Comparisons between Newark’s median nursing home fee of $12,471 with the state midpoint of $11,254 and the country’s $7,908 reveal the city to be at the costliest end of the spectrum. However, it’s worth remembering that Newark is part of the New York metro area. Cost differences between Newark and other New Jersey cities vary greatly. For example, Trenton’s seniors pay around $11,650, which is at the higher end, while Vineland’s pay a slightly below-average $11,026. Ocean City and Atlantic City residents pay much less at approximately $10,007 and $9,125, respectively.

A standard semiprivate room in a Newark nursing home costs about $12,471 per month. A private room is costlier at around $13,231.
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Adult day care is Newark’s most affordable option with fees in the region of $1,950. Home care is a nonmedical service delivered one-on-one, which explains the fees of around $5,529. Home health care is the medical equivalent, which also explains why it typically costs an additional $191 per month. Assisted living facilities deliver similar services to home care but include accommodation and meals, resulting in a median fee of $5,750. The midpoint for a semiprivate room in a nursing home is $12,471 versus $13,231 for a private one.

Newark seniors don’t need to cope with problems on their own as there are several government agencies and nonprofits able to provide assistance for free. This list includes a few of them. They can help families who are unhappy with the quality of their loved one’s nursing home care, provide quality legal support, deliver healthy meals and determine if Medicaid can pay some or all nursing home costs.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Meals on Wheels | (302) 737-5747 | Newark Senior Center's Meals on Wheels program delivers freshly prepared and nutritionally balanced meals to homebound seniors throughout the city on weekdays. Drivers also make wellness checks at the time of delivery. Although meals are free, the center accepts donations to cover some costs. |
| New Jersey Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (877) 582-6995 | The Long-Term Care Ombudsman advocates for seniors residing in nursing homes and their families. Its ombudsmen are volunteers trained to educate seniors about their rights in residential care and investigate their complaints. Ombudsmen attempt to resolve issues through negotiation but occasionally refer cases to relevant authorities when necessary. |
| Essex County Senior Services | (973) 395-8375 | Essex County Senior Services administers many programs developed to assist older residents, including programs for seniors who are in need of nursing home care but have yet to transfer to a facility. The department can also arrange in-home programs for seniors who are at risk of nursing home placement. Additionally, it can refer seniors and families to Medicaid for help with nursing home costs. |
| Essex-Newark Legal Services | (973) 624-4500 | Essex-Newark Legal Services provides free advice and representation to Newark residents aged 60 and older who can't afford an attorney. The service covers civil law cases only, so it can't assist with criminal matters. However, it can support seniors who are dealing with various issues, such as medical decision powers, wills, bankruptcy, debts and guardianship. |
| Newark Veterans Services Regional Office | (973) 297-3230 | U.S. military veterans and their spouses can get help from the Newark Regional VA Office if they aren't receiving the state and federal benefits they're entitled to. The office can also help vets with their applications for VA Aid and Attendance, which can cover some nursing home costs. They can also help vets apply for the Homebound Allowance. |
