Overview of The Residence at Cherry Hill

The license at The Residence at Cherry Hill in Cherry Hill, NJ, accounts for respite care, memory care, and assisted living. Supervision within a secured area is what memory care is for somebody liable to wander. Bathing, dressing, and medication come under assisted living, and a private living space stays with the resident.

Respite covers the short stay while a usual caregiver is travelling or recovering. Across the three levels, this answers either a family after temporary support or a resident whose needs will shift.

There are 132 beds here. An assisted living studio starts at $4,500 a month, and a memory care studio starts at $6,995, which gives a family a figure for each.

Dining is on the amenity list, and so are a Salon, a Patio, Walking Paths, a Movie Theater, and an Entertainment Space. Mr. James Ryan administers the community, and Cherry Hill Opco, LLC operates it.

Masonic Village at Burlington

902 Jacksonville Rd, Burlington, NJ 08016
Overview of Masonic Village at Burlington

Masonic Village at Burlington is a 264-bed nursing home on Jacksonville Road in Burlington, New Jersey. It’s a large facility by any measure, and it sits in a moderately walkable pocket of the city (Walk Score 68), where residents’ families can knock out some errands on foot without needing a car for everything.

The staffing numbers here are notable: 5 hours and 32 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, with registered nurses contributing about an hour of that and LPNs adding another 1 hour 19 minutes. Rehabilitation services and respite care are both available on-site, alongside a doctor on staff and around-the-clock staffing. Short-term and long-term stays are both options, as is home care.

Right now, the building is running at 43% occupancy, with 113 of its 264 beds filled. That’s a lot of unused capacity for a facility this size.

Coverage-wise, Masonic Village accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay, which opens the door for families regardless of how they’re planning to pay. Between the rehab and respite offerings and the staffing hours reported, this is a facility built to handle both short-term recovery after a hospital stay and longer-term nursing care, in a building with considerable room to grow into.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in New Jersey

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in New Jersey?

Assisted living in New Jersey supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

Does New Jersey Medicaid cover memory care?

New Jersey Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, but most states (including New Jersey) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 362 memory care communities in New Jersey. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in New Jersey?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in New Jersey, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting memory care communities in New Jersey?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
