Visiting Health and Supportive Services is a United Way member agency caring for chronically ill patients, sick children, and the homebound elderly in the comfort of their own home.

Certified Home Health Aides are specially trained, and certified by the New Jersey Board of Nursing. They can help you with personal care, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. They also will work with you to reinforce any physical, speech and occupational therapy regimens prescribed for you.

NeighborCARE provides safety and supervision for adults who cannot remain at home alone. Full time family Caregivers are able to address personal, legal or business obligations without worrying about the safety and security of their homebound relative.

The Statewide Respite Care Program is a New-Jersey-funded program which provides limited assistance to families for their respite needs. The Program can pay for short-term nursing home placement, adult day care service, certified home health aides or companion care to qualifying families. Income guidelines define eligibility.

In-Home Caregiver Training provides the hands-on skills that allow family caregivers to feel more confident in maintaining a family member or friend. A Registered Nurse assesses the needs of the individual, then develops a plan which addresses their special situation.
