Generations Plus

7905 Browning Road, Suite 220-222, Pennsauken, NJ 08109
Overview of Generations Plus

Pennsauken, New Jersey’s Generations Plus runs as an adult day health care program under Wellsprings For Seniors, LLC, with Moshe Culang serving as administrator. The Browning Road location sits in a somewhat walkable stretch of town (Walk Score 37), so a handful of errands are doable on foot, though most still mean getting in the car.

Skilled nursing staff and a licensed dietitian are part of the program, and staffing is available around the clock. For participants managing an ongoing condition or recovering from something recent, on-site rehabilitation services mean therapy doesn’t require a separate trip somewhere else.

The day itself has structure: recreational and social activities, three meals, transportation to and from the facility. That last piece often matters most for families where driving is no longer an option. Housekeeping and laundry round out the practical side of things, and caregiver support gives family members a resource of their own.

Generations Plus accepts Medicaid, widening the coverage picture for families comparing costs. On the regulatory side, inspection findings have touched on environmental and hazardous-materials safety, care planning and documentation, and resident rights and protections.

The combination, medical oversight, transportation, and structured daily programming, points to a facility built for older adults who still live at home but need consistent daytime support and supervision.

Overview of The Residence at Cherry Hill

The Residence at Cherry Hill is an assisted living, memory care, and respite care community at 1979 Route 70 East in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. The neighborhood is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 3, so most errands and outings require driving rather than walking.

The community has 132 beds and is currently operating at 80% occupancy, with 105 beds filled. Residents have access to rehabilitation services, nursing services, and 24-hour staffing, along with respite care for families who need a temporary stay option rather than a permanent move.

Amenities include a salon, library, walking paths, a patio, a theater, and a dedicated entertainment space, alongside gourmet dining. Assisted living studios start at $4,500 per month, while memory care studios, which typically involve a higher level of staffing and support, start at $6,995 per month.

State inspections of the community are conducted by the New Jersey Department of Health’s Health Facilities Evaluation and Licensing division. Inspection themes at this community have centered on medication management, infection prevention and control, and care planning and documentation. These are the areas regulators have focused on when evaluating the facility’s day-to-day operations.

Families weighing a move here can expect a mid-sized community with dedicated memory care and respite options, set in a suburban, car-oriented part of Cherry Hill, with pricing that varies meaningfully depending on the level of care needed.

Current occupancy sits at 69%, with 66 of the 95 beds filled. The facility runs private pay only; Medicaid and Medicare are not accepted.

The care lineup is broader than most assisted living communities of this size. Rehabilitation, respite care, hospice care, and nursing services are all on-site, alongside a doctor on staff and 24-hour staffing. A 24-hour emergency alert and response system is in place, and the community is pet-friendly.

On the amenity side, residents have access to a 24/7 bistro, general store, wellness center, garden and courtyard, library, chapel, billiard room, movie theater, beauty salon and barber services, and a courtesy van for transportation. Dining runs restaurant-style, with a private room and in-room options alongside the main dining area. Group programming spans games, exercise classes, happy hours, and cultural, educational, religious, and social activities.

The Walk Score of 36 puts the neighborhood in somewhat walkable territory, where a few destinations are reachable on foot but most outings will need a vehicle.
