Home Care Kenvil, NJ

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 Ledgewood Historic Park 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 Kenvil, NJ is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

The Always Best Care Difference

Since 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they get older. We are proud to have helped more than 25,000 seniors maintain higher levels of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of in-home care available so that they may live happily and independently.

Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs. That way, they may provide care accordingly without compromising their wellbeing.

The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life. Whether you are an aging adult that can't quite keep up with life's daily tasks or the child of a senior who needs regular in-home services, Always Best Care is here to help.

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Kenvil, NJ?

lm-check

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.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

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.

lm-check

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.

Respite Care

Respite Care Services

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 Grilled Cheese Gourmet or visit Waterloo Village Historic Site, 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.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

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.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

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 Kenvil, 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.

 Elderly Care Kenvil, NJ

Affordable 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:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your NJ's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

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 Kenvil, 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.

Assisted Living Referral Services

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.


Respite Care Kenvil, NJ

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:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation

Hercules Website Gives Info on History, Pollution and Cleanup of Explosives Site in Roxbury

ROXBURY, NJ - The company that owns the 1,000-acre Hercules site in Kenvil, where explosives were made for more than a century, has created a website where people can learn about former and ongoing pollution cleanup efforts.

The site, created by Hercules LLC, can be accessed by clicking here.

The site includes current and vintage photographs of Hercules operations as well as a history, a timeline and a library of critical documents. The documents are all public submissions from Hercules to the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).

Although the documents are public, gaining access to many of the reports has been challenging for those who tried over the years, including people affiliated with the Raritan Headwaters Association (RHA). The RHA is concerned about the impact on the Black River of cleanup efforts at the site.

The company's "choice of library documents includes thousands of pages, yet constitutes a tiny fraction of the full clean-up record over the past 25 years," said RHA Volunteer Brian Lynch. "The creation of the website ... follows a successful petition drive by the Raritan Headwater Association to get the DEP to arrange public hearings and greater transparency."

Earlier this year, Lynch wrote a long guest column on TAPinto Roxbury in which he discussed the Hercules site pollution and cleanup efforts. That column can be accessed by clicking here.

Although the website doesn't provide the public with a question-and-answer or frequently-asked-questions feature, it does provide a means to contact Hercules. However, while three months have passed since Hercules launched the site, the company has yet to schedule a public hearing, noted Lynch.

In a blog post, Lynch urges people to spend some time with the new website. "If you still have questions, please use the Contact Us feature to ask them (Hercules) your questions and demand a public hearing to discuss the answers," he wrote. "Let them know that, for you, the website doesn't replace a public meeting."

Hercules is in the middle of treating 100,000 tons of dirt at the site contaminated with trinitrotoluene (TNT) and the removal of 10,000 tons of soil contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

Another company, Hartz Mountain Industries, is seeking Roxbury Planning Board approval to build a massive warehouse complex on about 200 acres of the property. If it wins approval for the so-called "Roxbury Commerce Center," the company will buy about 800 acres from Hercules and set aside about 500 acres for open space with a portion to be dedicated to the DEP for permanent preservation.

The Hercules site is the largest, commercially zoned undeveloped parcel in Morris County. It was the scene of numerous explosions, some deadly, over the years before being shut down in December 1996.

Mayor Raises Concerns About Gas Company's Impact on Roxbury Roads

ROXBURY, NJ – (Updated March 1 with further comments by NJNG) Having dealt for a year with rough pavement in front of her Kenvil Avenue house - due to a New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) gas main replacement project - Roxbury Mayor Jaki Albrecht this week said the company needs to do better.Albrecht was driven to complain by NJNG’s current work on Main Street in Succasunna.

ROXBURY, NJ – (Updated March 1 with further comments by NJNG) Having dealt for a year with rough pavement in front of her Kenvil Avenue house - due to a New Jersey Natural Gas (NJNG) gas main replacement project - Roxbury Mayor Jaki Albrecht this week said the company needs to do better.

Albrecht was driven to complain by NJNG’s current work on Main Street in Succasunna. The company is installing about two miles of new, 12-inch-diameter steel gas main, according to spokesman Michael Kinney.

“During construction, short sections of Main Street will be closed and detours posted,” Kinney explained. “At the end of each workday, the roadway will be reopened for normal traffic. Work on this system reinforcement project is expected to take approximately two months to complete.”

Albrecht is not impressed or happy, especially about the way NJNG seems to dig into roads that are in good condition due to relatively recent paving work.

