Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
24-Hour Care means someone trained is in your parent’s home around the clock, awake and present. Not a camera, not a device. A real person who watches for falls, catches missed medications, knows how to respond when something changes at 3 a.m. It’s the difference between hoping nothing goes wrong and knowing someone is there if it does.
Day to day, you’ll see your parent getting help with bathing, dressing, meals, and medications on schedule. Your caregiver handles light housekeeping, watches for confusion or changes in mood or appetite, and keeps their hands steady if balance becomes shaky. You sleep knowing someone is listening. You can go to work. You can live your own life again.
In Deep River, families often come to us right after discharge from Middlesex Hospital, when the fear of what happens at home is highest. We’re nurse-founded, which means our caregivers are trained by someone who’s spent years in hospital settings and knows what real safety looks like in a bedroom, a bathroom, and a kitchen at midnight. We know the Middlesex Hospital discharge process and we’re ready on day one.
Our founder spent years in hospitals watching families face the moment they had to take their parent home. She knows what keeps you awake: nighttime falls, medication confusion, the parent who won’t ask for help. We build 24-Hour Care around those real fears, not a checklist.
You tell us what matters: does your parent need someone quiet or someone who talks? Early riser or night owl? We listen, and we wait for the right fit. When your caregiver starts, you already know them a little. There’s no surprise on day one.
Your parent gets sick. A medication changes. You need something adjusted at midnight. You call us and reach a person, not a voicemail. We shift schedules, we problem-solve, we don’t make you figure it out alone.
We work with Middlesex Hospital on discharge plans. We understand what Deep River families need because we’re local. We know Main Street, Chester Road, and the neighborhoods where our clients live. That matters when you need someone fast.

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 helps with dressing, bathing, toileting, and all meals. They give medications on time. They watch for falls, changes in mood or appetite, confusion, or pain. They do light cleaning and laundry. They're awake at night and respond if your parent needs help. You set the daily routine together at the start, and we adjust as things change.
If you call us before discharge, we can often start the same day or the next morning. Middlesex Hospital's discharge team can coordinate with us directly. If you're calling from home, we'll do a brief phone assessment and get someone there as fast as we can match the right person. In most cases, that's within 48 hours.
No. 24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare covers limited skilled nursing or home health aide hours, but not around-the-clock care. We work with families on rates and scheduling. Many families find that the cost of 24-Hour Care is far less than assisted living or a nursing home, and your parent gets to stay home.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a week or a few hours a day, usually ordered by a doctor and covered by Medicare. 24-Hour Care means someone is there all day and all night, every day. It's continuous, not episodic. You're not waiting for someone to show up. Someone is already there.
Yes. We ask you detailed questions about your parent: their personality, their routines, what they need, what they're worried about. We listen for fit, not just availability. We want your caregiver to know your parent and your parent to feel safe with them. That takes a little time up front, but it's worth it.
We always have backup. If your regular caregiver is sick or needs time off, we bring in someone we've trained and vetted. We don't leave you without coverage. You'll meet backups early on so there are no surprises. And we call you to confirm who's coming, always.
