24-Hour Care in East Haven, CT
Around-the-clock non-medical care at home, two caregiver shifts covering full day and night.
No sales pressure. We'll tell you straight if we're not a fit.
Your sister noticed it at Thanksgiving, standing in your parent’s kitchen on Momauguin Road. The medications were scattered, the night light unplugged, and when you asked about last Tuesday, your parent couldn’t quite remember. You realized then that you couldn’t keep taking turns anymore, couldn’t keep driving over in the dark, couldn’t keep holding your breath waiting for the call that something had gone wrong.

24-Hour Care means someone is there all day and all night. Not a nurse making visits three times a week. Not a monitoring device on the wall. A real person in your parent’s home, awake when they wake up at 2 a.m., there if they fall getting to the bathroom, watching for the small changes that matter.
A typical day includes help with bathing, dressing, meals, medications, and mobility. Your caregiver catches the things you’d miss. They know your parent’s routines, spot when something’s off, and they’re there during the hours when falls happen most, when confusion sets in, when your parent needs someone steady and calm.
If your parent came home from Yale New Haven Hospital or is aging at home in East Haven, 24-Hour Care fills the gap between discharge and real safety. We’re nurse-founded, which means we built this around what actually keeps people safe at night and during the day, not around what’s easiest to schedule.
A nurse built this agency because she watched families lose sleep and parents lose independence. We know the specific risks of 24-Hour Care, the isolation of the middle-of-the-night moment, what it takes to prevent falls when no one else is awake. That understanding shapes everything we do.
We brief every caregiver on your parent’s medical history, quirks, and needs before they arrive. We listen to what your family is actually worried about, then match someone with the experience and temperament to handle it. One person, consistent, trained to your parent’s specific life.
When your parent gets sick, when medications change, when you notice something off, you reach us directly. We adjust the care plan without making you feel like you’re asking too much. Because with 24-Hour Care, your peace of mind is the whole point.
We know the Yale New Haven Hospital discharge process, the roads around East Haven, and the community. We’re not a national agency with a call center. We’re here, we know the area, and we understand what East Haven families actually need.

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.

Common questions
A caregiver in your parent's home from morning through night, helping with hygiene, dressing, meals, medications, and movement around the house. They're awake during sleeping hours to respond if your parent needs the bathroom, gets confused, or falls. They manage the household routines that matter, keep a log of how your parent is doing, and stay alert for changes. It's constant, present care, not scheduled visits.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours if you contact us right away. If your parent is still in the hospital, we can coordinate with the discharge team, get the medical information we need, and brief your caregiver before they arrive at home. The faster you call, the sooner we can take the worry off your shoulders.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans cover home health aides for specific medical needs, usually part-time. If your parent needs someone there around the clock for safety and peace of mind, that's typically out of pocket. We can discuss costs and help you think through what makes sense for your family.
A home health aide comes for a set number of hours per week, usually ordered by a doctor and covered by insurance, to help with medical tasks. 24-Hour Care is a caregiver in your home all day and night for ongoing safety, support, and company. One is medical and scheduled. The other is constant presence and peace of mind.
Yes. We listen to what your parent is like, what worries you most, and what experience matters. Then we match someone who fits, not just someone available. We brief them thoroughly before they start so they understand your parent's routines, preferences, and any medical things they need to watch for.
We have backup coverage ready. If your regular caregiver is sick or unavailable, we send a trained replacement who's already been briefed on your parent's needs and our care plan. You're not left figuring it out. Consistency matters in 24-Hour Care, and we plan ahead so you don't lose it.
