Home care in Montclair, in plain words

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

Montclair has older houses on hills, with steep stairs and front steps that get harder every winter. Many adult children live nearby or commute to the city, so families often want an aide on weekday hours and handle weekends themselves.

After a hospital stay

Nearby hospitals: Mountainside Medical Center in Montclair, with Cooperman Barnabas and Clara Maass nearby. 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

Families ask for aides who speak Spanish, Portuguese and Haitian Creole.

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.
