Free Assisted Living Resources in Howell
Howell Township and Monmouth County have made many resources available to their older residents, some of which are listed here. These examples can help seniors handle disputes with their care providers, know where to get medical help if they served in the military and find local nonprofits that will help them support their communities.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (877) 582-6996 | Seniors concerned about the quality of their care or unable to resolve disagreements with their care providers can call on the assistance of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman. Advocating for the senior, the ombudsman will investigate the complaint and pursue a resolution with the owner or manager of the facility. The ombudsman can also investigate complaints made by others and provide copies of inspection reports to seniors comparing different facilities, enabling them to make more informed decisions. |
| United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties | (848) 206-2037 | Based at the Volunteer Center in Wall Township, United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties connects seniors with local nonprofit organizations that rely on the help of volunteers. Seniors dictate the amount of time they can spare and the agency links them to a suitable nonprofit that could use their skills and experience to support the community. Work can vary greatly, such as delivering meals to homebound seniors, doing clerical work in an office and mentoring the county's younger residents. |
| James J. Howard Veterans' Outpatient Clinic | (732) 206-8900 | The James J. Howard Veterans' Outpatient Clinic serves Monmouth County's vets and their families. It provides primary care services, performs surgeries, manages mental health care programs and includes an immunology department. The site also has pharmacists, optometrists, podiatrists and dentists. Patients in need of specialist care unavailable at the clinic are transferred to the East Orange VA Medical Center in Newark, which is just over an hour away. |
| Monmouth County Office on Aging | (732) 431-7450 | Monmouth County Office on Aging is the local Area Agency on Aging, a multi-resource service dedicated to supporting the county's older residents. Much of its work relates to seniors residing at home. However, of particular interest to assisted living residents will be the support the agency can provide if they need transportation assistance and want to join one of the county's senior centers. |
