Your sister noticed something was off during the holiday visit to your parent’s home near Butternut Drive. A fall in the bathroom at 2 a.m. that went unreported.

24-Hour Care means a caregiver is in your parent’s home around the clock, awake and present during the day and alert through the night. They’re there for the bathroom visits at 3 a.m., the disorientation that sometimes comes after dark, the fall risk that keeps you up at night. It’s not medical nursing, but it’s the steady presence that makes staying home possible when staying home alone isn’t safe.
Day-to-day, you’ll see a caregiver helping with bathing, dressing, meals, and medications. They’re watching for changes, keeping your parent engaged, and managing the small emergencies before they become big ones. At night, they’re available, awake, and ready if your parent needs help getting to the bathroom or if confusion sets in. Families tell us it’s the thing that finally lets them sleep through the night without their phone in their hand.
After a discharge from Hartford Hospital or a change in your parent’s health, 24-Hour Care gives you a clear path forward without leaving them alone. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand the medical picture, the discharge instructions, and what it really takes to keep someone safe at home. In Rocky Hill and across Hartford County, that foundation changes how we listen and how we match caregivers to what your family actually needs.
Being nurse-founded isn’t just a credential. It means we’ve sat with families at 2 a.m. worried about what happens when their parent gets up in the dark. We know the difference between a caregiver who’s present and one who’s truly alert. That foundation drives every match we make and every conversation we have about keeping your parent safe around the clock.
We don’t assign caregivers randomly. We listen to what your parent’s days actually look like, what they need help with, and what personality fit matters. Our caregivers have experience with 24-Hour Care, which is different from daytime work. They know how to stay alert, how to anticipate needs, and how to handle the isolation that comes with overnight shifts.
Your parent’s needs will shift. A new medication, a decline in mobility, a hospital visit. When that happens, you need someone on the other end of the phone who gets it and who can adjust. We’re here to listen and to adapt your care plan without making you feel like you’re starting over.
We know the discharge process at Hartford Hospital and the rhythm of care across Rocky Hill and the towns around it. We’ve worked with families transitioning from hospital to home. That local knowledge means faster setup, better communication with your parent’s doctors, and a caregiver who understands the community they’re working in.

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 bathing, dressing, grooming, and meals. They remind your parent to take medications and watch for signs of confusion or pain. During the day they're engaged with your parent, keeping them company and noticing changes. At night they're awake and available if your parent needs the bathroom, has questions, or needs reassurance. They're also doing light tidying, helping with laundry, and keeping the house safe for someone who might move around at odd hours.
It depends on what we know about your parent's needs and how quickly we can match a caregiver. If you call us before or right at discharge, we can sometimes have someone in place within 24 to 48 hours. If your parent's needs are straightforward and we have a caregiver available, we move faster. The key is calling us early so we have time to listen and prepare. We work directly with Hartford Hospital's discharge coordinators when families ask us to.
No. 24-Hour Care is private pay, meaning you pay out of pocket. We're honest about this because it matters for your planning. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, or they work with a financial advisor to understand their options. We can't accept Medicare or Medicaid for 24-Hour residential care, but we can talk you through what different levels of care cost and what makes sense for your family's situation.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a day, usually covered by insurance after a medical event, and focuses on specific tasks like bathing or mobility. 24-Hour Care means someone is living in your parent's home, present all day and awake at night. The caregiver's whole role is your parent's safety and comfort around the clock. It's a different kind of work, and it requires caregivers who are trained and experienced in overnight presence, not just daytime tasks.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, their routines, their health needs, and what kind of person will fit into your family's life. We listen to what matters. Then we match a caregiver who has experience with those specific needs and who we think will work well with your parent. The first few days are always an adjustment, and we stay close to help if something isn't working.
We maintain a roster of backup caregivers in Rocky Hill and Hartford County so there's always someone available. If your regular caregiver is sick or needs time off, we have a plan. You won't be left scrambling, and your parent won't lose the continuity of care. We brief the backup caregiver on what your parent needs, and we stay involved until your regular caregiver returns.
