A resident at the Brighton Gardens assisted living facility in Florham Park has tested positive for the coronavirus, the center confirmed Thursday.

The facility is not releasing the age of the patient or whether he or she had any pre-existing medical conditions.

“Our team is working to maintain normalcy for our residents and families despite this situation. We want to thank our residents, families and team members for their understanding, cooperation and words of support in recent days," Denise Falco, Regional Vice President of Operations for Sunrise Senior Living said in a statement.

Before the patient tested positive, the facility had already prohibited visitors, canceled community-wide activities and moved all residents to their suites, Falco said. Each resident is undergoing daily temperature checks and respiratory assessments, Falco said.

Located on Ridgedale Avenue, the facility offers assisted living, short-term stays, coordination of hospice care, memory care for seniors with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia and those with early to moderate memory loss, according to its website.

As of Thursday, at least 742 people across the state had tested positive for coronavirus, and nine people had died.
