SUDDEN CLOSURE OF PRINCETON NURSING HOME HAS FAMILIES DEMANDING INVESTIGATION

When the Princeton Care Center closed without warning, an immense amount of stress and uncertainty were endured by patients, families, and staff.

“Princeton Care Center closed permanently Friday and gave the families of residents less than 12 hours to find a new skilled nursing facility just before the long holiday weekend. Some families learned of the closure through a social worker that morning, while others received phone calls from distressed patients living at the facility.”

Back in August, a corrective action plan was issued and staff members were hopeful that the facility would turn around for the better, but many were surprised when a permanent closure followed. Now, family members are asking important questions and demanding a detailed investigation be completed to provide answers.
