Maplewood at Princeton in Plainsboro offers assisted-living that centers on consistent medical oversight. Licensed nurses are on site around the clock to monitor residents’ vital signs, manage medications, and coordinate directly with physicians and outside specialists. The community arranges lab work, imaging, and rehabilitation therapies on premises when possible, limiting the need for residents to travel off-site for routine clinical needs. Each resident receives an individualized care plan that is reviewed regularly to adjust for changing health conditions, ensuring that assistance with activities of daily living—such as bathing, dressing, and mobility—is calibrated to current medical status rather than set on a static schedule.
Beyond core medical supervision, Maplewood at Princeton provides features aimed at maintaining residents’ overall well-being. Care teams facilitate scheduled wellness checks, fall-prevention reviews, and cognitive fitness sessions that complement primary medical services. Emergency call systems link directly to staff stations for rapid response, and transportation is arranged for off-site specialty appointments. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists visit the community by referral to keep residents’ rehabilitative programs on track, while social workers help coordinate discharge planning should a hospital stay occur.
Accommodations include private studios, one-bedroom apartments, and some companion suites, each designed with a step-in shower, grab bars, and an emergency pull cord. Select units add kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and in-unit washers and dryers, while others rely on centralized laundry services; not all apartments have every feature. Weekly housekeeping, linen service, and routine maintenance are part of the basic package, and Wi-Fi and cable connections are available for residents who choose those options.
Dining is provided three times daily in a central restaurant-style venue, prepared by a culinary team working with a registered dietitian to meet nutritional guidelines and physician-ordered restrictions such as low-sodium, diabetic-friendly, or mechanically altered diets. A lighter-fare bistro is open for snacks and beverages, and staff can arrange tray service to accommodations during illness or post-procedure recovery. Menu rotation is published in advance so residents and families can review choices, and caregivers communicate any changes in swallowing ability or appetite to the culinary staff to ensure meals remain appropriate.
