  Friend fell out of bed three times, had half her skull removed due to a brain aneurysm , only 40 years old, recovering and they still wouldn't put up side rails, said it was illegal which is not true, per health department and next 3 nursing homes had them. They took no precautions to fix the problem, lied did not monitor her at all, everytime I went to visit she was halfway off the bed. Didn't follow protocol after falls and send her to hospital until I insisted. Final fall almost killed her, social worker at hospital filed complaint and investigation insued by health department which they covered up and finally she thankfully was moved elsewhere. Nursing homes are not the greatest places but keeping the patient safe should be a priority. If your loved one is a fall risk do not put them in this place or you are at risk of them falling out of bed and they don't care at all, collateral damage to them. You have to be pretty sick to not care about causing permanent damage or death. Bad Karma

She goes above and beyond, even when some people take advantage of her willingness to help. She never says no, and her heart for residents is genuine. She is a SUPER CNA/RNA and a true blessing to have in the facility. Joanna, RNA, is responsible, attentive, and very consistent. Overall: Somerset is filled with hardworking people who genuinely care. Minor issues do arise occasionally, but the staff handle them professionally and efficiently, often before they become real problems.

  I’m pretty skeptical about the care at this nursing home, my grandmother has been here since June 2025 and originally she was doing pretty good, but over the months her condition has deteriorated with multiple hospital stays since then and bad pressure wounds found on her that we don’t know were properly cared for, not to mention she also contracted MRSA & C auris here. She’ll now have to be sent to an LTAC hospital because of how frail she’s become. This facility is clean and staff has been good for the most part but I would do research before sending loved ones here, especially if they’re older and have cognitive issues like my grandmother does.
