Your sister noticed something when she visited for Thanksgiving at your parent’s house near Stadley Rough, the kind of thing that doesn’t make sense until it does. Your mom hadn’t showered in days, her medications were scattered, and there was a bruise on her hip she wouldn’t explain. You realized then that you couldn’t keep driving home from work every time something felt off, and your mom couldn’t be alone through another night.

24-Hour Care means someone is there when you can’t be, around the clock. It’s a caregiver who lives in your home or stays overnight, manages medications, watches for falls, handles personal care, prepares meals, and knows what your parent needs at 2 a.m. when confusion or pain hits. You’re not hiring a babysitter or a house cleaner, you’re hiring safety and continuity.
Day to day, you’ll see your parent take medications on time, eat regular meals, stay engaged, and get help getting in and out of bed or the shower without injury. At night, there’s someone there who hears the call bell, knows your parent’s routine, and can tell the difference between a bad dream and a real problem. The caregiver keeps notes so you’re never guessing what happened while you were away.
Danbury families often turn to 24-Hour Care after a hospital stay or fall that scared everyone. If your parent is coming home from Danbury Hospital, we work with their discharge team to understand what they need. We’re nurse-founded, which means we know how to spot changes in your parent’s condition that matter, and we know how to talk to doctors about what we’re seeing on the ground.
Nighttime falls, confusion, and panic are what we’re built for. A nurse founded this agency because she saw families like yours stay awake worrying, and she knew that the right person at 3 a.m. changes everything. We train caregivers to anticipate problems before they become emergencies.
You get to meet your caregiver, and we spend time learning your parent’s specific rhythms, preferences, and health needs before day one. We don’t just send someone warm and friendly, we send someone who knows your parent’s medication schedule, their favorite coffee, and the exact way they need help transferring from the chair.
Your parent’s needs shift, the caregiver gets sick, or you need to adjust the schedule on short notice. You can reach us directly, not a call center. We solve problems the same day, not three days later.
We’re local. We know the neighborhoods from Downtown to King Street corridor, we understand the Danbury Hospital discharge process, and we’re familiar with the doctors and resources around here. That matters when we’re coordinating care or following up on something a physician said.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
Your caregiver is there to manage medication timing and reminders, prepare three meals, assist with bathing and dressing, help with toileting and personal hygiene, monitor for falls or changes in health, provide companionship during the day, and watch over your parent at night. They keep a daily log so you know what happened, how your parent ate, whether they slept, and any concerns that came up. It's hands-on safety, not supervision from the next room.
We can start within 24 to 48 hours in most cases if we have advance notice. If your parent is being discharged from Danbury Hospital, let us know as soon as the hospital social worker mentions a timeline. We'll coordinate with their team, get the discharge paperwork and care plan, and have a caregiver ready to meet your parent when they come home. Urgent situations sometimes move faster.
24-Hour Care is private pay, meaning you pay out of pocket or use long-term care insurance if your parent has it. Medicare covers home health aides for short medical recoveries, but 24-Hour Care for ongoing safety and supervision isn't a Medicare benefit. We can help you understand the costs and timing, and some families use a combination of Medicare home health early on and then transition to 24-Hour Care with us.
A home health aide comes a few hours a week and provides personal care under a doctor's orders, usually while you or another family member is there or nearby. 24-Hour Care means someone is in your home continuously, overnight or full-time, managing all of your parent's daily needs and safety. It's a completely different level of presence and responsibility, and it's right for families who can't leave their parent alone.
Yes. We talk with you and your parent about personality, routine, health conditions, mobility needs, and anything else that matters. We're careful about matching because a good fit makes everything easier. We have caregivers experienced with dementia, mobility challenges, medication management, and the specific rhythm of Danbury families. If the match isn't working after the first week, we can adjust.
We have a backup plan every time. You don't get a surprise cancellation and a scramble to find coverage. We line up a substitute caregiver we've already vetted, and we brief them on your parent's needs before they arrive. Our goal is that your parent never feels the disruption, and you never have to miss work or worry because someone called out.
