Overall Review of Somerset Ridge Center
caveat6 reviews mention this
Call button response is criticized
Residents and families describe long waits and missed calls after using the call button.
Several reviews say staff took a long time to respond after residents pushed the call button, including reports of delays that lasted close to an hour or more. Other reviewers describe situations where calls for updates were not answered, or where alarms and needs went unaddressed until someone pointed it out. A few accounts also connect these delays to missed bathroom assistance when residents needed help getting there.

Some reviews describe medication issues that go beyond general inconvenience, including reports of multiple shifts without medications and long gaps for pain medicine. Others mention waiting repeatedly for pills and timing being well past what was promised. A few accounts also tie medication or hydration delays to worsening health outcomes and subsequent hospital visits.

Elder law attorneys assist older adults and their families with legal matters such as estate planning, Medicaid eligibility, and guardianships, while also providing protection against elder abuse. They help navigate complex regulations to safeguard financial resources, ensure well-being, and maintain autonomy for seniors.
Caregiving for an aging parent entails emotional and financial responsibilities accompanied by significant tax implications, including potential benefits from claiming them as dependents and deductions for medical expenses and caregiving costs. Caregivers must understand eligibility requirements, maintain thorough documentation, and consider consulting a tax professional to navigate these complexities effectively.
Low-impact exercises are vital for seniors as they promote health, independence, and social interaction while reducing joint strain. These adaptable activities, guided by healthcare professionals, enhance strength, flexibility, and emotional well-being.
