If getting to a clinic is hard right now, a licensed Holsman therapist can come to your home in Glen Ridge (Essex County) instead. Medicare Part B accepted, no homebound requirement, and no referral needed to start.
The closest Holsman clinic to Glen Ridge is Bloomfield at 44 Park St., Bloomfield, roughly 1 mile away (973-685-2335), and our Newark clinic is about 2 miles away. Many patients start at home and switch to one of these clinics once they’re ready to drive.
Mountainside Medical Center sits right on the Glen Ridge border, and patients going home from there can start therapy in their own home. Older residents often want to get back to programs at the Senior/Community Center in the historic train station on Ridgewood Avenue, or to the Glen Ridge Public Library on the same street.
At home, your therapist works on the things that matter in your own space: getting in and out of bed and the car, managing your stairs, walking safely on the routes you use every day, and setting up the bathroom and kitchen to prevent falls. Common reasons Glen Ridge patients start in-home therapy include recovery after a hip or knee replacement, a fall or balance problem, a stroke or Parkinson’s disease, and weakness after a hospital stay.

No referral is needed to start. Under New Jersey’s Direct Access law you can begin physical therapy without a prescription. Within 30 days of your first treatment, we send a written progress update to your physician or another licensed health care professional you choose, even if you’re improving. For Medicare, your physician or nurse practitioner signs off on your plan of care, and we coordinate that for you. Some insurance plans have their own referral rules, so we verify your coverage before the first visit.
No. Our in-home therapy is billed under Medicare Part B as outpatient therapy, which has no homebound requirement. Homebound status applies to home health agency care under Part A, which is a different service.
