Newark is New Jersey's largest city, a place of tight-knit neighborhoods and families who look after their own. Towne Home Care has supported NJ families with CHHA-certified caregivers and RN-supervised care plans since 1991, helping aging parents stay in the homes and communities they love.
Newark is New Jersey's largest city and the seat of Essex County, a place defined by its neighborhoods. From the Ironbound to Forest Hill to Weequahic and the North Ward, families here have deep roots and strong traditions of caring for aging parents and grandparents at home.
For Newark families, the right home care often means support that respects those traditions, working alongside the family rather than replacing them. Whether it is a few hours a week, full live-in support, or specialized memory care, the right caregiver helps a loved one stay where they are most comfortable. 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.
Every family is different. Some need help for a few hours while everyone is at work. Others need full-time support for a parent who can no longer be alone. We offer the full range of in-home care services so the plan can shift as needs change.
A caregiver in the home day and night. The right choice when a loved one should not be alone and the family wants them to stay in their own home.

Newark families have many home care options. Here is what makes Towne the agency they come to trust.
We are based in New Jersey, not a national call center routing your inquiry elsewhere. You will reach people who know the area and respond quickly.
Every plan is written by a registered nurse who visits your home, meets your loved one in person, and tailors the approach to their actual life.
Every caregiver holds New Jersey CHHA certification. Background-checked, professionally trained, and supervised by our internal team.
We match caregivers thoughtfully and work to send the same person each visit. Familiar faces build trust and make daily routines easier.
You will leave the consultation with a clear written quote. No hidden fees, no fine print, no rate changes a few months in.
Things do not always happen during business hours. We are available 24/7 for emergencies, last-minute coverage, and questions that cannot wait.
Most Newark families have care in place within a few days. Here is what the process looks like.
A conversation about your loved one's situation. We listen, we answer questions, we explain what care could look like. No pressure.
A registered nurse visits the home, meets your loved one, and writes a personalized care plan that fits the household.
We pair your family with a caregiver whose skills and personality fit. The right match changes the entire experience.
The caregiver shows up on schedule. We stay in touch and adjust the plan as your loved one's needs change.
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.
