Hackensack University Medical Center Post Acute

Hackensack University Medical Center Post Acute sits within the main medical center and gives short-term and long-term care for seniors and adults who need extra support after surgery, illness, or injury, with 102 certified beds out of 196 available, making for a large but comfortable senior living community that uses modern upgrades and medical equipment for safety and comfort, plus private rooms with video monitoring for those who require more supervision or security, and services like 12 to 16-hour nursing along with a 24-hour call system have everyone feeling secure while also offering personal help with things like bathing, dressing, and medication. The facility's design includes wide hallways, cozy bedrooms for privacy, quiet common areas, and gardens where residents and their visitors can relax, while indoors plenty of scheduled activities like movie nights, music programs, an arts room, game room, library, spa, sauna, and fitness center keep people busy or let them rest as they wish, and there are well-maintained walking paths for some light exercise in a calm setting. Hackensack University Medical Center Post Acute stands out for its clinical programs, with a multidisciplinary care team that makes tailored care plans based on a person's needs, such as for chronic conditions, wounds, heart problems, diabetes, lung conditions like COPD, and those needing orthopedic recovery or stroke care, offering both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, and for those with memory conditions it has a Memory Care program plus the Memory Loss & Brain Health center that provides not only medical help but also caregiver counseling and support. The facility also offers special elder patient care like the Acute Care of Elders Program, Fast Track Hip Fracture Program for quicker recovery, Hospital Elder Life Program for preventing falls and confusion, and the Geriatric Emergency and Trauma Care Center for helping manage urgent medical situations with both expert and senior-friendly staff right on site. Families will find a variety of care options all in one place, including assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing, hospice and palliative care, home care, respite care, and adult day care, and those needing continuing support have access to a full continuum that covers all stages of aging, whether someone needs long-term care or just help getting back on their feet. The community connects seniors and families to more resources like legal support and geriatric care management, and people who like to get out sometimes will find places like Walgreens and local churches nearby, all part of being nestled in a welcoming area of Hackensack. As part of Hackensack Meridian Health, this facility is recognized for both its medical expertise and efforts to make people feel at home during difficult times, and recent renovations have improved the look and comfort so everyone can focus on getting better surrounded by trained professionals, safety, and a strong sense of connection.
