Serving South Jersey’s Growing Senior Population

South Jersey’s senior population continues to grow as suburban communities mature and baby boomers age. Understanding local demographics helps us better serve families across the region:

  • 84,000+ seniors in Camden County: Approximately 16.4% of Camden County’s 513,657 residents are age 65 and older
  • 14,400+ seniors in Cherry Hill: About 19.28% of Cherry Hill’s 74,553 residents are 65 or older, one of the highest percentages in South Jersey
  • 1.25 million metro residents: The Camden metropolitan division (Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester counties) serves over 1.2 million people
  • 475,500+ in Burlington County: New Jersey’s largest county by land area has substantial hospice care needs
  • Median age 39.1 years: Camden County’s median age indicates a significant portion approaching retirement
  • Suburban aging in place: Communities like Voorhees, Mount Laurel, Haddonfield, and Moorestown have established senior populations choosing to remain in their homes

Our South Jersey team understands the values of families in the greater Philadelphia metro area. Many prefer to keep loved ones at home during end-of-life, and we work hard to honor that choice with professional, compassionate care.

Understanding South Jersey’s Unique Hospice Care Needs

Providing hospice care in South Jersey comes with distinct considerations that shape how we serve families:

Philadelphia Metro Connection

South Jersey communities are deeply tied to Philadelphia, located just across the Delaware River. Many families have roots in both states, commute to Philadelphia for work, and value the access to world-class healthcare systems. Our team works seamlessly with Philadelphia-area hospitals and specialists to coordinate care.

Suburban Diversity

From historic towns like Haddonfield and Moorestown to newer suburban developments in Mount Laurel and Marlton, South Jersey offers diverse housing options. We provide hospice care across all settings, from single-family homes to apartments, assisted living facilities to nursing homes.

Cultural and Religious Diversity

South Jersey is home to strong Jewish communities (particularly in Cherry Hill), Catholic populations, diverse Protestant congregations, and growing South Asian communities. We respect varying traditions around death, dying, and mourning. Our team includes chaplains who honor all faith backgrounds and work alongside local religious leaders.

Strong Italian-American Heritage

Many South Jersey families have Italian-American backgrounds, with distinct traditions around family care, food, and end-of-life gatherings. We respect the importance of family involvement and honor cultural preferences around mealtimes, visitors, and memorial practices.

Four-Season Climate

New Jersey’s seasonal weather, including cold winters and hot summers, can impact health and mobility. Home-based hospice care eliminates transportation challenges during snow, ice, or extreme heat, allowing families to focus on what matters most.

Established Communities, Aging in Place

Many South Jersey suburbs were developed in the 1950s-1980s, and original residents are now reaching senior age. These communities have strong neighborhood bonds, and families want to keep loved ones in familiar surroundings. Our local team helps make aging in place possible during end-of-life.

PATCO and Commuter Culture

Many South Jersey families work in Philadelphia via PATCO or bridge commutes. Adult children often juggle demanding careers with caregiving responsibilities. Home-based hospice provides essential support for families balancing work and end-of-life care.

Education and Healthcare Excellence

South Jersey families value quality education and healthcare. They ask informed questions and want providers who respect their knowledge. Our team welcomes questions and works collaboratively with families who want to understand care plans and participate in decision-making.
