Atlas Healthcare at Daughters of Miriam

Atlas Healthcare at Daughters of Miriam, located at 155 Hazel Street in Clifton, New Jersey, carries forward a legacy of values-centered elder care that has long been a cornerstone of the Passaic County community. Now operating under the Atlas Healthcare management organization, this skilled nursing facility combines the warmth of its founding mission with the clinical standards and operational expertise of a professional management company committed to superior resident outcomes. Residents receive comprehensive skilled nursing services including 24-hour licensed nursing coverage, short- and long-term care, physical and occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, wound care, medication management, and support for residents living with dementia or Alzheimer's disease. The skilled nursing team works collaboratively with attending physicians, therapists, and social workers to develop individualized care plans that address each resident's medical, emotional, and social needs. Clifton is one of Passaic County's largest cities, offering residents and their visiting families an abundance of accessible amenities. The sprawling Garret Mountain Reservation — one of New Jersey's most beloved county parks — is just minutes from the facility, offering walking trails, picnic areas, and sweeping views of the New York City skyline that provide a scenic backdrop for family outings. Clifton Commons and the shopping and dining corridors along Main Avenue and Route 46 ensure that families can easily find restaurants, pharmacies, and everyday conveniences close to their loved ones. For medical support, the facility benefits from its proximity to St. Joseph's University Medical Center in neighboring Paterson — a major regional hospital and Level II Trauma Center with a full range of specialty services. Hackensack University Medical Center and Valley Hospital in Ridgewood are also within reasonable reach, giving residents and families access to some of New Jersey's top-ranked acute care institutions. Atlas Healthcare's management philosophy emphasizes person-centered care, regulatory compliance, and transparent communication with families. At Daughters of Miriam, these values align naturally with the community's historic commitment to treating every resident with respect and compassion.