“I really want to say that New Jersey Natural Gas is absolutely destroying our roads,” she said at this week’s Roxbury Mayor and Council meeting. “Main Street in Succasunna is horrific. We just had it paved … and it is an absolute mess. I feel like every time we’re paving a road, New Jersey Natural Gas is coming in and digging them up and only paving half.”

Kinney said NJNJ expects to install about 200 feet of new gas main per day and doesn’t intend on leaving Main Street bumpy, with temporary patches, forever. “Once the work is complete, the road will temporarily patched, to allow for settlement, and then the final repaving will take place,” he said.

The bumpiness of Kenvil Avenue, a road owned by Morris County, irritates Albrecht not only because she’s forced to drive it daily but also because of the noise – particularly from trucks hitting the patched pavement – she and her family endure.

'Committed to Working Closely With Towns'

Roxbury Department of Public Works Director Rick Blood said it usually takes six months for temporary patches to settle before new, final pavement can be applied. NJNG also pointed out that "once construction work is complete, a temporary patch is installed. This allows the roadway to be reopened while the ground settles – a process that typically takes months to occur. If final paving is done before the ground is fully settled, it can result in an uneven road surface. Once that’s complete, final repaving will take place."

Last year, Morris County Communications Director Vincent Vitale said Kenvil Avenue will get that final layer this spring. He also said the county’s inspector drove the roadway … and reported that, while there is extensive patching, the roadway rides smooth.”

Albrecht, and anybody who drives Kenvil Avenue, knows that’s not the case.

“I just wanted to get my frustration on the record,” she said. “My street is definitely impacted. Trucks go by every day: Bang, bang, bang. Kenvil Avenue is terrible now and Main Street Succasunna is going to be just as bad.”

Albrecht said she is also concerned NJNG’s work on Main Street might be hurting the relatively new Main Street Streetscaping project wherein – using state grant money – Roxbury installed new decorative curbing, sidewalks and streetlamps on the north side of the road.

The gas company's contractors appear to be working on the opposite side of the street, but Albrecht said she's seen impacts to the streetscaping elements.

“If you look at it right now … (NJNG is) totally destroying the streetscaping that we worked so hard to put in,” she said. “What a waste of money and resources New Jersey Natural Gas is putting on these towns, not to mention the traffic delays and reroutes and the frustration.”

Kinney said the company “is reinforcing its system to support safe, reliable service to customers in Morris County” by upgrading the gas distribution system. In a subsequent statement, the company said it is "committed to working closely with the towns to minimize any impacts due to construction," and said it realizes that installation of new gas lines can be disruptive.

"We understand that large scale projects like this can be frustrating, and we appreciate the community’s understanding while work is ongoing," NJNG said. "NJNG is also committed to restoring the affected areas to the original condition or better."

Blood said the line being installed in Main Street is a "trunk line" without connections to individual customers.

"It will just be a single trench," he said. "This line will run the length of Main Stfeet, through Ruethers, across Route 10 and up the rest of Main Street and then out onto Route 46 to Orben Drive (in Ledgewood) where it terminates."

He said NJNG will be starting a gas line replacement project later this month. "This project will begin in Denville and run around the breakdown lane of Route 10 westbound which will terminate on South Street, connecting to the new line currently being installed," Blood explained. "The project is expected to be completed by June of 2025."

ROXBURY, NJ – A J. Crew Factory store will soon open in the Ledgewood building that formerly served as home to a Ruby Tuesday restaurant.

The apparel retailer, an offshoot of J. Crew that stocks a lower-cost line of clothing, obtained a “tenant fit-out” permit from the Roxbury Township Building Department on Feb. 8, according to township records. Workers have been inside the 5,142-square-foot Shops at Ledgewood Commons unit doing what it takes to convert the former eatery into an apparel retailer.

Roxbury’s Ruby Tuesday closed in August 2016. It was one of about 95 eliminated by the Maryville, TN chain as part of an “asset rationalization” that month.

The unit it vacated, adjacent to the Men’s Wearhouse haberdashery, was envisioned by The Shops at Ledgewood Commons developers as being a good place for a replacement restaurant. With that in mind, they included an outdoor area suitable for tables when they revamped the building.

J. Crew’s corporate press office did not return voice and email requests for comment about the forthcoming Ledgewood store. The company’s J. Crew Factory website indicates it is now searching for a director and assistant managers for the new outpost.

