24-Hour Care in Monroe, 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 called after the holidays and said something felt off. Your parent seemed more forgetful, moving slower, hesitant on the stairs of the house on Cutler Road where they’ve lived for thirty years. A fall at three in the morning, or a medication skipped because no one was there to remind them, changes everything. If you can’t be there all night, every night, 24-Hour Care is what Monroe families choose.

24-Hour Care means a caregiver is in your parent’s home around the clock, overnight and day. They’re there for the falls that happen at two a.m., the confusion at dinner time, the medication that needs to go in at the right moment, the bathroom visit at midnight when the light goes on and someone is present. It’s safety that doesn’t pause.
On a typical day, you’ll see your caregiver helping with bathing, dressing, meals, and mobility. They’re keeping an eye on vital signs, noting changes, staying alert during the hours when your parent is most vulnerable. They’re also there for conversation, for the small steady presence that lets your parent stay home instead of moving to a facility.
Many families come to us after a stay at St. Vincent’s Medical Center here in Bridgeport, when discharge happens and you realize your parent can’t be alone yet. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand what post-hospital care actually demands: observation, quick thinking, and someone who knows when to call the doctor. We built 24-Hour Care because we lived this ourselves.
Being nurse-founded means we’ve seen what happens when no one is there at three a.m. We know how to set up your parent’s bedroom, bathroom, and home to prevent the falls that change everything. We also know how to respond if one happens, and when to call for help.
We don’t just send someone over. We brief our caregivers on your parent’s specific routines, fears, and needs. Then we match the right person to your family, someone who fits, and we stand behind that choice with experience.
When your parent’s needs shift, or when you notice something that worries you, you reach us and we listen. Changes happen in 24-Hour Care situations, and we adjust without delay or frustration.
We know the discharge process at St. Vincent’s Medical Center. We work with your parent’s doctors and therapists here. We understand Monroe neighborhoods, Trumbull, Newtown, and Shelton. That local knowledge matters when someone’s safety is on the line.

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 handles personal care like bathing, dressing, and grooming. They prepare meals, help with eating, and manage toileting and incontinence care. They assist with mobility, transfers, and walking. They also watch for changes in health, keep the home safe, administer medications as needed, and provide companionship during evening and overnight hours when your parent is most vulnerable to falls and confusion.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge if the need is clear. Talk to your hospital discharge planner and call us at the same time. We'll coordinate directly with St. Vincent's to get your parent's medical information and orders. The faster you reach out, the faster we can have someone in your home and your parent safer.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance cover intermittent home health, not around-the-clock care. We work with families who can afford this level of support, and we're transparent about cost from the first conversation. Many families find that keeping their parent home with 24-Hour Care costs less than a facility, and it's the choice their parent actually wants.
Home health aides typically come a few hours a day, a few days a week, and are usually ordered by a doctor for post-hospital recovery. 24-Hour Care means someone is in your home overnight and day, every day, for ongoing safety and support. It's designed for parents who can't be alone, who need supervision at all hours, and who have the means to arrange it. The presence is constant.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, habits, medical needs, and what time of day is hardest. We listen to what your family needs too. Then we match someone with the right experience and temperament, not just the first available person. If it's not working after a week, we make a change. The fit matters.
We have backup coverage so your parent is never left alone. We notify you as soon as we know there's a change, and we send a trained substitute who's been briefed on your parent's routine and needs. We don't scramble or leave gaps. Your parent's safety and your peace of mind depend on continuity, and we plan for that.
