It is a pleasure to introduce you to Garden Terrace Nursing Home. Choosing the right facility for your family member is not always an easy task. We hope to offer all of the services and programs that will

make your personal decision the right one.

Garden Terrace Nursing Home has been family owned and operated since 1964. Peter, Phyllis, Laura and Peter, Jr. carry on the tradition of excellence by living the following philosophy:

° Celebrating life in a compassionate and dignified manner;

° Providing a home-like setting that invites warmth, caring and security in a safe therapeutic environment;

° Promoting support, encouragement and education for family and friends as they face roles as caregivers.

After consultation with the family and physician, individualized care plans are established to ensure that each resident's well-being and self-respect are maintained. Communication among the residents, family, staff and physician is continued throughout a resident's stay, as we believe communication is the key to quality care and services.

We believe that Garden Terrace is a community within a community and feel very strongly about maintaining a sense of community for our residents. We achieve this goal by providing many off-site visits to places within Chatham and surrounding areas, including shops, restaurants, theaters, and parks. We invite community members of all ages into our home. We have an adopt-a-grandparent program and other intergenerational programs to foster a sense of involvement and community participation. All of our therapeutic recreational activites are based on the individual needs and interests of each resident. Our monthly calendar incorporates social, physical, intellectual, psychological, and spiritual programs to provide stimulating and diversified activities.


Our Staff

Each member of our staff is personally selected and is chosen because he or she is outstanding in his or her respective line of work. We have a low staff-to-resident ratio to ensure that each resident receives the proper attention and care he or she deserves. Our staff is trained to be sensitive and professional to all residents. We ask that staff members care for each resident as if he or she is one's own family member. We pride ourselves in the longevity of our staff, as we feel this reflects the type of environment we have created and the type of person we employ.
