Does Endurance Home Care provide home care in Far Hills?
Yes. Endurance Home Care serves families throughout Far Hills from our Short Hills office. Care can be hourly, awake overnight, live-in or around the clock, as companion care or as personal care with hands-on help. A registered nurse visits first to write the care plan with you, and you meet the caregiver before the first visit. Help can include memory support at home and medication reminders.
Care options in Far Hills
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.

Company, and a reason to get out
Far Hills is small and spread out, and the borough doesn't run its own senior programs. Somerset County's Senior Wellness Center at 202 Mount Airy Road in Basking Ridge is open on weekdays with lunch served.
A caregiver can make regular outings part of the week: a drive to the center, lunch out, the shops, appointments. Then company and help at home when they're back.
The arrangement that tends to work here addresses the week rather than the body: a standing commitment that gets your parent out of a large, quiet house on a regular rhythm. Where their doctor or a home health agency already has a plan in place, we build our hours around it.

Questions Far Hills families ask
Where is the nearest senior center?
Somerset County's Senior Wellness Center at 202 Mount Airy Road in Basking Ridge, open on weekdays with lunch served.
Our house is easy to get around. What kind of help would make sense?
Often it's company and getting out: regular visits, a drive to the shops or the senior center, meals together. A standing arrangement that gets them out of the house is normally worth more here than hours spent in it. We'll talk through what your parent enjoys and plan from there.
Can we start with a few hours and add more later?
Yes. You can start with a few visits 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 parent has a long-term care insurance policy, we can help with the policy paperwork. Medicare doesn't pay for ongoing daily help at home.
