24-Hour Care in Torrington, 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 noticed something wasn’t right during the holiday visit to your parents’ house on East Main Street, near the library. Your mom had fallen twice in the night, but your dad hadn’t called anyone because he was exhausted and didn’t want to worry you. You realized then that you couldn’t keep managing this alone, that your parent needed someone there when you couldn’t be.

24-Hour Care means a trained caregiver is in your parent’s home around the clock, awake and alert through the night. We’re talking about someone who’s there for bathroom visits at 2 a.m., who notices a fall before it becomes an injury, who checks that medications were actually taken, and who knows your parent’s routine well enough to catch when something’s off.
On a typical day, your caregiver handles personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housework, and company. At night, they’re positioned to respond quickly to falls, confusion, or medical changes. You sleep knowing someone is there, someone who’s trained and someone who cares about what happens.
If your parent has recently been discharged from Charlotte Hungerford Hospital or is managing a condition that requires nighttime monitoring, 24-Hour Care bridges that gap between hospital safety and going home alone. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand medical changes, hospital discharge protocols, and what it actually takes to keep someone safe when their body needs more attention. We’ve been through it ourselves.
We know what nighttime falls look like, how quickly things can change, and what questions you should be asking. Our founder has managed around-the-clock care situations and trained caregivers to recognize when a parent needs immediate attention. That experience is built into how we match and support every caregiver.
We don’t just send someone over. We listen to what your parent actually needs, who they are, what their day looks like. We match carefully, then we stay in the picture, checking in, adjusting when things need to change, making sure the fit is right.
24-Hour Care situations aren’t static. A new medication, a hospital visit, a change in mood or appetite, or just a day when your parent needs different support. We answer when you call, and we know how to adjust without disrupting what’s working.
We’re local to Litchfield County. We understand the Charlotte Hungerford Hospital discharge process, we know the neighborhoods where our families live, and we can coordinate quickly with local doctors and facilities when you need us to.

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 is present from the morning through the night, awake and alert. They help with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and all personal care. They prepare meals, manage medications, remind your parent to take what they need, do light housework, and provide company. At night, they're available immediately for bathroom visits, falls, or any change. They keep a log so you and any medical providers know what's happening.
We can move fast. If you call us before or right after discharge, we'll get your parent's information, understand what the hospital recommended, and start matching within 24 to 48 hours. We coordinate with the hospital's discharge planner when we can to make sure nothing gets missed. The sooner you call, the sooner we can have someone there.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover around-the-clock non-medical caregiving, which is what most families in this situation need. We can tell you exactly what the costs are upfront, and we can talk about how to think through the budget. Some families use long-term care insurance, personal savings, or family contribution to cover it.
Home health aides come for a few hours a few times a week and are typically ordered by a doctor for medical reasons. 24-Hour Care is around the clock, every day and night. It's for families who need constant presence and support, not just scheduled medical help. The continuity and the nighttime safety are the big differences.
Yes. We listen to what your parent is actually like, what matters to them, what their day looks like, and what worries you most at night. Are they mobile or do they need physical support? Are they clear-minded or experiencing memory changes? Do they need someone energetic or calm? We match based on personality and capability, not just availability.
We have backup. If your regular caregiver is sick or unable to work, we have trained caregivers who can step in. We don't leave you without coverage. We'll call ahead when we can, and we'll send someone your parent is already familiar with if possible. Continuity matters, so we plan for this from the start.
