24-Hour Care means a trained caregiver in your parent’s home around the clock, awake and present through the night. We’re here for the falls that happen when nobody’s watching, the medications that need to be taken at odd hours, the bathroom visits at 2 a.m., and the simple reassurance of knowing someone is there if something goes wrong.
A typical day includes morning personal care, meal preparation and supervision, medication reminders, activity and companionship, evening routines, and nighttime monitoring. You’ll see your parent eat regular meals, take their medications on time, stay engaged during the day, and sleep safely at night. The caregiver keeps detailed notes so you know exactly what happened during your shifts away.
Many families in South Windsor come to us right after a parent is discharged from Manchester Memorial Hospital. Our nurse founder built this service because hospital discharges are exactly when families feel most scared and most tired at the same time. Being nurse-founded means we understand medical needs, safety protocols, and the specific gap between hospital care and going home alone.
Our service was built by someone who has managed medical care and understood firsthand why families can’t leave aging parents alone at night. We know what safety actually looks like, and we train every caregiver to watch for the quiet changes that matter.
We don’t just send someone to your home. We meet with you and your parent first, understand their routines and personality, and match a caregiver who fits. Every start includes a detailed briefing so transitions are smooth and your parent feels safe.
Health situations shift fast. You can reach us any time to adjust care, ask questions, or handle unexpected needs. We stay reachable because we know that 24-Hour Care families need someone who actually answers the phone.
We work with South Windsor families and understand the discharge process from Manchester Memorial Hospital. We know your hospitals, your doctors, and your neighborhoods. We’re here, not distant.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A caregiver is present for morning personal care, bathing, dressing, and grooming. Throughout the day they prepare meals, remind about medications, provide companionship and activity, and help with any transfers or mobility needs. Evenings include dinner, evening routines, and getting your parent settled for bed. At night, the caregiver stays awake and alert in the home, ready for bathroom visits, medication needs, or any falls. We keep detailed logs so you see what happened during each shift.
We often can start within days of discharge if you reach out early. The best timing is to contact us while your parent is still in the hospital so we can prepare, meet your parent before they come home, and brief our caregiver on any specific medical needs. If discharge is sudden, we work fast to get someone in place. That transition period right after hospital discharge is exactly when families need us most.
24-Hour Care is private pay, meaning it's not covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or most insurance plans. We're upfront about cost because families deserve to know what they're choosing. The investment covers a trained, experienced caregiver present every single hour, which is different from the limited skilled nursing that insurance typically covers. We can discuss payment options and what this means for your family budget.
Home health aides usually visit for a few hours per week or day, managed by an agency, and focus on specific medical or personal care tasks. 24-Hour Care means one person, consistently in your home, present through all hours including night. The caregiver knows your parent deeply, catches small changes, and is there for both the planned moments and the unexpected ones. It's about constant presence, not scheduled visits.
Yes. We meet with you and your parent to understand their personality, routines, medical needs, and any preferences. Some parents need someone quiet and calm, others want more conversation and activity. We match based on this fit, not just on credentials. If something isn't working, we adjust. The right match makes all the difference in how well this works for everyone.
We have backup coverage so care continues without interruption. If your regular caregiver is sick or needs time off, we assign a trained replacement who is already familiar with your parent or who we brief thoroughly before arrival. You won't wake up wondering if care will happen. We plan for these changes because we know families depend on consistency.
