facility so I know good facilities from not so good. The family atmosphere at Juniper is very strong. Their Activities and Wellness team is just that a close knit team. There are calendars for activities and many choices every day. I receive phone calls from The Wellness team any time there is a change in her routine, eval , med change etc… The communication with the resident and family members is better than I ever expected. There are many modes of communication with Juniper. They have a great website, Portal and I’ve never had to wait more than 24 hours at the most to have questions and concerns addressed via email or phone. They always give frequent updates on happenings at Juniper. They help my mom with her mail and are very protective of the resident at Juniper of Chatham. I obviously can’t say enough good things about Juniper Village of Chatham. I appreciate them so much. I come back up to 5-6 times a year and appreciate their consistency with the care the great food and friendly atmosphere all Around. Thank you Juniper.
