Hunterdon Hill operates as a residential care home, accepting adults who need day-to-day oversight and the management of specific health conditions. The community can safely accommodate residents who wander, whether those behaviors occur primarily in the morning or at night, and it has protocols for individuals with a history of elopement. Oxygen therapy is supported, and the staff follows physician-ordered special diets, including modified textures or calorie-controlled plans. Admissions are open to adults younger than 60, as well as to older residents. Both oral-medication and insulin-dependent diabetics are monitored, and the team is experienced in caring for individuals with moderate dementia.
An RN or LPN is regularly on site, with a nurse on call around the clock for urgent needs. All exterior doors are alarmed to back up the elopement safeguards, and on-site podiatry visits reduce the need for outside appointments. Staff can provide some physical assistance with bathing, dressing, or toileting, while residents who can manage eating independently are encouraged to do so. Mobility support ranges from standby supervision to a full one-person transfer, and walkers are accommodated and maintained.
Private and semi-private rooms are available; most are furnished and equipped for cable service, though a few require residents to supply their own furniture or arrange for cable installation. Common areas are arranged for easy navigation, and maintenance handles basic upkeep so that residents can focus on their routines.
Meals follow a set menu prepared in consultation with dietitians, aligning with the clinical guidelines in each care plan. Between meals, snacks are available to help residents maintain stable blood sugar and meet caloric goals. Special diet orders, including diabetes-specific needs, are integrated into the kitchen’s daily workflow.
Residents have access to several practical amenities, including outdoor smoking areas, an on-site barber and beauty shop, community internet access, and regularly scheduled religious services held in the building. A stair glide is installed to assist residents who prefer to attend activities on different floors without negotiating steps.
