It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Burlington County Historical Society gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Burlington, NJ is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Green Acres Park with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Hen of the Wood - Burlington or visit Grant House, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?
A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Burlington, NJ, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.
Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.
Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.
For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.
More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.
With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Burlington, NJ understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.
Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Burlington, NJ 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

Burlington County seniors now have a new convenient location to learn about county programs and services available to them and their families. Beginning Oct. 7, staff from the Burlington County Office on Aging will be present at the County Corner Store in the Moorestown Mall on the first Monday of each month from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. They will be available to answer questions and provide information about various senior programs, services, and benefits.
Last year, over 2,000 Burlington County seniors benefited from Office on Aging programs. This included 1,335 seniors who regularly received meals through the County’s Meals on Wheels program and more than 570 who attended the County’s congregate nutrition sites.
“Burlington County strives to make a difference for every resident, including our seniors,” said Burlington County Commissioner Director Felicia Hopson. “Bringing Office on Aging staff to the County Corner Store at the mall is another way for seniors to learn about the many programs and services available to assist them, including meals on wheels, fitness classes and caregiver support. It’s a great opportunity for seniors to access information in a convenient location that’s very familiar to them.”
Some of the services and programs the Office on Aging can provide information about include:
Burlington County residents can also access more details about these and other services seniors may be eligible for through the Burlington County Office on Aging’s Directory of Services. The comprehensive 120-page directory outlines programs for the county’s seniors, disabled residents, and their caregivers. It is available online at https://co.burlington.nj.us/434/Aging or by contacting the Office on Aging at 609-265-5069, ext. 101.
“Burlington County is a premier destination for residents of all ages and the services we provide seniors help them live active and healthy lives here,” Hopson noted. “The Office on Aging is a fantastic resource and we encourage local residents and their caregivers to reach out to them to learn more about these programs.”
The County Corner Store, located within the Moorestown Mall on Route 38, regularly offers services such as U.S. Passport applications, notary applications, vote-by-mail applications and new business filings as a satellite office for the Burlington County Clerk. On Saturdays, the Superintendent of Elections staff is also on hand to answer voting questions, register voters and provide tutorials on using the County’s new voting machines.

BURLINGTON TWP. — A major hotel chain and other redevelopment is on the way here, barring any last-minute setbacks.
A Hilton Tru/Home2 Suites hotel is in the works for a site along Bromley Boulevard in Burlington Township. The applicant has received minor subdivision and major site plan approval to build its project here in an area referred to as the MRP Industrial/Clarion Redevelopment Area.
The hotel appears to be in the final stages in the process as it awaits approved site plans, once some compliance issues are addressed.
“The proposed Hilton Tru/Home2 Suites Hotel has all required municipal approvals and is working on resolution compliance so approved site plans can be issued,” township engineer Scott Hatfield said in an email to the Burlington County Times and Courier-Post.
The full-service hotel is to have approximately 150 rooms, with conference and meeting facilities as well.
The location (Block 125, Lots 2.09 & 2.10) is near Bromley Boulevard and Route 541, where the old Burlington Center Mall once stood. That area has seen quite a bit of redevelopment in the last few years with several large warehouses being built as well as a retail center, which includes Raising Canes, Panera Bread, Freddy’s Frozen Custard and Steakburgers, SleepNumber and Discount Tire.
The area has proximity to Interstate 295, the New Jersey Turnpike and other major roads. It is near Westampton, Eastampton, Mount Holly, Willingboro, Burlington City, Mount Laurel and others.
There is also a large 500-unit multi-family development currently under construction near the Regal Theater at Bromley Boulevard and Hancock Lane.
The housing project is being developed by Jefferson Apartment Group across 40 acres, and includes 20 buildings of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments and townhouses with two standalone clubhouses, two courtyards, a dog park, walking trails, pickleball courts, fire pits, a putting green, swimming pools, a playground and more.
Housing on its wayDevelopment to bring 500 homes to this Burlington County town
Approximately 100 affordable units are included in the housing project, which is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2025.
The entire project, rebranded as “Crossings," is being executed by a partnership with MRP Industrial and Clarion Partners, with assistance from Moonbeam Capital Investments, according to the business media company ROI-NJ.
By its completion, Crossings is to support more than 2.5-million square feet of warehouse/industrial space, approximately 135,000 square feet of retail space and that 150-plus room hotel, in addition to the 500-unit multifamily community, ROI-NJ said.
“Our redevelopment and repurposing plan successfully reinvigorated a site that was removed from the tax rolls and was generally creating blight over an entire region,” MRP Industrial Senior Vice President Brian Peterson told Real Estate NJ.
“The resultant program, which moved forward with the endorsement and support of Burlington County officials, creates minimal additional stress on local county services, while adding sorely needed jobs, taxes and housing that benefits all residents.”

