Care for the city where families have stayed

Clifton is the second-largest city in Passaic County and one of New Jersey's most established communities. Many Clifton families have lived in their homes for decades, with adult children and grandchildren still living in the same neighborhoods their parents and grandparents grew up in.

That continuity shapes how home care works here. When a parent starts needing more help, the goal is rarely to move them somewhere else. The goal is to keep them in the home they have lived in for 30 or 40 years, near the people and places that matter. Home care makes that possible. That is the work Towne has been doing for NJ families since 1991.

If you are early in the process of choosing an agency, we put together a guide on how to choose the right home care agency in NJ with the full list of questions every family should ask, the regulatory standards New Jersey requires, and the red flags to walk away from.

What NJ families say

Towne Home Care is a dream to work with. Their aides are compassionate and skilled in providing high level home care. The front office is professional and accurate, handling billing and accounting timely. Having to engage home health care for a loved one is stressful and they make the process so easy. I have no doubt that my 90-year old dad is doing as well as he is today because of the care he gets from Towne.
