Does Endurance Home Care provide home care in West Orange?

Yes. We serve families throughout West Orange from our office at 788 Morris Turnpike in Short Hills, with care by the hour, awake overnight, live-in or around the clock. That can be companion care, personal care with hands-on help, or memory support at home. A registered nurse visits first to write the care plan with you, you meet the caregiver before the first visit, and your Care Manager keeps you posted.

Care options in West Orange

In-home senior care for the days, the nights, or both

Some families need a few hours a week. Others want someone there overnight, or living in. Here's what each option looks like at home.

Any of these can be companion care, which covers company, meals, light housekeeping, errands and rides, or personal care, which adds hands-on help with bathing, dressing and moving around safely. See how live-in care and 24-hour care differ.

Towns near West Orange

West Orange's senior transportation program

The township's Department of Senior Services runs a Senior Citizen Transportation Program for older residents. The township doesn't publish a booking window for it, so call the department to ask how trips are arranged.

A caregiver can fill in around it, with rides to appointments, errands and visits whenever the program's schedule doesn't fit.

'The hills are more of a problem than anything medical' is the most common opening we hear in West Orange. A caregiver who drives turns a quarter mile uphill into a non-issue, which brings back errands, appointments and company. Most West Orange arrangements we set up are built around specific hours at specific times rather than a total, and the gradient outside the door usually decides which hours those are.

Coming home after a hospital stay

If your wife is coming home after a hospital stay, we can plan help around the day she comes home, including the first nights if you'd like someone there. We cover the daily living side of the return home: getting the house ready, the first nights, meals, routine and rides to follow-ups. As she gets stronger, your Care Manager adjusts the hours with you.

Credentials and recognition

Questions West Orange families ask

Does West Orange have senior transportation?

Yes. The township's Department of Senior Services runs a Senior Citizen Transportation Program. It doesn't publish a booking window, so call the department to ask how to arrange a trip.

Can you help when my wife comes home from the hospital?

Yes. Tell us the date and what the first days at home will need, and we'll plan the hours around it, from a few hours a day to someone there overnight.

Can we start with a few hours and add more later?

Yes. You can start with a few mornings or evenings a week and add hours, overnights or live-in care as needs change. Your Care Manager adjusts the plan with you.

How do families pay for home care?

Care with Endurance is private pay. If your wife has a long-term care insurance policy, we can help with the policy paperwork. Medicare doesn't pay for ongoing daily help at home.

Do you cover all of West Orange?

Yes, from Main Street up through Pleasantdale, Gregory, Redwood and the streets off Eagle Rock. The real difference between them is grade and parking, not whether we go there.
