Care One At East Brunswick in East Brunswick, NJ operates as a nursing home that delivers 24-hour skilled nursing care for both short-term rehabilitation and long-term residency. Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants provide round-the-clock monitoring, medication management, wound care, IV therapy, and coordination of specialty services ordered by attending physicians. The center is designed to care for people recovering from surgery, illness, or injury who need a higher level of medical supervision than an assisted-living residence can supply.
Beyond core nursing services, the facility offers respite care so primary caregivers can take a planned break while their family member receives professional support in a fully staffed environment. Care plans are individualized after an assessment that covers medical history, therapy goals, and personal preferences. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work on-site to help residents regain or maintain function, and social workers coordinate discharge planning or transitions to other settings when appropriate. Ancillary services such as on-site laboratory work, radiology coordination, and pharmacy delivery help reduce the need for outside appointments.
Private and semi-private rooms are available, each with basic furnishings and access to an in-room phone, although not every accommodation includes every feature. Rooms have safety-oriented bathrooms, adjustable beds, individual climate controls, and an emergency call system. Housekeeping and laundry services are provided on a set schedule, and maintenance staff handle routine upkeep.
Meals are prepared in a central kitchen under the guidance of a registered dietitian who tailors menus to meet therapeutic diet requirements, texture modifications, and cultural or religious preferences. Residents dine in a communal dining room when possible, which supports social interaction, but tray service is available for those who need or prefer to eat in their rooms. Snacks and hydration stations are accessible throughout the day, and staff can assist with feeding or adaptive utensils when necessary.
Residents have access to an activity center that hosts group programs such as exercise classes, arts, and social events, encouraging engagement and cognitive stimulation. A library and computer lounge provide reading materials, internet access, and space for quiet study or virtual visits with family. These amenities are complemented by scheduled recreational activities, religious services, and transportation arrangements for outside appointments and outings.