A Passaic County Burlington store is making a move this fall.
The discount department store’s Wayne Hills Mall location is relocating across the parking lot to replace a former Toys ”R” Us.
The shop previously located at 24 Wayne Hills Mall will be situated at 7 Wayne Hills Mall and officially open on Nov. 8.
Wayne’s Burlington location will feature a revamped store layout. Shoppers will be able to find discounts on Burlington’s usual items, including ladies’ apparel and accessories, menswear with an assortment of big and tall sizes, kidswear, baby gear, home décor and petcare products.
As Burlington moves to the new location, it is also looking to hire employees for several open positions. Those who are interested in applying can do so here.
Its grand opening weekend will run from Nov. 8-10 with deals and giveaways for customers. From Friday, Nov. 8 to Saturday, Nov. 9, the retailer will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony and the first 100 customers, who are 18 and older, will receive a $10 Bonus Card to use toward their purchase. On Sunday, Nov. 10, customers will receive a free Burlington umbrella when they visit the store.
Burlington Wayne Hills Mall will be open Monday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m., Friday to Saturday from 9-12 a.m., and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m.
This recent relocation follows the opening of a Burlington at the River Front Center in Clifton on April 26, occupying a space that previously housed Bed Bath & Beyond. New Jersey now has 51 Burlington stores across the state.
Three more stores are planned to open on Nov. 1 in Bridgewater at 155 Promenade Blvd., Eatontown at 92 State Route 36 and Vauxhall at 2255 Springfield Ave.
The discount chain operates more than 1,057 stores nationwide, as of June 2024.

Burlington County is starting to mail General Election vote-by-mail (VBM) ballots to registered voters who requested one so those voters should be on the lookout for their ballot to arrive soon.
More than 50,000 vote-by-mail ballots are being sent to voters this week in advance of the Nov. 5 General Election. Voters can cast those ballots in multiple ways, including by mail, drop box or by bringing them directly to the Burlington County Board of Elections office. No postage is necessary to return a vote-by-mail ballot by mail in Burlington County.
“Voting by mail is a simple and easy way for voters to cast ballot when it’s most convenient for their schedule,” said Burlington County Clerk Joanne Schwartz. “It’s an easy and secure way to exercise this important right.”
The Burlington County Elections Board will accept completed VBM ballots at their office at 301 Harper Drive in Moorestown during their regular hours between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. on weekdays leading up to Election Day. On Election Day, Nov. 5, the board will accept ballots on location until polls close at 8 p.m.
There is also a secure drop box located immediately outside the building, one of 29 located throughout the county. VBM ballots can be deposited in the boxes at all hours until 8 p.m. on Election Day on Nov. 5.
A full list of all drop box locations is available online at https://www.co.burlington.nj.us/2102/Secure-Ballot-Drop-Boxes .
Completed VBM ballots submitted through the U.S. Postal Service will also be accepted so long as they are postmarked before 8 PM Nov. 5 and are received by the Board of Elections within six days after the Election.
The Burlington County Clerk also has staff at Harper Drive and will accept and process VBM applications there and at their Main office at 50 Rancocas Road, Mount Holly. Other Burlington County Clerk services, such as passport applications, deed and business filings, remain at 50 Rancocas Road, Mount Holly, and at the County Corner Store satellite office in the Moorestown Mall. Voted ballots should not be returned to the County Store or either of the County Clerk’s offices.
Registered voters interested in voting with a VBM ballot can still request one from the Clerk’s Office now until 3 p.m. on Nov. 4. A request form can be found online at https://www.co.burlington.nj.us/996/Vote-by-Mail-Information.
All requests to receive a VBM by mail must be received by the office by Oct. 29. After that date, registered voters must go to the Clerk’s offices at either 301 Harper Drive or 50 Rancocas Road in Mount Holly to make a request in-person. The final day to request and receive a VBM ballot in person is Nov. 4 at 3 p.m.
Burlington County residents can also register to vote at the new Superintendent of Elections Office at 301 Harper Drive between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. on weekdays and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the County Corner Store location in the Moorestown Mall. Registration may also be done online at https://nj.gov/state/elections/voter-registration.shtml .
All voters must register by Oct. 15 to be eligible to vote in the Nov. 5 General Election.
