The Center’s Elizabeth residence has 25 single-occupancy suites spread over two floors (the second floor is accessible via stairs or an elevator).  Suites are tastefully furnished, most with a private bath.  Each suite has a flat screen tv with cable and free wi-fi.  Additionally, each room is scheduled to get its own private heating and cooling system, allowing patients, families and our medical personnel to adjust the room’s temperature to suit the individual patient’s needs.  Also, in the current time of uncertainty, the Center is installing connected iPads in each suite to assist with video-visitation and our new digital food-ordering system.

Whatever your taste, patients of the Center for Hope enjoy restaurant-quality food throughout their stay.  From a robust ‘all-day’ menu (available throughout the day, 7 days a week) to a variety of daily specials, patients are presented with food options acceptable to even the most discerning of palates.  Additionally, patients and families are encouraged to speak with our kitchen staff about options NOT on our daily menus.  New this year, the Center will be introducing a digital ordering system.  Patients, on their in-suite iPads, will be able to order their meals from the comfort of their own suites.  Families will also be able to order items for their loved ones remotely, from an internet connected device.  Patients can enjoy means here, in our comfortable dining room, or in their individual suites.

Just off of the main hall lies a large and inviting living room.  The room has a variety of uses, from movie nights, to games, to volunteer activities and guest performances.  A large television plays movies and programs throughout the day, however, many patients choose to visit the room to sit and socialize with their fellow residents.

A favorite among our guests, patients and families frequently enjoy our sun-rooms.  Adorned with windows, patients can sit and look out at our peaceful and serene backyard and fountain or the variety of ‘visitors’ that come to partake in lone of our many bird-feeders!  It’s a lovely place for families to visit with their loved ones.  In the 2nd floor sun room, guests can enjoy an always-fresh cup of coffee, soda or juice.

Outside of the chapel, patients and families can sit with a good book in one of the comfortable library chairs.  Additionally, the space is used for volunteer activities, putting together puzzles or socializing on days our beautician is on!

In a time of limited visitation, our backyard has become crucial for visiting a loved one.  In addition to tents and seating spaces for families to see their loved ones, the back yard is a relaxing and safe space to enjoy our memorial fountain or comfortable patio.
