About West Orange, Essex County

Why West Orange Families Choose 24 HOUR Home Care NJ

West Orange is one of Essex County’s most desirable suburban communities — a place where families build lifelong roots in spacious homes along tree-lined streets near South Mountain Reservation and Eagle Rock.

Saint Barnabas Medical Center, just minutes away in Livingston, provides world-class acute care, while Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation — one of the nation’s premier rehab facilities — is located right in West Orange. Daughters of Israel offers skilled nursing and memory care, but many families prefer the comfort and dignity of professional in-home care.
