Home Care in Fairfield, Connecticut
If you are two trains away, someone here is five minutes away.

American Community Survey, 2023 five year estimates.
Endurance covers the town out of the Stamford office. The care is daily-living the whole way through: a caregiver supports, accompanies, reminds, supervises, and coordinates, and nobody diagnoses, treats, or assesses. In a typical week that usually looks like a ride across town, a load of laundry, a prompt when a medication is due, and somebody within earshot for the long stretch of afternoon that used to be the hard part.
The same registration and the same office cover home care across Fairfield County.
What care in the home covers
Schedules run by the hour, overnight, around the clock, and live in. Inside them the work is companion care, personal care at home, homemaking, memory support at home, transportation, medication reminders, and safety supervision. A household usually starts with one of those and adds another when the shape of the week changes.
The part families tend to notice is what happens after week one. Endurance Home Care provides care at home in Connecticut and New Jersey, with companion care only in New York. Skilled nursing, home health aides and physical therapy in Connecticut are provided by Endurance Home Health.
A customized monthly assessment
The care plan is reviewed and rewritten every month, so the arrangement on paper stays the arrangement the household actually wants.
A wellness program
It runs alongside the schedule rather than replacing any of it.
Coordination of medical care
The appointments, the calendar, and the communication around them. Endurance coordinates. It does not provide medical care.
Where a week here actually goes
Staying home does not mean staying in the house. These are the town rooms a week tends to run through, and a caregiver can drive to any of them, stay for the hour, and pick the day back up at home.

Two trains away
Inbound
- Stations in town
- Three
- Line
- Metro-North New Haven
- Inbound terminus
- Grand Central
The town has three train stations on the Metro-North line that runs from New Haven to Grand Central Terminal. It is the reason so many households here have children who visit often and still miss the ordinary week in between.
“Whenever we need anything they have a solution.”
Published family review
What fills the gap
Caregiver updates: what got eaten, who called, how the stairs went on Tuesday. Neighboring towns run the same way, so families comparing options often look at care in Westport and care for Norwalk families alongside this one.
Starting care here
One call to the Client Support Line, a consultation, then a caregiver matched to the household. You can begin with a few hours a week and change the schedule as the need changes.
Endurance was started by two brothers, Chris and Tom Weldon, after looking after their own grandmother, who was living with dementia. That is where the agency began.
