Family and resident reviews note a variety of experiences at Princeton. Positive feedback references a clean and well-maintained environment, dedicated therapy staff, and successful rehabilitation outcomes for some residents. Named staff members and therapists are frequently commended for their knowledge and dedication. Residents who are more independent or have family members involved in their care often report more favorable experiences and better outcomes. Structured activity programs and administrative support have also received praise in some accounts.
However, concerns are noted in reviews from families of residents with complex care needs or cognitive impairments. Recurring issues include reports of chronic understaffing, delayed response to calls for assistance, and gaps in communication between staff and families. Some reviewers have raised concerns regarding medication management, hygiene support, and supervision. Experiences of preventable injuries and inconsistencies in basic care and meal provision have also been reported. Reviewers consistently suggest a variability in care quality that appears to depend on individual staff, resident needs, and staff availability. The facility’s ability to provide extensive oversight and individualized support for higher acuity nursing or memory care residents has been questioned by a portion of families.
Princeton Transitional Care & Assisted Living continues to emphasize tailored transitional care and therapy services, but families are encouraged to consider the level of supervision and support their loved one may require when choosing a placement.
