Home care in Mendham
Your father may not want much help, and that's all right. In Mendham, care can start small, with a few hours that make his week easier, and grow only if he needs it to.
The first conversation is free, and nothing starts until you say so.
Does Endurance Home Care provide home care in Mendham?
Yes. We serve families throughout Mendham Borough from our Short Hills office. Care comes by the hour, awake overnight, live-in or around the clock, as companion care or personal care with hands-on help. A registered nurse visits your father at home first and writes the plan with your family, and you meet the caregiver before the first visit. Help can include memory support at home and medication reminders.
Care options in Mendham
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.
- Hourly careHelp for the hours that are hardest, from a few mornings a week to full days. Easy to add to as needs change.
- Overnight careA caregiver who stays awake through the night hours, there when someone wakes and ready to help them settle again, so everyone in the house gets some rest.
- Live-in careA caregiver lives in the home and helps through the day with meals, routines, company and the house. Agreed rest time, including a night's sleep, is part of the arrangement.
- 24-hour careCaregivers work awake shifts, usually two 12-hour or three 8-hour shifts, so someone is up and ready to help at any hour of the day or night.
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.

MAST, the Mendham area senior transport
MAST, Mendham Area Senior Transportation, takes residents of Mendham Borough and Mendham Township who are 60 and over, and disabled adult residents, to medical appointments and food shopping. A Rider Registration Form has to be on file with the Transportation Office before the first ride, so it's worth filling in early.
MAST doesn't go to or from hospitals or emergency rooms, and it refers passengers who use wheelchairs to the Morris Area Paratransit System. For the trip home from a hospital, or any day MAST doesn't suit, a caregiver can drive your father. Where his doctor or a home health agency already has a plan in place, we build our hours around it.
Mendham Borough and Mendham Township
Mendham Borough and Mendham Township are separate municipalities with the same name, each with its own local government. We serve families in Mendham Borough, and MAST serves residents of both.

Questions Mendham families ask
Will MAST take my father home from the hospital?
No. MAST says it doesn't transport to or from hospitals or emergency rooms. It does go to medical appointments, and a caregiver can drive him home from the hospital.
Do we need to register for MAST?
Yes. A completed Rider Registration Form must be on file with the Transportation Office before he rides. It's easiest to do before you need it.
Why is care arranged in longer shifts here?
Distance. Mendham is rural, with large lots and long private drives, and a one-hour visit with a half-hour drive each way isn't a sensible thing to sell or buy. Cover here comes in longer blocks and fewer of them.
Can we start with a few hours and add more later?
Yes. You can begin with a few hours a week and add time, overnights or live-in care as his needs change. Your Care Manager adjusts the plan with you.
How soon can care start in Mendham?
Tell us when you need help and we'll explain the next steps. It starts with a conversation, then a nurse visit at home, and you meet the caregiver before the first visit.
