Understanding Heart Disease

What families in Monmouth County need to know

Heart disease covers coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and post-cardiac-event recovery. Older adults with heart disease benefit substantially from at-home support that manages daily medication complexity, dietary restrictions, and activity limits.

Monmouth County spans coastal Red Bank to inland Freehold and Marlboro; Hackensack Meridian's Jersey Shore University Medical Center is the flagship. For heart disease care specifically, Monmouth County families benefit from proximity to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, which serves as the county's primary acute-care and discharge-coordination anchor.

Post-hospital discharge coordination: When a Monmouth County senior is discharged after a heart disease-related admission, private-pay home care can typically start within 24-48 hours. Jersey Shore University Medical Center's case management team works directly with local premium home care providers to arrange coverage before the person arrives home.

Care intensity in Monmouth County: Care intensity ranges from 4-8 hours/day for stable outpatients to 24-hour coverage for the first 4 weeks after a cardiac hospitalization or ventricular device placement.

Safety focus: Post-discharge weight gain of 3+ pounds in 3 days signals fluid retention and requires immediate physician contact for CHF patients.
