24-Hour Care means we’re there through the night and the full day, watching for falls, handling medications on schedule, making sure your parent eats and takes their walker to the bathroom. It’s someone in the home around the clock, alert and trained, so you can finally sleep without your phone next to your pillow.
On a typical day, your caregiver assists with dressing, bathing, meals, and mobility. They keep track of medication times, watch for signs of infection or confusion, and help your parent stay steady when they move around the house. At night, they’re awake and nearby, ready if your parent needs to get up or if something doesn’t feel right.
Many Beacon Falls families come to us after a discharge from Griffin Hospital, when the doctor says your parent shouldn’t live alone but home is where they need to be. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand the medical side of aging and we don’t treat safety like something you can cut corners on. We’ve been the person on night shift, and we build our teams that way.
Our founder was a nurse. She knows that 3 a.m. is when most falls happen, when a parent gets up confused and doesn’t reach for the walker. We train our caregivers to prevent that moment before it happens, and we stay calm when it does.
We don’t send a rotation of strangers. We learn your parent’s habits, fears, and what helps them feel safe. Our caregivers have experience with the exact situations you’re worried about, and we brief them fully before day one.
If something changes, you don’t have to figure it out alone. We’re available to talk through concerns, adjust care, or answer the questions that come up at 2 a.m. You have a real person to call, not a voicemail.
We’re local to Beacon Falls and the surrounding towns. We understand the discharge process from Griffin, we know your doctors and the hospitals, and we’ve helped dozens of New Haven County families make this transition.

Why families choose us
Every aide is trained and supervised through an RN’s lens — not just placed and forgotten.
Personality fit matters more than skill on paper. We match for temperament, pace, and patience.
No franchise rotation. You work with the people who run this agency — direct, accessible, accountable.
Most families are matched with a caregiver within 24 to 48 hours. When something shifts at home, we move quickly.
We build a daily structure around your parent’s rhythm — meals, walks, evenings — and protect it.
You hear from us, not just the aide. Updates on appetite, sleep, mood, mobility — the things that matter.
Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they're ever placed in a home.
Why families trust us
Private Duty Aides is nurse-founded. Every caregiver clears a multi-step screening — a background check, reference checks, and an in-person interview with our RN founder — before they are ever placed in a home. You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
Your caregiver is present during waking hours for meals, bathing, dressing, bathroom help, medication reminders, and keeping your parent engaged. At night, they're awake in the home, monitoring for falls or medical changes, helping with bathroom trips, and staying alert. We also handle light tidying, preparing meals, and coordinating with doctors when needed. The goal is safety and dignity, every hour.
We can often start within days of discharge if you contact us right away. We work with the hospital's care coordinator to understand your parent's specific needs and what the doctors want monitored. If Griffin recommends 24-Hour Care before your parent comes home, we can have a briefed caregiver ready on arrival day.
24-Hour Care is private pay in most cases because Medicare typically covers skilled nursing or rehabilitation, not live-in safety care. We're transparent about cost from the start. Many families use a combination of resources, including long-term care insurance if they have it. We can discuss options with you.
A home health aide usually comes a few hours a day and is ordered by a doctor for a specific medical need. 24-Hour Care means someone is in your home around the clock for safety and daily living support, whether or not there's a medical order. If your parent lives alone and can't be unsupervised, 24-Hour Care is what keeps everyone safe.
Yes. We listen first to what you're most worried about, your parent's personality, and any medical or behavioral patterns we need to know. We then match a caregiver with the right experience and temperament. We do a trial period to make sure it's a fit, and we make adjustments if needed.
We don't leave you without coverage. We have backup caregivers trained and briefed on your parent's needs so transitions are smooth. We notify you as soon as we know about any change and we make sure the backup knows your parent's routine, medications, and any safety concerns. Consistency matters, but reliability matters more.
