24-Hour Care means a caregiver lives in your home or is present around the clock, awake and watching. They’re there at 2 a.m. when your parent needs help to the bathroom. They’re there in the morning to help with dressing, medication, breakfast. They’re there all day and all night, so you can sleep knowing someone is present and alert.
Day-to-day, families see their parent getting help with bathing, dressing, meals, and medications on a steady schedule. They see nighttime falls prevented because someone is awake. They see meals actually cooked and eaten. They see their parent staying in their own home, in their own bed, with someone they trust nearby. The caregiver keeps notes, spots changes early, and calls you with real updates.
Here in Tolland County, many families come to us after a hospital stay at UConn Health Center or after a fall or stroke makes it clear that solo living isn’t safe anymore. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand medical situations, watch for subtle changes, and know how to talk to doctors. We handle the logistics so you can focus on your parent’s recovery and your own peace of mind.
Our founder worked night shifts and saw firsthand what happens when families can’t afford to leave their parent alone. We understand midnight falls, medication mix-ups, and the fear of that phone call at 3 a.m. That’s why we built 24-Hour Care the way we did, with safety first and someone always awake.
We don’t just send someone. We listen to what your parent needs, find a caregiver who fits, and brief them thoroughly on your family’s routines and your parent’s specific worries. Experience matters. We send experienced caregivers, and we prepare them to stay.
If a caregiver gets sick or something comes up, we don’t disappear. You reach us, we solve it. If your parent’s needs shift, we shift with you. You’re not managing a staffing agency. You’re working with people who live here and care about getting it right.
We know Mansfield, Willington, Ashford, and Coventry. We know the roads, we know UConn Health Center’s discharge process, and we know the local doctors. When your parent comes home from the hospital, we’re already familiar with what comes next.

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 helps with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. They prepare and serve meals, manage medications, do light housekeeping, and laundry. They're awake all night, monitoring your parent and helping them to the bathroom or back to bed if they get up. They keep simple notes on how your parent ate, slept, and any concerns, and they call you if something changes. It's presence and help around the clock, not just during business hours.
We can often start within 48 hours of your call. If you're coordinating with UConn Health Center's discharge team, let us know the timeline and we'll work backwards. We understand hospital discharge is urgent. We'll send a caregiver with experience in post-discharge care, briefed on your parent's medical situation and any restrictions the hospital sent home.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans cover home health aide services for specific medical reasons, but around-the-clock in-home caregiving is usually not covered. We can give you clear pricing, and many families find it's less costly than other options. We're honest about what insurance will and won't do, and we work with you on what fits your budget.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a day and focuses on medical or rehabilitation goals set by a doctor. 24-Hour Care means someone is in your home overnight and all day, awake and present, handling daily living help and safety around the clock. It's different because it's continuous, and because we're matching personality and experience to your family, not just filling a medical prescription.
Yes. We listen to what your parent needs, their personality, and what matters most to your family. We have caregivers with experience in dementia, fall prevention, post-stroke recovery, medication management, and more. We take time to find the right fit, not just the first available person. A good match makes 24-Hour Care work.
We cover it. If your caregiver gets sick or has an emergency, we send a trained backup so there's no gap. We brief our backup on your parent's needs and routines. Your parent's safety doesn't take a day off, and neither do we.
