Arbor Terrace in Mountainside offers both Assisted Living and Memory Care, with programs designed to accommodate residents who wander during the day or night, are at risk of elopement, or live with advanced dementia. Medical management covers wound care, oxygen therapy, special diets, and diabetic support for residents on oral medications, injections, or a sliding-scale regimen. The care team collaborates with physicians and families to adjust treatment plans as needs change.

Round-the-clock oversight is provided by registered and licensed nurses who are on site 24 hours a day and backed up by an on-call nurse. All employees undergo background checks, and an awake night shift monitors residents with the help of pull-cord systems and personal emergency response devices that alert staff instantly. A visiting podiatrist handles routine foot care, and full assistance is available with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Residents who use walkers, wheelchairs, or need one-person transfers can be safely moved thanks to trained staff and proper equipment. An activity director coordinates daily programs that are adapted for different cognitive and physical abilities.

Apartments may include a private bathroom, kitchenette, independent temperature controls, cable service, and the option to paint or decorate, although not every unit has all of these features. The goal is to let residents personalize their space while still keeping safety features in place.

Meals are prepared to order, and snacks are available throughout the day. The culinary team can modify menus to meet physician-ordered diets, manage carbohydrate counts for diabetics, and accommodate other nutritional requirements such as low-sodium or mechanical-soft textures.

Community amenities include resident parking, an exercise room, movie room, wellness center, beauty and barber shop, internet access, communal gardens, and on-site religious services. The property is wheelchair accessible, offers scheduled transportation, and permits smoking in designated outdoor areas. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
