What We Do in Toms River

Working in Toms River

In Toms River, families often reach out when “mostly fine” turns into “we can't leave them alone anymore.” Whether you're coordinating help off Route 37, managing appointments along Route 166, or juggling everything that runs up and down U.S. 9, the pressure tends to land on one person: you.

If your mother still enjoys getting out to places like Cattus Island County Park, that matters as much as any safety checklist. Care here is meant to keep that going, not replace it.

  • Locally owned, not a franchise. We're not Visiting Angels, Home Instead or Comfort Keepers. Peace oversees care quality herself, and no franchise fee goes to a head office.
  • One primary caregiver matched to your family, with a backup for cover. Not a different stranger every week.
  • Certified and supervised. Aides are certified by the NJ Board of Nursing and supervised by registered nurses, working for a registered NJ Health Care Service Firm.

Where Our Coverage Ends

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

We cover Toms River and the townships around it. 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.

From Toms River we regularly reach

  • Downtown Toms River, near Washington Street
  • Silverton, North Dover and Pleasant Plains
  • Beachwood, Pine Beach and Island Heights
  • Lakewood, Brick Township and Berkeley Township

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 Toms River: Common Questions

Do you cover all of Toms River and nearby Ocean County?
Yes. We serve Toms River and the communities around it, including Beachwood, Lakewood, Brick and Berkeley Township. We'll confirm coverage for your exact address on the first call.
Can you start quickly after a hospital discharge?
Yes. Most families start within one to three days, and we work to start sooner when someone is being discharged urgently from Community Medical Center or rehab.
Do you offer 24/7 or live-in care in Toms River?
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.
How is Key Family Care different from the big franchise agencies?
We're locally owned and don't answer to corporate quotas. Peace is directly involved in hiring, training and overseeing care, and she answers the phone herself.
