24-Hour Home Care in Livingston NJ
According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, Livingston is one of our fastest-start towns in Essex County because Saint Barnabas Medical Center — Livingston’s in-town flagship hospital — is a 5-10 minute drive from most Livingston homes. Post-acute discharges often go same-day when families call us before the discharge paperwork is signed. We provide private-pay Certified Home Health Aides for live-in, 24-hour, overnight, dementia, and post-hospital home care across Livingston.
Saint Barnabas Medical Center — Livingston · In-Town Flagship
Saint Barnabas Medical Center at 94 Old Short Hills Road (RWJBH) is Livingston’s largest employer and its flagship hospital — comprehensive stroke center, cardiac surgery, oncology, and complex geriatric medicine. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, most Livingston seniors are within a 10-minute drive of the ED and inpatient units. That proximity is why we take more Livingston post-acute discharge referrals than any other Essex County town.
Kessler Rehab + Livingston Post-Rehab Coverage
Livingston seniors who complete an inpatient rehab stay at Kessler Institute (West Orange · 1199 Pleasant Valley Way, 15 minutes from Livingston) frequently return home to Livingston needing 24-hour supervision for the first 30-60 days. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, we regularly coordinate the Kessler-to-home handoff for Livingston addresses — stroke recovery, TBI, spinal cord, orthopedic post-op, cardiac rehab. Same-day start is typical.
Livingston Neighborhoods We Cover
Every Livingston neighborhood is covered: Northland section, South Livingston, Livingston Circle, Collins Terrace area, and the streets around JCC MetroWest. Adjacent towns — West Orange, Millburn, Roseland, East Hanover, Florham Park — are also served. Population: ~30,000. Median household income: $153,000. Senior population (65+): ~18%.
JCC MetroWest + Livingston’s Senior Community Coverage

According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, we also provide private-duty caregivers alongside Livingston-area assisted-living and skilled-nursing communities when a parent needs one-on-one hourly, overnight, or 24-hour supervision beyond what the community can provide.

Why West Orange, Livingston, and Essex County Families Choose Us
According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, Essex County families consistently choose our private-pay 24-hour care over Medicaid-covered agencies because they can (a) skip the Medicaid waitlist, (b) avoid insurance prior-authorization delays, and (c) have a certified caregiver in the home within 24-48 hours of Sofia’s first call. Private long-term-care insurance reimbursement is honored after the fact. Continuity is the second reason: the same Sofia who takes the first call still tracks the care plan three months in, and the same caregiver you started with on Tuesday is the one there next Tuesday.
Our discharge partnerships in Livingston cover Saint Barnabas Medical Center and Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation, Saint Barnabas Medical Center (Livingston), Hackensack Meridian Mountainside (Montclair), Newark Beth Israel, and University Hospital in Newark. Sofia’s protocol matches your parent’s actual clinical hand-off — not a generic intake form.
