VNACJ Watch
VNACJ Watch is a personal monitoring device that can be worn as a pendant or on the wrist and includes a transmitter to summon quick assistance, 24 hours a day.
VNACJ Watch includes two-way voice contact and an extra sensitive microphone.
Upon answering the call for help, an experienced listener will immediately assess the situation and take appropriate action whether it be calling a neighbor, family member or ambulance. You can rest easy knowing your loved one has 24-hour emergency response access.
VNACJ Watch+
In addition to receiving the
VNACJ Watch monitoring device, the
VNACJ Watch+ program includes an initial RN visit and evaluation plus a follow-up 2-hour teaching program on how to avoid accidents at home. The teaching program is customized to your environment and living activities.
VNACJ Watch Over Me
VNACJ Watch Over Me includes an initial RN visit and evaluation plus the
VNACJ Watch emergency response device. In addition,
VNACJ Watch Over Me provides regular or intermittently scheduled visits from one of our certified home health aides and/or a registered nurse.
Home Health Aide services and hours can be customized based on your needs and offer the added assurance that things are being well taken care of at home. The VNACJ Watch Over Me program can provide you with a well deserved break unencumbered by worry that your loved one is in good hands when you want an evening out, a day's outing or a weekend or vacation week get-away.

- Walking, light exercise

VNACJ-24
Many elderly adults require daily living assistance to maintain their lifestyle but prefer to be at home rather than in an assisted living facility. It may not be possible for families to accommodate this request on their own.
VNACJ-24 can help with 24-hour, round the clock, live-in assistance.
The VNACJ-24 program includes:
- A comprehensive RN visit and evaluation to understand your needs in terms of live-in health care.
- Intermittent RN follow-up visits and regular clinical assessment reports to both the family and personal physician.
- Live-in Care
A specially selected healthcare professional comes to your home ready to assist in all activities of daily living, morning, noon and night. We work with our patients and families to choose just the right individual for your personal needs. VNACJ staff are carefully screened and bonded and must meet strict VNACJ requirements in terms of reliability, personal integrity, a caring nature and experience in caring for the elderly. All home health aides are certified by the NJ State Board of Nursing and work under the direct supervision of a registered nurse.
VNACJ Flex
It's important to maintain some form of regular exercise in daily living for everyday flexibility and balance as we age. In addition, older adults who exercise recover faster after rehabilitative surgery and maintain a more positive outlook on life.
The VNACJ Flex program provides a rehabilitative solution at home.
- An in-home physical/occupational therapy and home safety consultative assessment by one of our licensed rehabilitation therapists
- Personalized in-home rehabilitation program complete with exercise instructions
- Routine one-on-one therapist visits, as requested
