Salemhaven in Salem, New Hampshire, operates as a skilled nursing home, providing round-the-clock supervision and assistance with daily activities for residents who require a higher level of medical oversight. Licensed nursing staff remain on duty at all times to monitor vital signs, manage medications, and coordinate physician-ordered care plans. The facility’s primary goal is to maintain residents’ health and safety while supporting as much independence as each individual’s condition allows.

Complementing its core nursing services, Salemhaven offers on-site physical therapy to help residents preserve or regain mobility after illness, surgery, or injury. Short-stay respite care is also available, allowing caregivers a temporary break while residents receive the same clinical attention as long-term clients. Care coordination teams regularly review progress notes, therapy outcomes, and physician recommendations to adjust treatment plans quickly when needs change, ensuring continuity of care.

Private and semi-private rooms are available, and select accommodations include features such as outdoor patio access, a fireplace lounge, or views of the landscaped garden; not every room offers every feature, so prospective residents should verify individual room layouts during a tour. Housekeeping, utilities, and basic cable television are included in the monthly rate, and residents have access to communal spaces such as outdoor seating areas and a combined library and computer lounge for reading, internet use, and quiet leisure.

The culinary team prepares three daily meals with menus designed to support varied dietary requirements. Standard options cover low-sodium, vegetarian, kosher-style, and gluten-free selections, and staff dietitians can tailor further modifications when allergens or medical conditions require it. Meals are served in a central dining room to encourage social interaction, and nurses monitor intake for residents with special nutritional needs.

Residents looking for structured engagement can join scheduled activities in the on-site activity center, ranging from arts and crafts sessions to live entertainment events. Clubs and interest groups meet regularly, and staff organize social outings to local points of interest to keep residents connected with the community beyond the campus.
