Get Started!
Rumson is more than just a place to live; it is a lifestyle defined by beauty, history, and the water. Whether your parents have lived on the "Two Rivers" for decades, or they reside in a historic estate along Rumson Road, we understand why they want to stay. The quiet elegance of the borough and the memories built within their walls are irreplaceable.
At ComForCare North Monmouth, we specialize in helping Rumson residents age in place safely. We know that maintaining a large home or navigating the unique geography of the peninsula can become challenging with age. Our office, located just minutes away, provides the discreet, professional, and compassionate support your family needs to keep your loved one home—where they belong.
For many seniors in Rumson, the home is a sanctuary. However, the very features that make these homes beautiful—expansive floor plans, historic architecture, and waterfront proximity—can present mobility and safety challenges later in life.
We don't just "watch" your loved one; we facilitate their lifestyle. We understand the specific needs of families in this area, where privacy and high standards of care are paramount. We act as an extension of your family, offering peace of mind to adult children whether they are commuting via the Seastreak Ferry or living out of state.
Explore our Personal Care Services tailored for dignity and independence.
We offer flexible care models, from brief check-in visits to 24-hour live-in support, ensuring that as your parents' needs evolve, our care evolves with them.
Rumson’s geography—surrounded by the Navesink and Shrewsbury rivers—requires a distinct attention to safety for those with memory impairment. Our DementiaWise® program is recognized for its proactive approach to Alzheimer’s and dementia.
We train our caregivers to manage behavioral changes with empathy. For clients in Rumson, we pay special attention to wandering prevention near water and creating "safety zones" within larger homes. We also use meaningful engagement techniques, such as looking through old photos of the borough or listening to music from their era, to reduce anxiety and spark joy.
Asking for help with bathing or dressing is never easy. Our caregivers are trained to provide assistance that is respectful and unobtrusive. We help your loved one maintain their appearance and routine—whether that means getting dressed for Sunday service at St. George’s-by-the-River or simply feeling fresh and comfortable for a quiet afternoon at home.
Many of our Rumson clients are retired professionals, executives, and community leaders who value conversation and connection. Our Companion Care goes beyond basic supervision. We match caregivers who can engage in stimulating discussions, play cards, or share a cup of tea on the back patio. We focus on combating isolation, which is a key factor in long-term health.
When you hire care for a parent, you need a team that is responsive and accountable.
We are locally owned and operated right here in Monmouth County. We know the area—from the traffic patterns on the Oceanic Bridge to the best routes to medical specialists in Red Bank. When you call us, you are speaking to neighbors who understand the local landscape, not a distant operator.
We know that inviting a caregiver into a private Rumson residence requires a high level of trust. We employ a rigorous 10-step hiring process. All our caregivers are W-2 employees (not contractors), fully bonded, insured, and background-checked. We look for individuals who demonstrate not just skill, but the discretion and professionalism your family expects.
Isolation is a health risk. Provided it is safe to do so, our caregivers encourage outings to keep your loved one connected to the town they love. We can provide transportation and accompaniment to:
The Oceanic Free Library: A historic landmark perfect for browsing books, attending quiet community events, or simply enjoying a change of scenery in a familiar setting.
Scenic Drives: A drive along the river to watch the boats, or a trip to Victory Park to enjoy the waterfront breeze from a bench, can do wonders for a senior's mood.
Local Dining: Assistance with a lunch outing to Brennan’s or a quiet early dinner at a local favorite, ensuring they can still enjoy the local flavors.
Religious Services: We can provide transportation and support for attendance at Holy Cross or St. George’s-by-the-River, helping them stay connected to their faith community.
We ensure your loved one gets to their appointments on time and safely. We frequently transport clients to Riverview Medical Center and private practices in nearby Fair Haven, Red Bank, and Shrewsbury. We can also act as a second set of ears during appointments, taking notes to share with family members.
Do you provide care for couples in the same home? Yes. Many of our clients in Rumson are couples who wish to age in place together. We can structure a care plan that supports both parents, often significantly more affordably than paying for two separate facility fees.
Can you support clients with high-mobility needs in multi-story homes? Absolutely. We specialize in fall prevention. We can assist with safe ambulation, help navigate stairlifts (if installed), and recommend environmental changes to reduce trip hazards in larger homes.
How quickly can we start services? We offer a rapid response for families in crisis. Because we are local to the peninsula, we can often perform an intake and begin care within 24 hours.
Do you work with Long-Term Care Insurance? Yes. We have extensive experience working with Long-Term Care (LTC) insurance policies and can assist with the necessary paperwork to ensure you maximize your benefits.
Planning for the future doesn't have to be overwhelming. If you have a loved one in Rumson and are noticing changes in their mobility or memory, let’s have a conversation.
ComForCare North Monmouth offers a complimentary Home Safety Assessment. We will visit your parent's home, evaluate safety risks, and discuss a personalized care plan that fits your family's lifestyle.
