About Unicity Care Management
Most families end up coordinating a loved one's care on their own, between doctors, hospitals and home care. Unicity Care Management's nurses and social workers assess your loved one, coordinate their care and stay involved, so your family knows what's happening and what comes next.
We started in 2010 because families kept facing the same gap.
When an older adult's health changes, the decisions come fast: hospital discharge, home care, assisted living, memory care. Each provider handles its own part. Families benefit from one professional who helps them see how the parts fit together.
Gregory Brun founded Unicity Care Management to fill that role. Since then, the team has grown from northern New Jersey to nine New Jersey counties, two counties in South Florida and Rockland County, New York.
The model hasn't changed. A Registered Nurse or Licensed Social Worker assesses your loved one and writes a plan with your family. Today, every client has a primary and a secondary care manager, one Registered Nurse and one Licensed Social Worker, who stay involved as needs change.
Guidance centered on you and your family
Our recommendations are based on what we believe will best meet each person's needs, preferences and budget.
Our role is to assess needs, recommend options that fit your loved one and oversee how the plan is carried out.
- Assess health, memory, home safety and daily routine
- Write individual care plans with the family
- Coordinate with doctors and other providers
- Manage moves between hospital, rehab, home and senior living
- Stay involved and speak up for your loved one over time
Our core principles
Clear about fees
Placement Services are free to families. When a client moves into a community we recommend, the community pays Unicity Care Management a placement fee.
Careful assessments
Every client starts with a full assessment by a Registered Nurse or Licensed Social Worker.
Accountability
Families know who is responsible for each part of the plan, and we follow through on our part.
Continuity of care
Moves between hospital, rehab, home and senior living are when things get missed. We stay involved through each one.
Honest advocacy
We speak up for your loved one while keeping good working relationships with their doctors and providers.
Measured growth
As we grow into new areas, every family gets the same assessment, the same process and the same level of oversight.
We help families make well-informed decisions about care, and we stay involved as needs change.
Health systems are more spread out than they used to be, and so are families. Many of our clients' families live in another state, or split time between New Jersey and Florida. Our job is to be the steady, local point of contact for the family, wherever they are.

Registered Nurses and Licensed Social Workers
Unicity Care Management hires only Registered Nurses and Licensed Social Workers. Each care manager brings a wide range of experience from hospitals, home care, senior living and community health, and every assessment is conducted by one of them.
Care managers work at the county level, so they know the local hospitals, home care agencies and senior living communities. Each client works with a primary and a secondary care manager who stay involved as needs evolve.
