Sterling Manor Nursing Center

Sterling Manor Nursing Center in Maple Shade, NJ, offers private, shared, and studio rooms, all furnished and with private bathrooms and kitchenettes, and you get things like cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and telephone access, so most rooms feel pretty comfortable, and the dining room has all-day service with restaurant-style meals and can provide options for people with allergies, diabetes, or special diets, which is important for some folks. There's help with things like bathing, dressing, and medication, and residents get supervision around the clock, with nurses on site for 12 to 16 hours daily. The care team supports transfers, mobility, and most activities of daily living, and the building has an emergency alert system and a 24-hour call system in case someone needs immediate help. Sterling Manor has a skilled nursing facility for short-term or long-term stays and takes Medicaid and Medicare payments, and you'll find services for both physical and mental health, including dementia care and addiction recovery programs like methadone maintenance and Suboxone, along with group and individual therapy and mental health activities, so people with different needs can get care here. You'll also find housekeeping, laundry, move-in coordination, and concierge services included, and there are fitness programs, a fitness room, a movie theater, movie nights, arts and music programs, an art room, a library, a spa, a garden, and a game room, plus social spaces like the outdoor patio, transportation services, and parking, so there's usually something to do or somewhere to go if you want to. Sterling Manor can house up to 124 residents, but because the facility has had a Medicare cutoff, state investigations, and licensing troubles, with large fines over $330,000 and serious citations last year, all the residents have been relocated and there's a plan to close by January 31 unless something changes; the facility has had issues with finances and licensing, and the owners have been included in reports about profiteering. The facility also provides some home care services, has programs like My Adult Foster Care and My Senior Care Hub, and offers remote patient monitoring, care management, family engagement, electronic visit verification, and runs a food program for those living there. The staff have a lot of experience, especially with mental health and addiction care. Sterling Manor's main office hours are Monday to Saturday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., but it's closed on Sundays.
