It broke my heart when I could no longer care for my Mother at home and had to place her into residential care. I believe the good Lord guided me in choosing Alcoeur Gardens, it was the best decision I could have made. I never once had to worry if she was getting proper care…..was she fed, bathed, loved. I cannot praise everyone enough for the wonderful care and affection she received.
When her time came to meet her maker, she was treated with kindness and respect. The staff at Alcoeur Gardens did everything that could be done to ease her passing, which was not only a comfort to her, but to me as well. At Alcoeur Gardens everyone truly is family.
The final testament to your commitment to family and caring is the wonderful scrapbook that Julie made for me documenting my Mother’s time there. Words cannot express how much that scrapbook means to me. I will cherish it always.
Thank you again for everything!
Sincerely,
- Beverly
We are writing this note of deepest gratitude to thank each one of you for the outstanding kindness, commitment, and care you gave to Pinky in his 13 month stay at Alcoeur Gardens. Sadly, our family has determined that entering a skilled nursing facility at this late stage of his Alzheimer’s Disease is most appropriate for him.
We will miss you all terribly; but we will be forever grateful for the outstanding quality of life and friendship and concern and caring that you gave him and all his family members at beautiful Alcoeur Gardens.
It has been said that God brings angels into a person’s life when they need it; and that is exactly how we feel about all of you. You are the warmth and magic of Alcoeur Gardens; and you will always occupy a special place in our hearts.
With loving gratitude and deepest friendship.

Please accept my heartfelt thanks for the great care that Alcoeur Gardens is providing my Mother who suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease. Over three years ago, my family came to the difficult decision to place our Mother into full-time care.
Certainly I wanted Mom to have the best care possible, so I researched over two dozen “big” name care facilities in both Monmouth and Ocean counties that typically run full-page newspaper and direct-mail advertising.
Since I had not known of your facility at the time, I placed my Mother in a “big” name facility for the first two years. During my frequent visits with her, I would often find her neglected and sitting alone in her room, not getting the proper nutrition and too often not well-groomed even though the “big” facility had a large staff.
I finally decided to investigate other Alzheimer’s care facilities and I discovered Alcoeur Gardens. Mom has been in your care for over a year now, and I can honestly say that your staff is outstanding in every area of care.
Mom is always clean, she is always present in all the daily activities and she enjoys the tasty nutritional meals. Your facility is clean and orderly any time I visit. The staff is always attentive to each resident and does whatever is necessary to provide a safe and caring environment. What a delight it is to have outstanding care. I would recommend Alcoeur Gardens over any “big” name facility and I would be happy to share my thoughts with any perspective client that you might have.
Warmest regards,
- Robert
My brother visited my step mother Jane at your facility yesterday and gave such a glowing report. I live in California and travel is difficult. Jane was the love of my father’s life and she is very precious to us. I want to thank you for the kind environment you have created and for taking such great care of our loved one.

I am always impressed with the staff at Alcoeur Gardens. The turnover is low and that is a direct result of the way the kindness and compassion resonates from the management down to the staff and then onto the residents. We are very happy and most impressed. Also everyone is approachable and that is much appreciated.
I feel that email correspondence would be of benefit to both the family and the staff at Alcoeur Gardens. When my Mom needs something, a quick email can be sent if need be followed up by a phone call. Also, if I have a concern about something I can send off a short email and a time to discuss by phone or in person can be set up. I would rather take up less time using email so more time can go towards taking care of the residents. Also, making phone calls can be disruptive to the staffs day. I know that all staff is available and very approachable but an email would allow time for all to meet concerns more efficiently.

Thank you for the timely manner in which you were able to place my cousin Muriel McGowan at your facility. Please extend my thanks as well to your staff who got her settled in and are now caring for her.
Enclosed is a small token of appreciation from my wife Jody and myself. We hope you enjoy it.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your support of last month’s Alzheimer’s Respite Care fund raising event. Thanks to people like you, Epiphany Knights of Columbus council was able to raise over $2,500.00, which was donated to Caregivers of Central Jersey for their Alzheimer’s program. As this was the first event of this magnitude for us we are certain it would not have been as successful if not for the compassionate support you and your business gave us. On behalf of a grateful council please accept my most sincere thanks.
Sincerely,
- James
