What We Do in Ocean County

Working Across Ocean County

Ocean County families often reach out when a parent’s independence starts to look fragile: routines slipping, growing forgetfulness, safety risks that never show up in a quick phone call. If you’re coordinating everything along Route 37, Route 70, the Garden State Parkway or U.S. 9, you know how fast caregiving turns into constant logistics.

The goal here is simple: keep home safe and predictable, even when life around it isn’t. Care brings structure back to the week, and gives you some breathing room if you’re juggling work and family alongside it.

  • Family-owned, not a national franchise. Peace oversees care herself, and no franchise fee goes to a head office.
  • RN supervision for every certified aide.
  • Direct communication with a New Jersey team, not a call center out of state — and honest expectations from the first call.

Where Our Coverage Ends

We'd rather tell you now than after a visit.

We cover Toms River and the Ocean County towns around it, and we'll confirm your parent's exact address on the first call. If you're outside Monmouth and Ocean County, we're probably not the right agency for your family — and we'd rather say that on the phone than send someone out to tell you in person.

Towns we serve most often

  • Toms River
  • Brick Township, Lakewood and Jackson
  • Beachwood, Pine Beach and Island Heights
  • Berkeley Township, Seaside Heights and Seaside Park
  • Barnegat, Manahawkin and Stafford Township
  • Point Pleasant, Bay Head and Mantoloking

Call any time. After-hours calls are returned the next morning.

Peace Tsaku, MSW

Twenty-two years in home care, the last of them running this agency out of Tinton Falls rather than a franchise office in another state.

Every plan of care here is overseen by a registered nurse. The social workers on staff hold master's degrees, which matters more than it sounds like it should — it's usually how a family finds out about a state or community program nobody had mentioned to them.

Peace's direct line is 732-685-0786. When you call it, she answers. Not a receptionist, and not a national intake line.

Home Care in Ocean County: Common Questions

Is this medical home health?
No. We provide non-medical home care focused on daily support and safety. For skilled nursing — wound care, injections, IV therapy — you need a home health agency.
How fast can you start?
Typically within one to three days. When a parent is coming home from the hospital, we work to start sooner.
Do you accept insurance?
It depends on the plan. We accept Aetna, AmeriHealth, Cigna, Humana and Oscar plans, and many Medicare Advantage plans. Traditional Medicare does not cover non-medical home care. Long-term care insurance, veterans’ benefits and NJ FamilyCare / Medicaid MLTSS can also pay for it. We verify your parent’s benefits before care begins, so there are no surprise bills.
Do you cover my parent’s town?
We serve towns across Ocean County, from Toms River north to Point Pleasant and south to Barnegat. We confirm coverage for your parent’s exact address on the first call, before anyone visits.
Do you offer 24/7 care?
No. We don't currently offer overnight, 24-hour or live-in care. Our care is scheduled visits, with a minimum of four hours per visit, 16 to 20 hours a week. If your parent needs someone there around the clock, we'll say so on the first call and point you to an agency that provides it.
