Princeton retirement home undergoes renovations

Greenfield Retirement Home in Princeton recently underwent renovations to its sheltered care wing.

Board Trustee Tracy Grimmer and Administrator Lynn Olds worked with a healthcare design team to select furniture, flooring, and window treatments. Their choices considered the safety and well-being of residents, while also aiming for a soothing, home-like atmosphere.

Sue Stutzke volunteered to complete the décor, selecting pictures, knickknacks and clocks to add personality and charm. Her efforts were made possible through the Adeline E. Prouty trust, which funded all materials.

The common areas now feature healthcare-grade furniture designed for durability, moisture resistance and easy sanitation and an innovative carpet made from recycled plastic bottles. The eco-friendly material combats allergens and infections, and also reduces noise and provides high traction for safety.

Greenfield also added a history wall that begins with the story of Adeline E. Prouty’s life through Greenfield in the present day. Greenfield is owned and operated by the Adeline E. Prouty Trust which has been providing services at 508 Park Ave. East in Princeton since 1911.
