Overview of Little Senior Residence

Facebook

Little Senior Residence provides assisted living, memory care, nursing care, and respite care in Montclair, NJ. Assisted living helps residents with daily tasks while they maintain their own living space. Memory care provides a supervised setting for someone who may be at risk of wandering, while nursing care supports residents with ongoing nursing needs. Respite care offers a short-term stay for a resident whose usual caregiver is traveling or recovering.

Several care types are available in one community. A resident whose needs change may be able to remain there rather than begin again elsewhere. Little Senior Residence may be a good fit for someone who needs memory support, nursing care, or a temporary stay while a family caregiver is unavailable.

The home offers private and semi-private rooms, including suites with bathrooms. A private room provides personal living space, while a semi-private room accommodates a resident who shares the space with a companion. Residents can take part in recreation and enrichment activities and spend time in the home’s gardens. The starting price is $200 per day. An 83 Walk Score places the area in the very walkable range, so most errands can be done on foot, and a resident who no longer drives may still be able to reach nearby shops or services independently. Little Nursing Home operates Little Senior Residence.
