READ MOREThe 2018 Genworth Cost of Care study reveals that assisted living in Bridgewater costs $7,230 per month, which is over $3,200 more costly than the national average ($4,000), almost $1,200 above the state median rate of $6,065 and over $2,100 more than the average monthly price in Atlantic City ($5,100). As the most expensive area in New Jersey, the rate in Bridgewater is more than $2,400 higher than the price in Ocean City, which has the state’s lowest assisted living cost at $4,800 per month.
Note: Data for senior care costs wasn’t available for Bridgewater, so data for nearby Trenton was used instead.

The monthly cost of senior care in Bridgewater varies drastically, from a low of $1,842 per month for adult day health services provided in a group setting to $10,342 for round-the-clock skilled nursing and other specialized care services provided in a nursing home. Assisted living averages $7,230 per month and includes housekeeping services, personal care assistance, meals and housing. In-home care provided by home health aides and homemakers costs an average of $4,576 per month but only represents the hours of care services delivered. Expenses normally covered by room and board in residential facilities, such as utilities, maintenance, food and property taxes, remain the responsibility of the senior homeowner in addition to the rate for care services. These added costs can significantly narrow the price gap between in-home and assisted living care.

Medicaid is a national program that delivers basic health care to over 65 million Americans who can’t afford to pay for health insurance. The program is jointly funded and regulated by the federal government and administered by each state.
In New Jersey, the program is called NJ FamilyCare and is overseen by the Department of Human Services. It serves the health care needs of more than 1.5 million state residents, including families with dependent children, expectant mothers, senior citizens and those who are blind or disabled. Residents who qualify receive a number of health care benefits, such as:
State Supplemental Payment
Bridgewater residents who meet the income and asset requirements for Supplemental Security Income benefits may also be eligible for an increased monthly cash payment from the state of New Jersey.
To qualify, seniors aged 65 or older and adults with disabilities must have a monthly income of $771 or less per person ($1,157 for couples) and no more than $2,000 in assets ($3,000 for couples).
The amount of the monthly State Supplemental Payment depends on an applicant’s living arrangement, income and marital status. The maximum available combined SSI and SSP benefit is $981.05 for individuals and $1,895.36 for couples.
To learn more or apply for SSI and NJ SSP benefits, interested seniors can contact the Social Security Administration at (800) 772-1213.
Congregate Housing Services Program
Seniors and disabled adults with limited income who are at risk of nursing home placement if they don’t receive aid may qualify for the New Jersey Congregate Housing Services program. This assistance program helps cover the cost of shelter in state-contracted congregate housing facilities as well as support services, such as:
Bridgewater Township offers a wealth of life-enriching programs for older residents at the local senior citizens center. Area seniors can enjoy nutritious congregate lunches, socialize over card and board games; join Pilates, aerobics or tai chi classes; or take computer, photography and cooking lessons.
There are nutrition and wellness classes; seminars on topics, such as financial planning and safe driving; monthly movie nights; and group outings to restaurants, flea markets and plays.
