Frequently Asked Questions

What is 24-hour live-in care?

A dedicated, certified caregiver lives in your loved one’s home, providing personal care, meals, companionship, and safety monitoring throughout the day. The caregiver sleeps overnight but is available for nighttime needs.

How is live-in care different from 24-hour shift care?

Live-in care uses one caregiver who sleeps overnight. 24-hour shift care uses two or more caregivers in shifts — always awake. Live-in is more affordable; shift care provides continuous awake coverage.

Does the caregiver need their own room?

Yes. A private sleeping area is required for the live-in caregiver — a spare bedroom, den, or converted space.

How much does live-in care cost in NJ?

Live-in care is typically the most cost-effective full-day option. Call (908) 912-6342 for a personalized assessment and pricing.

Can live-in care work for dementia patients?

Yes — especially for early and mid-stage dementia where consistency and routine are beneficial. The deep bond between one caregiver and your loved one can be profoundly stabilizing.
