Question 1

Do you serve home care in North Edison?

Accepted Answer

Yes. North Edison stretches up toward the Metuchen and Iselin lines and is one of the neighborhoods our caregivers drive every week. The neighborhood holds many of our respite care and 24-hour care cases — older couples in larger split-level homes and adult children coordinating overnight coverage for a parent. A coordinator at our office can usually have a caregiver in the house within 24 to 48 hours of the first call.

Question 2

How quickly can a caregiver start in North Edison?

Accepted Answer

For most North Edison families, the first visit is arranged within 24 to 48 hours of the first call. When a discharge planner at JFK Medical Center calls before the patient leaves the hospital, the window often shrinks to the same day. The first visit is a free in-home assessment by a senior care coordinator who walks through the house, talks with the family, and writes a care plan that fits the household's actual day.

Question 3

What care services do you cover for North Edison households?

Accepted Answer

Both skilled clinical work (nursing visits, post-surgical recovery, IV therapy, wound care, physical and occupational therapy) and non-medical home help (companion care, personal care, light housekeeping, medication reminders) are available. North Edison plans tend to include more overnight and 24-hour blocks than the rest of Edison — a reflection of the neighborhood's older population and larger homes that ask for more coverage hours than a daily morning visit alone.

Question 4

How do you handle the drive between North Edison and JFK Medical Center?

Accepted Answer

Most North Edison households are about 10 to 15 minutes from JFK Medical Center on the south side of the township. A coordinator who has driven the route many times schedules around the Route 27 and Route 1 traffic patterns. For households also using the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, the route runs through Highland Park; the drive is reasonable when the visit is scheduled outside rush hour.
