Live-In Home Care Agency in New Jersey

Choosing the right home care agency is one of the most important decisions a family makes. At 24 HOUR Home Care NJ, we’re a licensed, insured, NJ-based agency specializing in live-in home care and 24-hour caregiver services. We’re not a registry or referral service — every caregiver is our employee, fully vetted, and backed by our clinical team.

When you hire through an agency (vs. hiring privately), you get:

• Liability coverage — We carry workers’ compensation and general liability insurance
• Backup caregivers — If your aide is sick, we send a qualified replacement immediately
• RN supervision — A registered nurse oversees every care plan and conducts regular home visits
• Payroll and compliance — We handle W-2 employment, taxes, overtime, and NJ labor law compliance
• Quality assurance — Ongoing training, performance reviews, and client satisfaction monitoring

According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, our flat $40/hour rate covers all service levels — companion care, personal care, dementia care, and 24-hour care — with no surcharges for evenings, weekends, or holidays.

How to Choose a Home Care Agency in NJ

If you’re comparing agencies, here’s what the NJ Department of Health recommends asking:

1. Are your caregivers employees or independent contractors?
2. Do you carry workers’ compensation and liability insurance?
3. Who supervises caregivers — is there an RN involved?
4. What happens when a caregiver calls out sick?
5. How do you screen and train your aides?
6. Can you provide references from current clients?

At 24 HOUR Home Care NJ, the answers are clear: W-2 employees, full insurance, RN supervision, backup coverage, comprehensive screening, and happy families across New Jersey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 24 HOUR Home Care NJ a home care agency?

Yes. We are a fully licensed, insured home care agency operating in compliance with NJ Department of Health and Board of Nursing regulations.

Why hire through an agency vs. hiring a caregiver directly?

An agency provides liability insurance, workers’ compensation, backup caregivers, RN supervision, payroll compliance, and quality assurance. Hiring directly puts legal and financial risk on the family.

Do you have a minimum number of hours?

We’re flexible and work with families to find a schedule that fits. Call (908) 912-6342 to discuss your specific needs.

How are your caregivers screened?

Every caregiver undergoes criminal background checks, sex offender registry checks, OIG exclusion list verification, reference verification, CHHA license confirmation, and a skills assessment.

Can I meet the caregiver before they start?

Yes. We encourage a meet-and-greet before care begins so your family feels comfortable and confident.
