Home care in Fort Lee, in plain words

A licensed aide comes to your parent's home in Fort Lee for a few hours a day, overnight, or as a live-in, to help with bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders, errands and company.

Many Fort Lee parents live in high-rise co-ops and condos along the Palisades. That means doorman lists, building rules for staff and elevators, and short walks to shops on Main Street and Lemoine Avenue. Live-in care in a co-op often needs the board's rules checked first.

After a hospital stay

Nearby hospitals: Englewood Health and Hackensack University Medical Center, with Holy Name close by. Ask the discharge planner what help is needed at home, then call us with the date. See home care after a hospital stay, and private nurse visits if there is wound care or new medications.

Language, culture and food

Korean and Japanese speaking aides are common requests in Fort Lee, along with Spanish, Russian and Mandarin.

Hourly or live-in

Most families start with a few days a week. When evenings and nights get hard, live-in care is the next step. For costs, see home care cost in NJ vs NY. Many parents also hold a policy that helps, see long term care insurance for home care.
