Meet the Team

At ComForCare, we are a family-owned and operated business, and we know that to provide the best home care services to the individuals and families we work with, it’s essential to hire the most qualified caregivers in the area. ComForCare has a rigorous 10-step hiring process to ensure our caregivers meet our high standards. To keep our team members educated on the changes in our industry, we provide continuous training to help ensure the most up-to-date care techniques are used when caring for our clients in South Bergen, New Jersey, and the surrounding areas.

At ComForCare, we believe in developing strong, trusting relationships between clients and caregivers. We understand that each client is unique, so we carefully match them with caregivers whose interests, life experiences, and personalities complement theirs. Before we select caregivers, we take the time to meet with clients, understand their personalities, and learn about their life history. This personalized approach helps us choose the most compatible caregiver, making our clients feel valued and understood. We are a dementia-certified office and can help you and your family create the most robust care plan for your loved one at home.

Our team comprises individuals who are caregivers to their loved ones as well, so you will see that they thrive on going the extra mile to ensure the quality of care is met. We pride ourselves on ensuring your quality of care is above average. We are proud to have these individuals on our team here at ComForCare Jamesburg.
