Well I don’t know how they at Princeton home can even hold onto their license. I bought my husband a TV and I’ve had to replace the remote control three different times. I have security engrave his room number and his name on the remote control and still it was stolen. His clothes were stolen that I’ve taken him brand new socks, brand, new pajamas, pants It’s just incredible.

Zero star. Place is a CNA Revolving door. Most don't care about the residents. Items go missing, laundry gets lost all the time. Place stinks, carpet floor stained and dirty all the time. TV don't work. No entertainment for the elders. Food is okay. Activities is bare minimum. Parking is never avaliable, employees park up front. Can't do a quick visit. Lots of items in disrepair. Toilet leaked water for months before it got fixed. Certian residents got preferences over others. It's getting worst. I'm looking for a new place for my elder. Deserves better. This place just in it for the money. Zero star.

One star only because no stars is not an option. There are literally about 8 people total that are good hearted people on staff who genuinely care, the rest are there for a paycheck. If you just need a place to dump off an elderly person whom you could care less how they are treated this is your place. Which is the case for most of the residents there, to think we were there 2 times a day and our loved one was usually still full of crap between his legs and his balls. So many examples of poor care, not enough good to mention the good. This place is a hell hole, sad and pattetic. Place needs to close to fix all the repairs it needs. New management isn't any better than the old. Using the same dirty gloves just used to wipe feces
