How We Work — Our Care Process

Getting started with home care is a straightforward process built around your family’s comfort and your loved one’s needs. There is no commitment required to take the first step.

  1. Free In-Home Care Consultation: We visit your loved one’s home in Imlaystown for a no-obligation consultation. We learn about your situation, answer every question, discuss care options, and help you understand what home care would look like for your family. This step happens before any commitment is made.
  2. RN Clinical Assessment: Once you decide to move forward, one of our registered nurses (RN) conducts a comprehensive clinical assessment in your loved one’s home. This assessment drives the care plan and ensures every health and safety need is identified before care begins.
  3. Personalized Cared-4 Care Plan: Using the RN assessment findings, we build your loved one’s Cared-4 Care Plan — our proprietary care planning framework — and match a caregiver based on care needs, personality, schedule, and household dynamics.
  4. Care Begins: Your caregiver is introduced, the care plan is reviewed together, and service begins. We continue to monitor care quality through ongoing supervisory visits and remain available to adjust the plan as needs change.

Our Home Care Services in Imlaystown

Personal Care

Our Imlaystown caregivers assist with the activities of daily living that have become difficult or unsafe to manage alone: bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, mobility support, and skin care. Personal care is delivered with dignity and respect, always.

Companionship and Active Connections

Isolation is one of the most significant health risks facing seniors today. Our caregivers provide genuine companionship — conversation, shared activities, walks, games, errands, and transportation to appointments — keeping your loved one engaged and connected to the Imlaystown community they have always called home.

Live-In Care and 24-Hour Care

For Imlaystown families whose loved ones need continuous support, we offer both live-in care and 24-hour rotating shift care. A live-in caregiver resides in the home and is available around the clock, making it possible for clients with significant care needs to remain at home rather than transitioning to a facility. Each placement begins with a thorough RN assessment to ensure the right caregiver-client match.

Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care

All of our caregivers receive annual training that includes Alzheimer’s and dementia care, and many hold additional specialized certifications through programs including the Alzheimer’s Association. For Mercer County families navigating a dementia diagnosis, we provide structured, compassionate care that reduces anxiety, supports safe routines, and gives family caregivers meaningful relief.

Medicare GUIDE Program

Home Helpers of Freehold participates in the Medicare GUIDE Program — a Medicare-funded initiative specifically designed to support individuals living with dementia and their family caregivers. Through the GUIDE Program, eligible clients and caregivers can access additional care coordination, respite support, and resources that go beyond what standard home care provides. Ask us whether your loved one qualifies during your free In-Home Care Consultation.

Veterans Care — VA Community Care Network Authorized Provider

Home Helpers of Freehold is a VA Community Care Network authorized provider, meaning eligible veterans and their surviving spouses may be able to access in-home care services through their VA benefits at little or no out-of-pocket cost. We work directly with families to navigate the VA authorization process and connect veterans in Imlaystown and Mercer County with the care they have earned. Our owner’s active involvement with county offices serving older adults and veterans reflects the agency’s deep commitment to the veteran community across our four-county service area.

Transitional Care — Coming Home from Hospital, Sub-Acute, or Acute Rehab

When a loved one is discharged from an acute care hospital, sub-acute rehabilitation facility, or skilled nursing facility — including RWJBarnabas University Hospital Hamilton, CentraState Medical Center in Freehold, and Allaire Rehabilitation and Nursing in Freehold — the transition home is one of the most critical and vulnerable periods in a patient’s recovery. Our transitional care services are designed specifically for this moment: caregivers are in place on the first day home, following physician-directed care plans, assisting with medication reminders, mobility support, and activities of daily living to reduce the risk of readmission and support a safe, confident recovery at home.

Respite Care for Family Caregivers

Caring for a loved one is meaningful work, but it is also relentless. Our respite care services give Imlaystown family caregivers a scheduled, reliable break — whether for a few hours, a full day, or an extended trip. Your loved one receives the same attentive care; you get the time you need to recharge.

Homemaker Services

Light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, and grocery shopping — our homemaker services handle the household tasks that keep a home safe and functioning. Caregivers engage warmly with clients during these routines, turning daily chores into moments of genuine connection.

Wellness Calls and 24-Hour Remote Monitoring

For families who want an added layer of oversight, we offer scheduled wellness check calls and remote 24-hour monitoring through Aloe Care technology, including vital signs monitoring. This allows caregivers and family members to track health trends over time and respond quickly if something changes — providing peace of mind whether you live nearby or across the country.

End-of-Life and Hospice Support Care

During one of life’s most difficult transitions, our caregivers provide compassionate end-of-life support, working alongside hospice teams to ensure your loved one is comfortable, cared for, and treated with dignity. We support both the client and the entire family through this time.
