Call (908) 912-6342 — Private-Duty Caregiver
Coordinated With Kessler Institute — Starts Day of Discharge
A private-duty caregiver after Kessler in West Orange provides what insurance-covered home health can’t: dedicated one-on-one attention for as many hours as your parent needs, with no hour caps, no pre-authorization, and no waiting. At 24 HOUR Home Care NJ, private-duty means your certified aide starts within 24 hours of Kessler discharge, follows every exercise protocol, manages every medication, and provides the continuous fall prevention that rehabilitation patients require.
The AARP reports that insurance-covered home health after rehab is typically limited to a few hours per week of skilled nursing visits — not the daily personal care, exercise reinforcement, and continuous supervision that Kessler patients need. Private-duty care near Kessler Institute fills this gap completely. RN-supervised. See Essex County private-pay.
