"We hired a young lady from Synergy HomeCare for about an eight-hour span. She helped my grandmother around the house and helped her get ready for a nap and just made sure that she was generally safe in everything that she was doing. She was very good, showed up on time, and was very attentive to her. My event was running a little bit late and she even offered to stay an extra hour, which was very helpful. Everything went very well."

"Pam was an absolute pleasure to work with, very professional and sympathetic to my needs. I needed a home caregiver that was experienced to assist my mother who recently been discharged from a rehab center. Pam made sure that the home caregiver matched up to my mother’s needs including taking the proper medications, light cooking (healthy lunches), walks and rehab. I am very pleased how things worked out with Pam’s attentiveness and exceptional service. I would certainly recommend Actual Homecare Services to anyone needing a home caregiver. My mind is at ease knowing that my mom is in good hands and doing exceptionally well."

The community of Fair Lawn and Bergen County has a number of programs in place to help seniors age at home. These programs are available at little to no cost to needy seniors, helping them with everything from food to home repair.

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.


If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
