Logan Outerbridge and Kevin Outerbridge, co-owners of Amada Senior Care of Bergen and Passaic Counties, have more than 35 years of healthcare experience in northern New Jersey. Says Kevin, “People are very protective of their loved ones. While it is certainly understandable to feel that way, it can make the process of choosing an in-home care company more stressful. To ease the stress, we explain exactly what we do that enables us to hire and retain the most skilled, reliable and compassionate caregivers. In addition, we address the financial aspect of in-home care. Specifically, how is this care going to be paid for?”
What Separates Amada from Every Other
Home Care Company?
At Amada Senior Care, we take a consultative approach. As experts in long-term care insurance claims, we assist our clients with the complexities of verifying benefits and submitting claims. We also can determine what benefits may be available through the Veterans Administration for those clients or their spouses who have served in the military. For Private Pay clients, we can enlist the help of a senior care financial adviser to recommend the best payment options for in-home care. If circumstances dictate that a senior housing community is a better alternative than in-home care, we are happy to recommend communities that we have pre-screened by way of an in-person visit.
Choosing the proper home care company for your loved one is something most people are not prepared for. Amada Senior Care of Bergen and Passaic Counties is here to show you the way. You want what’s best for your family …
“… and we understand family.”

My husband and I were introduced to Amada when we began looking for in-home aides and caregiving services. Our first contact was with Logan Outerbridge, who walked us though the services that could be provided for my husband. We have long-term care policies, and Logan expertly reviewed our policy and worked with us to file a successful claim. We were first time users of home care services and had never used or filed a claim before; Logan's expertise was invaluable.
Once aide services began, we were very pleased with the aides we worked with. They were well trained, responsible and reliable. My husband's needs changed and Amada was quickly responsive to his changing needs - more coverage hours, aides that could work with a larger individual, etc. My husband had other in-home services - visiting nurse and physical therapists. All commented to me how good the Amada aides were; a cut above many other services.
To Whom It May Concern:
Amada provided my wife with the best care services based on our needs and convenience.
Because from the top management to their in home providers they are all well trained in their duties, how to communicate all needs & concerns as they arise, in dealing with all aspects of out insurance companies, home providers are chosen also based on personality compatibilities, and everyone is thoroughly professional
This was the care Hubby said he didn't need. First, I must commend Logan, who helped me understand and navigate long-term-care insurance.
Though he tried to send her home the first day, Hubby quickly became reliant upon C., his caregiver. She is not only efficient, but sweet and compassionate, yet firm. She helped encourage him to complete his home rehab exercises each day, encouraging, but insistent. She always got him to comply. What a sweetheart!
Thanks, Amada.
Senior Housing Advising
When seniors or their loved ones begin to feel that they require more support than in-home care and assistance with basic ADLs, it may be time to consider transitioning to an assisted living community.
This is an emotional decision for everyone involved, and our goal at Amada Senior Care in Bergen & Passaic Counties is to guide families through the placement process with wisdom, empathy and competence.
For some seniors, an assisted living community, typically offering non-complex medical services, may be a good fit. Others may require a bit more support and may be better served in a nursing home or different type of care community.
The team at Amada Senior Care Bergen & Passaic Counties has years of experience with senior care in Bergen & Passaic Counties and surrounding cities and communities. As a result, we have deep knowledge of all local care communities and can make sure our clients find the ideal placement to suit their care needs, locations, lifestyles, and budgets.
We also rely on our extensive experience to help our clients make full use of all benefits available to them, including veterans’ benefits and Long-Term Care Insurance benefits. The costs of assisted living may intimidate many families, but we can help them make financial decisions with confidence. To further ease cost concerns, the Amada Bergen & Passaic Counties team is pleased to offer its placement services free of charge.
When in-home care is no longer ideal for our clients, we are honored to guide them through this next phase. Our specialty is referring seniors to the right community or placement for them, which may include:
- Assisted living communities
- Large and small communities
- Independent living communities
- Board and care homes
- Adult family homes
- Senior care homes
- Skilled nursing facilities
- Alzheimer/dementia communities
