“Words cannot begin to express how grateful we are for all the love and care provided at Montclair Villa during four years our mom, Ruth was with you. She enjoyed everything at Montclair Villa. She loved the great food, participating in activities, taking field trips, and watching the garden grow. She adored Bobbi, and felt she was part of the family. You had a lot to do with her becoming so positive, along with improving the quality of her life. We never had to worry about her care. You are a true professional and an angel! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

With warm affection and love,

-Marty and Debbie

“In July of 2002 I interviewed and inspected a Board and Care home managed by Bobbi Stefan. I was immediately impressed by her friendliness yet business-like manner. After placing my father in her care, I was so pleased with her personal feelings for him and her other “boarders.” She is very caring, pleasant and concerned for all she cares for. Her home and rooms were very clean and the meals good and nutritious.”

“Bobbi Stefan took wonderful care of my mother from March 2002 until she passed away in November 2007. I have never seen another care facility, whether it be large or small, that provides the quality of care that Montclair Villa does. As my mother’s health grew worse and she required a greater level of care she wasn’t turned away but instead got the best care she could possibly get. I truly believe Bobbi is an angel God sent down to care for our elderly. I feel blessed to have found Montclair Villa.”

“We feel it’s about time we wrote a testimonial to the special care you give to our Mom, Alice Packard. Alice was diagnosed with Dementia a few years ago. When we discovered we could no longer care properly for Alice/Mom we looked long and hard for the right place for her to live. We decided looking to a home that offers a loving, caring, understanding, always positive atmosphere. We had visited so many care homes that did not truly care. Upon entering your home and meeting you and your staff it was immediately apparent that YOU CARE and that you understand what the dementia patient needs and are willing to always provide that special care. When we visit Alice/Mom she always seems “at home.” She is always smiling, cheerful and healthy. Let me state a few of the items that we feel set Montclair Villa above other residential care homes:

You immediately wanted and did take the major role in Alice’s health care. You take her to medical appointments and interact extremely well with her doctor to insure she maintains good health, monitor medications and proper treatments.

You have a regular socialization program. Mom so enjoys her Bunco and other games with the other ladies at your facility with the program director.

You ensure Mom is eating healthy meals daily with snacks. You also ensure her hydration is maintained. Thank YOU!

Mom is always clean, well dressed and groomed.

You keep us informed of all Mom’s care and special needs or problems that arise. You and your staff are so attentive to all the ladies living with you. I always witness loving care given to all. It shows in the smiles and comfort in their faces during your interactions.”

-Kathy Packard

“You allowed us to bring some of Moms furniture and pictures into your home –which bring her comfort and joy. Your facility will take care of Mom for the rest of her life. We appreciate that your facility offers all levels of care for dementia/Alzheimer’s patients up to and including hospice care.

Last but not least, you have Ynes the cat. Mom has always been an animal lover and she interacts with your cat so well. We know it comforts her to have a pet and helps to make your home her home!

Over the last year we have seen a considerable cross-section of the care you give to all the residents at Montclair Villa and we are very impressed and grateful. We have so appreciated the attention to detail for each of the residents, whether it is their food, medication, their general care and surroundings. Your ability to cope with the different and individual behavior patterns of those in your care is nothing short of remarkable. We cannot tell you how much it means to all our family to know that Alice finds herself in a truly pleasant and kind environment with such good care.”

-Kathy Packard

“Radu, I want to thank you for everything you have done for my mom while you have taken over for Bobbi and Ted. It takes a special person to dedicate themselves to helping others. Your job has such an impact on the ladies in your care and their loved ones. Your simple acts of kindness…flowers, balloons… all mean so much to my mom and I.

God bless!”

-Cathy

“Bobbi, we feel so blessed someone as caring as you are to take care of Bob’s aunt. You are someone who is filled with the essence of Christmas every day of the year, and all your residents benefit greatly from the loving care you provide for them.

God bless you and your family every day of the year!”

-Bob and Ruth Heisen

“Bobbi and Ted,

I want to thank you again for loving my mom and me. I know it was very difficult in the beginning for you. Mom was not easy. But you both saw that mom needed you, God put it on your heart to keep trying and to love her and protect her under your care. If she had left Montclair Villa she would have not lived and because she stayed…she lived. You gave me so many precious memories and moments with my mom that will forever be in my heart. I love you both and will forever be grateful to you.”

“Couldn’t find a better care home!!! My friend and I looked for a few other places to place our friend with dementia and hands down, this was so clearly the best choice. I was constantly amazed at the quality of care my friend received. The staff is amazing-Radu, the owner goes above and beyond for his residents, It is always clean and if I had to ever put someone I loved into a care home, this would be the place I would choose and I would recommend it to anyone who needs an amazing, yet affordable place for their loved ones. Thank you, Montclair Villa!

-Erin Collins

“The care was outstanding for my mother! The atmosphere was so warm and loving! My mother did not want to leave her home, but after being there for only a few days she was happier than she had ever been in years! The attention and care made her feel like a queen. I am so grateful we found this wonderful home!”

-Linda Legg

“Mom has been at Montclair Villa 1 1/2 years and I can’t imagine a better home for her. She is so well care 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.”

“Awesome caregivers, dedicated and always smiling.”

“ I recommended this place to so many of my friends, or neighbors! I was so happy with the care that they provided for my dear mother. We moved her from a big facility where she was constantly getting UTIs and ending up in ER. What I absolutely loved about Montclair Villa is that they were always on top of every new symptom, and we could catch the infection from the beginning, without ending up in the ER every time! Also, their prices were so much reasonable compared to the big facility. It is like getting more care for less $$ and having a family that welcomes you with open arms to make sure everything is ok. My mom had the best care, was always clean, well fed, and most importantly-hydrated! and I just felt so fortunate to have found this place!”
