Our COVID-19 Policy

Combining Quality, Compassion, and Home Care

When families decide to secure in-home care services for a family member who needs companionship or assistance with their activities of daily living (ADLs), it is essential that they select a home care agency that truly understands the subtle nuances and diverse dynamics of the home care industry. SYNERGY HomeCare of North Central NJ is owned and operated by a team that has experience giving care to their own family members. Tom Horanoff and Tina Romero own and operate the agency located in Piscataway, New Jersey. Together with their schedulers, HR personnel, and caregiver team Tom and Tina ensure that all individuals under their care are treated as an extension of their own family; that is with dignity, respect, and compassion -- all while promoting their client’s daily independence. As one of nearly 175 offices throughout the United States, including several in New Jersey, SYNERGY HomeCare of North Central NJ has both national resources and local owners who are proud to bring compassionate care to both seniors and non-seniors throughout Morris, Union, Middlesex, and Somerset Counties.

“It's important to remember that home care is an essential element in maintaining independence amongst the senior community and also for those individuals with special needs or debilitating diseases or conditions. All too often our clients are initially apprehensive about allowing someone to enter their home to assist them with their ADL's because they fear that it signals a relinquishing of their independence and control. What they soon realize is that in fact, "it actually allows the senior to age in place with dignity, independence, and control in the familiar surroundings and comfort of their own home in the community where they have established lifelong friendships, memories, and routines." - Tom Horanoff, Co-Owner, SYNERGY HomeCare, North Central NJ - Piscataway, NJ

Because We C.A.R.E.

At SYNERGY HomeCare of North Central NJ, we apply the proprietary C.A.R.E. (Coordinated and Responsive Engagement) TEAM approach. Simply said, we don't just provide care, we provide solutions. Using our vast resources, alliances and partnerships, we persevere to provide a solution for every person that contacts our team looking for assistance, regardless of whether or not we offer what they are looking for. We are in this business because "WE CARE" and in truth, we all need to look out for one another. Every caregiver we bring onto our team is carefully screened and is/was either a caregiver to a family member or is highly trained to provide care. Each caregiver undergoes a thorough background check at the local, state, and national levels. Every caregiver who works for SYNERGY HomeCare of North Central NJ is an employee covered under our professional liability insurance. We never hire independent contractors and our home health aides are all paid according to the state and federal tax regulations and covered in accordance with all worker’s compensation laws so that the client and their family have nothing to worry about. This is not the case with many other "agencies" who erroneously apply "1099 status" to their caregivers and operate under a staffing agency model that leaves the client's family liable for substantial risks related to payroll taxes, social security withholdings, unemployment laws, worker’s compensation, scheduling coordination, overtime laws, and caregiver supervision. Our true agency approach and dedicated team can provide both care and peace of mind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on an hourly or Live-in basis.

Customized Care

Choosing SYNERGY HomeCare of North Central NJ means that you will receive a care plan specifically tailored to the needs of you or your family member. If you are a senior who lives alone, our companionship services might be exactly what you need. Companion caregivers can provide homemaking such as light housekeeping, laundry, meal preparation, errands, grocery shopping, and transport if needed. 

We can also provide memory care (i.e. Alzheimer’s/dementia), child care and care for those with special needs or other disabilities. Our personal care is appropriate for anyone in need of personal attention such as bathing, transferring, toileting, dressing, feeding, and incontinence, etc. No matter what your needs, we have a quality home health aide and an ideal care solution to meet those needs.

In addition to Alzheimer's/Dementia care, other customized care plans we provide include:

• Hospice and Home Care – Hospice care provides the highest quality of life for family members approaching the end of their life. Hospice teams typically provide care in the home with a family member serving as the primary caregiver. This is a difficult role and we can partner with your hospice care provider to provide your family with home care services. 
• Hospital Sitters - our Hospital Sitters provide non-medical care during your hospital stay ensuring companionship, comfort, and continuous personal attention. Your Sitter is trained to support busy hospital staff and follow hospital protocol. While never interrupting necessary medical care, your Sitter will always act as an effective, vigilant patient advocate in providing the one on one attention that the hospital staff or family cannot provide.
• Orthopedic Recovery Care - successful recovery from surgery needs a little extra help and the best time to arrange it is before the procedure. We can provide transportation to your surgery and escort you home, provide personal attention and companionship, run errands, prescription pickups, or, assistance preparing and organizing your home for your return, to name a few.
• Surgery Recovery Care - let us assist you by providing a smooth transition from your medical procedure back to your home. We partner with hospitals and surgery centers to provide expert transitions and in-home assistance that ease your recovery, relieve your family members and help get you back on your feet. We can arrange safe transportation and then provide supportive, gentle living assistance for as long as your recovery demands.
• Arthritis Care - home care for people with arthritis. Arthritis is a disease that causes many challenges with daily tasks. Fatigue, muscle weakness, pain, poor sleep and difficulty moving are a part of life for those suffering from arthritis. We can help you with daily activities like shopping, housework, meal preparation and clean up that are made more difficult by the symptoms of arthritis.
