Home care in The Hills, NJ

Home care for The Hills in Bedminster and Bernards townships, with caregivers who help in townhomes, condos and houses, from a few hours a week up to live-in care.

Townhome stairs and a helping hand

The Hills is a planned community on Schley Mountain that crosses from Bedminster into Bernards Township. Much of it is condos and townhomes, many with stairs between the kitchen and the bedrooms, and those stairs are often the first thing that gets difficult. A caregiver can help your loved one up and down safely and keep the household running.

Caregivers in The Hills help with bathing, dressing and meals, and they make outings easier, like a trip to the Hills Village Center for groceries or a short walk on the neighborhood paths. Each caregiver is chosen with your loved one in mind, and that caregiver is the one who keeps showing up.

After RWJ Somerset or Morristown

Residents usually come home from RWJ University Hospital Somerset in Somerville or from Morristown Medical Center. When that day comes, home care in The Hills can be ready, with a caregiver who settles your loved one in, reviews the discharge instructions with you and drives to follow-up visits.

A real person at our Somerset & Hunterdon office answers day and night, and our care team adjusts the plan as recovery moves along. Families pay us directly, only after care is provided, and we file long-term care insurance claims each week at no charge.

Neighbors, errands and help at home in The Hills

Life in a condo or townhome in The Hills is compact, which lets the help go further. Your caregiver can keep the place neat, wash and fold clothes, cook meals for the next few days and keep the refrigerator stocked, leaving more of the visit for conversation. With fewer rooms to manage, your loved one can save their energy for the things they enjoy.

Your caregiver can drive to appointments in Bedminster, Basking Ridge or Morristown, keep your parent company while the doctor runs late and pick up prescriptions before heading back. After a hospital stay, they can help your parent ease back into normal life, from the first walk around the neighborhood to the first lunch out with a friend.

Senior care in The Hills includes the social side. A weekly coffee with a neighbor, a religious service or a call to a grandchild at school out of state can all stay on the calendar with a caregiver's help. Our office sends regular updates, so a son or daughter who lives far away hears how the week went.

Frequently asked questions about home care

Click or tap a question to see the answer.

What's the difference between home care and home health care?

Home care, also called non medical home care, helps your loved one with everyday activities so they can stay safe and comfortable at home. A trained caregiver or home health aide assists with personal care like bathing, dressing, and toileting, along with daily tasks such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship.

Home health care is skilled medical care provided by a registered nurse (RN) or licensed practical nurse (LPN). It covers clinical tasks that require a nurse's oversight, such as IV therapy, wound care, and medication administration. Home health care is usually ordered by a doctor for a set period of time, often after a hospital stay.

Many families use both, with home care filling in the daily support between skilled nursing visits.

How quickly can care start?

In urgent situations, we can often start care the same day. For most families, care begins within one to two days. That gives us time to complete your free in home assessment, create a custom care plan for your loved one, and carefully match them with the right caregiver. We move quickly without cutting corners, because your loved one's safety and comfort always come first.

What happens during the free in home assessment?

During the free in home assessment, we take the time to get to know your loved one and your family, including their daily routines, preferences, and what matters most to them. We also complete a home safety assessment and share any recommendations to help prevent falls and make the home safer, at no charge. From there, we create a custom care plan and help you decide on the home care options and schedule that best fit your loved one's needs.

Will my loved one have the same caregiver each time?

We always do our best to keep the same caregiver with your loved one, and we note your preferences so every visit feels familiar and comfortable. Thanks to our low caregiver turnover and excellent training, most of our clients see the same friendly faces week after week. Of course, caregivers need time off and get sick sometimes too. When that happens, we let you know right away and send a wonderful, fully trained replacement who is already familiar with your loved one's care plan. That's the benefit of working with an agency. You're never left without help.

How much does home care cost?

The cost of in home care depends on several things, including where your loved one lives, how many hours of care they need, how often visits are scheduled, and the type of care required. Because every family's situation is different, the best way to get an accurate price is through our free in home assessment. There's no obligation, and we'll create a care plan that fits your loved one's needs and give you the best possible rate. You'll always have a clear, written estimate before care begins, with no surprises.

How do I reach someone after hours or on weekends?

We're available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends, and holidays. Just call our main office number and ask to speak with someone. A real person from our team will help you right away, whether it's a schedule change, a question, or an unexpected situation. We're always here for you.
