We are proud to offer specialized care to patients suffering from conditions that have advanced to the point where they are unsafe at home or have no one who can care for them appropriately. We are much more than a nursing home and offer skilled nursing services in a long-term care community, as well as short-term rehabilitation.
Residents can arrive at our facility with an extensive list of current medications. These prescriptions have often been written by several different providers. Pre-existing prescriptions benefit from a comprehensive review by our on-staff medical team to ensure that dosage times and delivery methods are carefully considered and optimized to improve both efficacy and patient quality of life.

Though IV therapy can, under certain conditions, be delivered to patients in a home setting, transitioning to skilled nursing care at Princeton Health Care Center offers a wider opportunity for the selection of this option, due to the presence of our highly-skilled, dedicated providers who administer this care in a supportive and caring environment.
Choosing to switch to intravenous care should be discussed with your loved one’s care provider. Princeton Health Care Center has a medical director with the experience and qualifications to advise on specifics regarding each case. While there is no universal solution for effective patient care and medication management, examining the potential benefits of converting some of your loved one’s current medication regime can lead to a litany of benefits that will improve safety, decrease adverse effects, and increase wellness and quality of life.
If you or your loved one could benefit from additional medical and companionship support, contact Princeton Health Care Center to discuss current and anticipated needs.
