24-Hour Care in Haddam, 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 visits from out of state and finds your dad asleep in his chair at 2 p.m., his medication still on the kitchen counter from this morning. The fall he had last month near the Haddam Town Hall parking lot comes back to you both, and you realize you can’t keep doing this alone. That’s when you start looking for someone who can actually be there, every hour, every night.

24-Hour Care means a caregiver is in your home around the clock, awake and present for nighttime falls, medication reminders, bathroom assistance, and the simple fact that your parent isn’t alone. It’s not a hospital bed or medical equipment, it’s a person there when you can’t be.
Day to day, you’ll see someone helping with bathing, meals, dressing, toileting, light housekeeping, and monitoring for changes in your parent’s health or mood. At night, they’re alert and nearby, which means fewer falls going unreported, fewer middle-of-the-night emergencies, and you can finally sleep knowing someone qualified is watching.
If your parent was recently discharged from Middlesex Hospital or is recovering at home in any of Haddam’s neighborhoods, we understand the transition. Our agency was founded by a nurse, so we know what safe overnight care actually looks like, not just what it sounds like on paper.
We started this because a nurse saw families trying to manage overnight care without enough knowledge or support. We know the difference between a warm body in the house and someone trained to spot a stroke, a fall, or a medication mistake at 3 a.m.
We don’t just send whoever’s available. We listen to what your family actually needs, match a caregiver who fits, brief them thoroughly on your parent’s routines and red flags, and prioritize continuity so your parent isn’t meeting someone new every week.
24-Hour Care isn’t static. If your parent’s needs shift, if the caregiver can’t make a shift, or if you have questions at midnight, you reach us directly. We stay reachable because we know this work doesn’t stop at 5 p.m.
We know Haddam and the towns around you, East Hampton, Killingworth, Chester, and Deep River. We know the Middlesex Hospital discharge process and the caregivers who understand local geography and community resources.

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
A caregiver helps with personal care, dressing, bathing, meals, medication reminders, and light housekeeping during the day. At night, they remain awake and alert, available immediately if your parent needs to use the bathroom, has a fall, feels confused, or experiences any health change. They also monitor for signs of decline and report anything new to you or your parent's doctor.
We can often start within a few days, depending on availability and the briefing your parent's situation requires. If you're planning a discharge, call us as soon as you have a date. We'll connect with the hospital social worker if needed and make sure your caregiver understands your parent's medical status and any post-discharge instructions.
24-Hour Care is private pay, not typically covered by Medicare or standard insurance plans. We're honest about the cost because we want you to make a clear decision. Some families use long-term care insurance, personal savings, or family contributions. We can discuss options with you directly.
A home health aide visits for scheduled hours, usually through a medical referral, and focuses on post-recovery tasks. 24-Hour Care means someone lives in your home, providing continuous presence and safety oversight. The difference is enormous at night, when emergencies don't wait for the next scheduled visit.
Yes. We talk with you and your parent about personality, routine, medical needs, and any preferences. Then we match someone whose experience and temperament fit. We don't rush this part because the right fit makes everything easier for your family.
We have backup coverage. You'll know immediately if there's a change, and we work hard to minimize disruption. If your regular caregiver is out, we send someone trained and briefed on your parent's routine. It's not perfect, but it beats scrambling on your own at midnight.
