The Actors Fund Home (155-175 West Hudson Avenue, Englewood, New Jersey), an acclaimed assisted living and skilled nursing care facility for the performing arts and entertainment community, celebrated the opening of The Shubert Pavilion at their facility in Englewood on Fri Oct 6. The event marked the mid-point of a capital campaign to rebuild, expand and preserve  The Actors Fund Home, which will ultimately add an additional 45 beds to the residence. Now open for residents, the new three-story Shubert Pavilion was made possible by a lead gift from The Shubert Organization, with major additional support from The Walt Disney Company and The Mackintosh Foundation. The facility houses a 25 bed sub-acute center for people who are recovering from illness or surgery and 14 assisted living beds. The facility also includes a rehabilitation center with a fully equipped gym for physical, occupational and speech therapies. To prepare residents for a safe return to their private homes, the rehabilitation center is outfitted with a full kitchen, bathroom and laundry facilities, as well as accessible gardens for residents. The entire project is expected to be completed at the end of 2018 and will add 25,000 square feet of new space that includes additional new bedrooms, resident amenities and infrastructure. The final project will also incorporate the renovation of over 30,000 square feet of existing resident space including reconstructed bedrooms and resident amenity space. In addition, a new two story building will house a 20 bed memory care unit and 7 assisted living beds as well as a new medical suite, an arts studio, a dining room, a bistro and a Memory Care Garden.
