Parker At Somerset, Inc. in Somerset, New Jersey operates as a skilled nursing home, providing 24-hour medical oversight from registered nurses and licensed practical nurses. Residents have access to wound management, IV therapy, pain management, respiratory services, post-surgical recovery programs, and ongoing monitoring for chronic conditions. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists work on-site to deliver individualized rehabilitation plans, while on-call physicians and pharmacists support medication adjustments and clinical consultations.
Beyond the direct medical services, the facility coordinates care plans that cover assistance with bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication administration. A secure environment with call systems ensures rapid response to emergencies, and care team meetings with families help adjust support levels as residents’ needs change. Social services staff assist with discharge planning, insurance coordination, and emotional support, while therapeutic recreation specialists organize cognitive and physical activities designed to maintain engagement and functional ability.
Accommodations include a mix of private and shared rooms furnished with hospital-grade adjustable beds, accessible bathrooms, and built-in storage. Select rooms also offer in-room climate controls, cable television, and Wi-Fi access, but not every accommodation includes all of these features. Housekeeping, laundry service, and maintenance are provided according to facility schedules, and residents can personalize their spaces within safety guidelines.
Meals are prepared on site under the supervision of a registered dietitian, with menus tailored to meet clinical requirements such as low-sodium, diabetic, or pureed diets. Three daily meals are served in the communal dining room, and staff provide assistance for residents who need help with feeding or adaptive utensils. Snacks and hydration stations are available between meals, and therapeutic diets or meal substitutions can be arranged when ordered by the attending physician.
