Your sister noticed it at Thanksgiving, standing in your parents’ kitchen near the window overlooking Route 25. Your mom had forgotten she’d already taken her morning pills, and she was unsteady on her feet in a way that scared you both. You realized then that you couldn’t keep tag-teaming phone calls and worry. Someone needed to be there, all night, every night.

24-Hour Care means having a trained caregiver in your parent’s home from bedtime through the next morning, and then overnight again. It’s one person staying present when falls happen most, when medications get confusing, when your parent wakes at 3 a.m. disoriented. You’re not managing a schedule yourself. You’re not wondering who’s there.
Day to day, you’ll see your parent getting helped with personal care, meals prepared and eaten, medications managed on time, and someone alert during the hours when you can’t be. The caregiver keeps watch for changes, stays calm during confusion, and knows when to call you versus when to handle something routine. Your parent gets the safety net. You finally sleep through the night.
If your parent came home from St. Vincent’s Medical Center recently, we know that transition period well. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand discharge orders, post-surgery fall risk, and the gap between hospital discharge and when your parent feels truly steady at home. Being based in Fairfield County, we know the St. Vincent’s discharge process and can start care the same day your parent walks through their door.
We started this because we saw families try to manage nighttime falls and medication timing alone. A nurse knows what “staying alert” actually means during the hours when your parent is most vulnerable. It’s not just presence. It’s the ability to recognize when something changes and act on it.
You tell us what matters most: does your parent need someone steady and quiet, or someone who talks? Do they have specific routines we need to honor? We brief our caregiver fully before they arrive, and we keep adjusting based on what you and your parent tell us is working.
24-Hour Care isn’t set in stone. If your parent’s health changes, or you need to add a few hours during the day, or you want to try a different caregiver, you call us and we move. You’re not locked into a contract that doesn’t fit anymore.
We work with St. Vincent’s Medical Center regularly and know their discharge coordinators. We understand Trumbull’s geography, the neighborhoods where our families live, and the local hospitals. We’re not a national service. We’re here.

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 arrives in the evening and stays through the night and early morning. They help with bathing or showering if needed, manage medications, prepare meals, and stay awake and alert during sleep hours. They assist with toileting, get your parent up safely in the morning, and stay until you or another family member can take over. They keep a log of how your parent slept, ate, and any concerns, so you know exactly what happened.
If you call us while your parent is still in the hospital or on discharge day, we can usually place a caregiver that same evening or the next morning. We have relationships with St. Vincent's and understand the urgency of those first few days home. Sometimes the safest transition starts immediately. We'll move fast to make that happen.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover around-the-clock in-home care at this level. We're honest about cost upfront so you can make the right choice for your family. We can discuss what fits your budget and what alternatives might layer with other services you're already using.
Home health aides typically come for a few hours, a few times a week, and are usually ordered by a doctor after a hospital stay. 24-Hour Care is someone living in your parent's home overnight and into the morning, every single night. It's for families who can't leave their parent alone at night, or who've had a fall, or who need that constant presence for safety and peace of mind. The scope is much broader and the caregiver is there continuously.
Yes. We ask you detailed questions about your parent's personality, routines, medical needs, and what matters most to them. Do they prefer quiet mornings or someone chatty? Do they need experience with dementia, diabetes, or post-surgical care? We listen to your answers and match carefully. If the first match doesn't feel right after a few days, we can change it.
We always have a backup plan. We don't leave you scrambling at the last minute. If your regular caregiver is sick or has an emergency, we place a trained substitute who knows your parent's routine from our notes and briefings. You get a call ahead of time whenever possible. Continuity matters in 24-Hour Care, and we take it seriously.
