Care options in Summit
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.
- Live-in home care
A caregiver lives in the home and helps through the day, with agreed rest time and a night's sleep.
- 24-hour home care
Caregivers work awake shifts, so help is there at any hour of the day or night.
- Overnight care
An awake caregiver for the night hours, so everyone in the house can rest.
- Hourly home care
Help for the hours that are hardest, from a few mornings a week to full days.
Any of these can be companion care, for company, meals, the house, errands, driving and medication reminders, or personal care, which adds hands-on help with bathing, dressing and moving around safely. We also offer memory support at home, help after a hospital stay, and one-to-one hours alongside a residence for someone already living somewhere else, so the attention is theirs rather than divided across a floor.
This is a private arrangement, and discretion is part of what’s being arranged: one caregiver, known to the family, in a house that never starts to look like a facility.

Questions Summit families ask
Can you help when someone comes home from the hospital?
Yes. The return home from the hospital is when many families here first arrange care. We cover it on hours the family sets, not hours a building sets, which usually means somebody present through the first days, then fewer hours as the week steadies. We can plan help around the day your parent comes home: meals, getting settled, rides to follow-up appointments, and someone there through the first nights if that's what's needed. Tell us the expected date and we'll talk through the schedule.
Which office serves Summit?
Our Short Hills office, at 788 Morris Turnpike, Suite 201, Short Hills, NJ 07078, arranges care in Summit, and it holds New Jersey License HP0435100. It anchors coverage across Union, Essex, Morris and Bergen county towns, including this one. Scheduling runs through the Client Support Line at (973) 315-5323. You can start with a call or a short request, and a registered nurse then visits at home in Summit to write the care plan with you.
Do you provide Alzheimer's and dementia care at home here?
Yes, and it is the specialization of this agency. A matched caregiver holds the routine, supports familiar habits, accompanies outings, and supervises the parts of the day that have stopped being safe, so the surroundings stay the ones the person already knows.
Can you keep family who live farther away updated?
Yes. Your Care Manager keeps you posted and adjusts the plan with you as needs change. Tell us who should hear from us and how you'd like to be reached.
How do families pay for home care?
Endurance is private pay and does not bill insurance directly. Families here choose it for the standard of care, for discretion inside the house, and for the continuity of one caregiver matched to the household instead of a rotating roster. Hours are set by the family and rewritten as the household changes. Families with a long-term care insurance policy can use it, and we'll help with the paperwork. Medicare does not pay for ongoing daily help at home.
