Home care in Hackensack, in plain words

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

Hackensack is the county seat, with apartment buildings, garden complexes and older two-family homes. Many families call us right after a stay at Hackensack University Medical Center, when a parent needs help the first weeks home.

After a hospital stay

Nearby hospitals: Hackensack University Medical Center, one of the largest hospitals in the state. 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.
