FAQs About Senior Home Care in NJ
What’s the difference between “companion care” and “personal care”?
Companion care focuses on social interaction and light household tasks, while personal care includes hands-on assistance (bathing, toileting, mobility). Astir tailors both to your needs.
How do I know if my parent needs in-home care?
Signs include struggling with chores, forgetting medications, or isolation. A free consultation with our nursing supervisor helps assess the right level of care.
Are caregivers trained for dementia patients?
Yes. Our team receives specialized training in Alzheimer’s/dementia care, including communication techniques and safety protocols.
Does Medicare Pay for Hourly Home Care?
- Medicare covers inpatient hospital care and some of the doctors’ fees and other medical items for people with Alzheimer’s or dementia who are age 65 or older. Medicare Part D also covers many prescription drugs.
- Medicare will pay for up to 100 days of skilled nursing home care under limited circumstances. However, custodial long-term nursing home care is not covered.
- Medicare will pay for hospice care delivered in the home, a nursing facility or an inpatient hospice facility for people with dementia who are determined by a doctor to be near the end of life.
- Medicare will not cover the cost of non-medical home care (long-term care) in the home. Medicare was designed to cover short-term illnesses and rehabilitation time.

The cost of care at any level depends on the amount and type of care needed.
The average monthly cost of care per month according to the Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2021:
- Assisted Living in NJ is $6,470 per month
- Nursing Home Care in NJ is $11,250 for a semi-private room.
The average cost of elder care varies vastly between states, depending on the cost of living in the region.
Generally, home care is always less expensive except in special cases where there is a need for 24-hour care or for offering specialized advanced treatments for prolonged periods.