It says its J. Crew Factory outlets are stores, where shopping is “really fun,” and shoppers can find an “exclusive collection of colorful, classic styles at prices that can’t be beat – period.”

The current J. Crew Factory store closest to Roxbury is at Rockaway Town Plaza near the Rockaway Townsquare Mall.

ROXBURY, NJ – Roxbury people have been good, for goodness’ sake or otherwise. The proof: Santa – often joined by his wife – has been making many public appearances around town this month.

Jolly St. Nick was seen recently at a Special Needs Santa Land event, at the Roxbury Home for the Holidays Santa Land photo shoot, at the Roxbury Christmas Tree and Menorah Lighting Ceremony, at a St. Therese Church meet-and-greet and at Pet Photos with Santa opportunity in the Roxbury Recreation Center. The red-clad couple is also showing up tonight at the Roxbury Interact Club’s free Holiday Movie Night.

Then, it’s time to hit the road as all three Roxbury fire companies will soon be driving around Roxbury neighborhoods, sirens wailing, with Santa waving from atop fire engines.

The first of these "Santa Runs" is scheduled for tomorrow, Dec. 9, when Father Christmas will be escorted by Roxbury Company #3 Fire and First Aid. He'll be plying the roads around Lower Berkshire Valley and Kenvil, waving all the way.

Next up will be Roxbury Co. 1 Fire and EMS which plans to give Santa a firetruck tour of Succasunna, Kenvil and Ledgewood on Saturday Dec. 16 starting at 8:30 am.

“In an effort for everyone to see Santa during daylight this year, we will be dividing Roxbury into two sections, Blue and Gold,” said the Co. 1 firefighters. “We will make our best efforts in driving slowly down each street to allow time for everyone to see Santa, but unfortunately we will not be able to stop at individual houses.”

They explained that the Blue section comprises all houses north of Hillside Avenue and East of Route 10, while the Gold section is all houses south of Hillside Avenue and West of Route 10.

“We look forward to seeing everyone out on Saturday dressed up for the holidays,” said Co. 1. “Don’t forget to tag us in any photos you take on Facebook or Instagram!”

Somehow (quantum entanglement?) Santa will simultaneously be perched on a fire engine out of Roxbury Fire and First Aid Co. 2. That station said its Dec. 16 tour of Landing, Port Morris and Mooney Mountain will begin at 9 a.m. and continue until about 5 p.m.

“This year has been very busy for our volunteers, and unfortunately we are unable to do individual visits,” noted the firefighters of Co. 2. “Hopefully next year we can add to our ranks with some new volunteers and provide this additional service to our residents.”

ROXBURY, NJ – An unusually complex gas main restoration project on Kenvil Avenue this year has made driving north on the road somewhat of a rough ride, but officials said the bumps are not permanent.

The road is owned and maintained by Morris County, and the black patches covering places where workers this year dug into the thoroughfare are a temporary necessity, said Morris County Communications Director Vincent Vitale.

“Final pavement restoration will occur in Spring 2024,” said Vitale. “While half the roadway is planned to be paved, there are areas in which both sides of the roadway will need restoration work. We will determine the exact limits prior to final restoration.”

For much of the year, New Jersey Natural Gas has been using “directional drilling methods, not the typical open cut method” to replace - with new a “poly” line - the older steel gas main below the mile-long road between Main Street and Route 46, said Vitale and Roxbury Department of Public Works Director Rick Blood.

“The new poly main was installed using a boring method, which according to the contractor was quicker than open trenching,” Blood said. “During this process, every utility in the path of the boring tool was excavated to ensure the mole did not come in contact with the existing water, sewer or gas service lines.”

After the new gas main was put in place, tested and filled, the workers had to find all the gas service lines to homes and businesses along the road, disconnect them from the old main and connect them to the new one, according to Blood.

To do the job, the contractors had to dig through 7-year-old pavement that was in good condition. Blood and Vitale explained that the current paving patches on Kenvil Avenue are temporary, but are likely to remain throughout the winter.

“Regarding the restoration of Kenvil Ave., most municipal entities require a settling period of six months before any final paving is completed,” Blood said.

Motorists driving over the current patchwork might disagree, but Vitale said “the county’s inspector drove the roadway … and reported that, while there is extensive patching, the roadway rides smooth.”

However, he added that, “if there are specific areas that travelers find difficult to drive on, they should contact the county directly at 973-285-6750 or [email protected].”
