Well-Being Philosophy
Holistic Care, The Artis Way
“I taught two generations how to garden … and I still have a green thumb.”
– Diane C
Artis Resident
Our evidence-based, holistic well-being framework includes an optimal combination of a supportive environment, discreet care, social connection, and cognitive health.
Environment
Our intentionally designed communities promote safety and independence with adaptive, accessible design, décor that creates a sense of familiarity, and secure outdoor spaces that encourage exploration.
Care
We provide support with medication reminders and activities of daily living, along with better nutrition and exercise programs to enhance overall well-being.
Connection
We offer daily, well-rounded opportunities for participation and social engagement with neighbors, associates, friends, and family – and monthly outings – fostering a sense of autonomy, belonging, and purpose.
Cognitive Support
We engage residents in specialized programs and therapies designed to stimulate cognitive function and promote emotional well-being, including music and art therapy, memory-enhancing exercises and games, reminiscence therapy, and sensory stimulation exercises.
Memory Care
Memory Care at Artis is designed to help people living with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia feel empowered in their care and in their day-to-day lives. A licensed nurse is on site 24/7, and associates are specially trained in dementia care.

are saying
The staff goes above and beyond to create a warm and supportive environment.
The facilities are clean, well-maintained, and designed with the residents’ comfort in mind. The activities offered are diverse, keeping everyone engaged and stimulated. The caregivers are not just professionals; they genuinely care about the well-being of the residents.
The communication from the staff is excellent. It’s evident that they prioritize the residents’ dignity and individual needs.
After nearly 2 years, I can say that has proved true.
I would write the same thing, now
(I AM writing the same thing, now!).
Much of the original staff has moved on, but their replacements are as good, or better. The care partners are wonderful. I owe them an enormous debt for their continuing kind treatment of my wife (and ME). It’s a difficult job they do with great patience and compassion. Certainly, some come to my mind quickly, but for fear of leaving out any, I will not name names – ALL of the care partners deserve a mention for their dedication.
Everyone else on the team is just as good.
If I need answers, I get them.
If there is something to address, they listen.
My relationship with everyone is friendly and open.
My wife, though much debilitated as this condition runs to its inevitable conclusion, remains happy. She feels safe and cared for, and her beaming smile tells me she likes the way she is treated.
That’s as much as I can ask for, and I thank the Artis of Princeton staff for all they have done to make that so.
1st review:
While it has only been a bit over 2 weeks, I feel absolutely certain that I made the right decision in opting for Artis – Princeton Junction as the locus of my wife’s care. I am equally sure that more time will only secure that certainty. The staff, from top to bottom, is golden – kind, compassionate, informative, and on the mark. Janice’s entry, no small event for husband and wife, was facilitated smoothly. Artis worked with me on a plan, and it went without a hitch.
My wife feels cared for and attended to, and she feels safe – exactly what one hopes for when the need for such a move arrives.
This place is especially inclusive to all cultures races and backgrounds.
When we joined in May, my mother-in-law was apprehensive to change. In 6 months she’s settled in and enjoys the routine. She’s always been a schedule oriented person as a retired teacher, so the amount of indoor and outdoor activity is crucial.
Local to Princeton University, we travel a short distance by car. I take her to walk the campus which is free to the public. Parking is free on weekends as well.
Depending on the level of care your loved ones need, Artis always has a plan and the dedicated team it takes to act out the plan. Things change, so does the team, but the mission stays strong.
Of all the places we looked at, Artis of Princeton Junction was by far the most diverse with many loving caring residents and care takers alike.
Take a tour and read the literature. Take part in a wonderful place for your family to spend their golden years, no matter their level of need.
