Bishop Taylor, a UMC Community

Bishop Taylor, a UMC Community, offers housing and care for older adults in a calm, supportive setting. The community's named after Prince A. Taylor, Jr., who was the first resident Bishop of the New Jersey area. Backed by Calvary-Roseville United Methodist Church, Christ Episcopal Church, the United Methodist Communities, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, this place aims to serve seniors with low to moderate incomes. Bishop Taylor has 76 apartments, including one-bedroom and studio options, for seniors aged 62 and older. Residents can choose independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, or memory care through the Tapestries-Memory Care Program, depending on their needs. Home care is available through HomeWorks, and long-term support or short-term help like respite care can be arranged. The facility provides care for people who need help with meals, daily activities, medication, and personal care. Housekeeping and congregate meal programs help keep life simple, while rehabilitation and adult day services bring more support for those who require extra care. There are outdoor patios, social activities, cable television hookups, and 24/7 security to help residents feel safe and engaged. Hospice care and Medicare-certified home health care serve those with greater medical needs. The Housing Administrator, Tanya Sweet Preston, helps oversee the day-to-day care. Bishop Taylor's aim is to give seniors a safe home and a sense of community, offering services and simple comforts while making sure everyone's looked after.
