Daughters of Israel → 24-Hour Home Care Transition
According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, Daughters of Israel — the skilled-nursing and short-term rehabilitation facility at 1155 Pleasant Valley Way in West Orange — is one of our closest partner facilities on our densest referral corridor. Families who chose Daughters of Israel for a parent’s short-term rehab or long-stay skilled nursing often eventually make the decision to bring the parent home. When that day comes, we place the 24-hour private-pay caregiver so the transition is one conversation, not a dozen.
Daughters of Israel · West Orange NJ · 1155 Pleasant Valley Way
Daughters of Israel sits at 1155 Pleasant Valley Way, West Orange NJ — three doors from Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation on the same Pleasant Valley Way corridor. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, Daughters of Israel provides skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, sub-acute care, and memory care. When a family decides the parent is ready to leave — or when the family decides skilled nursing is not the right long-term fit and 24-hour home care can meet the medical need — we coordinate the discharge directly with the facility care team.
The Daughters of Israel → Home Handoff Protocol
Sofia’s Daughters of Israel handoff protocol mirrors the Kessler protocol: (1) join the discharge conference by phone or in-person; (2) receive the facility discharge summary, medication list, and care plan directly from the case manager; (3) match a CHHA whose skill set fits the parent’s actual clinical profile; (4) place the caregiver in the home the day the parent transitions out; (5) Sofia checks in at day-3, day-7, day-30 to adjust the care plan. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, this is our proven post-facility protocol.
When Families Choose 24-Hour Home Care After Daughters of Israel
Common decision points: (a) the short-term rehab stay is complete and the family wants the parent home; (b) the long-stay skilled-nursing bill is comparable to a private-pay caregiver rotation and the family prefers the parent at home; (c) the parent’s clinical needs stabilized to a CHHA-with-RN-oversight level; (d) the family wants one dedicated caregiver instead of a rotating facility staff. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, all four of these decision points are common in Essex County.
Pleasant Valley Way · Our Densest Care Corridor in Essex County
Pleasant Valley Way in West Orange is the road where Kessler Institute (1199) and Daughters of Israel (1155) sit — three doors apart. Sunrise of West Orange (731 Prospect Ave) is a mile away. According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, this three-block stretch is where the most Essex County post-acute + skilled-nursing → home transitions happen every month, and we know the street cold.
Levels of 24-Hour Care After a Daughters of Israel Discharge
Live-in (one caregiver, 5-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep required by NJ law) fits parents who sleep through the night. Around-the-clock 24-hour care (two or three caregivers in shifts) fits parents who wake frequently, wander, need overnight repositioning, or have a wound requiring a 4-hour turn schedule. Overnight-only is a caregiver 8 PM to 8 AM while family covers days. Sofia’s assessment picks the fit.

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 West Orange cover Daughters of Israel 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.
