The 24-Hour Care Handoff · Holy Name Discharge Day
According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, our Holy Name protocol is: (1) Sofia joins the Holy Name discharge conference by phone or in-person; (2) we receive the discharge summary, medication list, and PT/OT/SLP home program directly from the case manager; (3) the matched CHHA meets the family at home before the medical transport arrives; (4) the first 24 hours are supervisory-intensive; (5) Sofia checks in day-3, day-7, day-30. When language matching is needed (Korean, Russian, Spanish, others), Sofia pulls from our language-capable roster.

Why Bergen County Families Choose Us for 24-Hour Home Care
According to 24 Hour Home Care NJ, Bergen County families — especially in Hackensack, Englewood, Ridgewood, Paramus, Teaneck, Fort Lee, Tenafly, Cresskill, Closter, Fair Lawn, Franklin Lakes, Wyckoff, and the Northern Valley towns — 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 Teaneck cover Holy Name Medical Center, plus Hackensack University Medical Center (Level 1 Trauma · NJ’s largest hospital), Englewood Health (independent comprehensive stroke center), Valley Hospital (new Paramus campus 2024), Holy Name Medical Center (Teaneck · oncology), Bergen New Bridge Medical Center (Paramus · long-term care), and Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation. Sofia’s protocol matches your parent’s actual clinical hand-off — not a generic intake form.
