We recommend considering a care community as early as possible when memory loss and early-cognitive decline symptoms are detected by your physician and other trusted family members. This will ensure you are receiving the best care possible that will prevent further decline and improve your overall lifestyle.

Regularly feeling unstable or experiencing a recent fall, chronic pain or other conditions that are becoming harder to manage, feelings of loneliness or isolation—especially when you still want to be social: these are all characteristics of someone who would benefit from a move into an assisted living community. If you’re trying to determine if the time is right, give us a call; our team is here to help.

The difference between a nursing home and the Bridges neighborhood at Arbor Terrace Basking Ridge centers around the level of care provided, the environment, and the focus of the programs offered to residents. 

While nursing homes are designed to provide 24/7 medical care and assistance to individuals with severe or chronic health conditions that require constant medical monitoring and access to nursing care, the Bridges neighborhood is tailored to support residents who may need some assistance with daily activities but do not require the intensive medical and nursing care provided in a nursing home. The focus here is on maintaining a high quality of life through personalized care programs, cognitive stimulation, socialization and a safe, peaceful environment.

Paying for a neighborhood that specializes in treating early-stage cognitive decline, like the Bridges neighborhood at Arbor Terrace Basking Ridge, involves several options, including long-term care insurance, veteran’s benefits, community and state programs and more.
