24-Hour Care means someone is there, awake and present, from bedtime to morning and through the night. It’s not hospital care, and it’s not a quick daily visit. It’s a caregiver in your home, alert to what your parent needs when they need it most, whether that’s help getting up safely, medication at 2 a.m., or simply being there so they’re not alone in the dark.
On any given day, 24-Hour Care includes assistance with bathing and dressing, preparing meals, managing medications, helping with bathroom needs, and staying alert for falls or changes in health. If your parent wakes confused or needs help in the middle of the night, your caregiver is there. If they fall or feel unwell, you’re not waiting for a morning call. You know someone was there the moment it happened.
In Wethersfield, many families turn to us after a discharge from Hartford Hospital or following a health event that made it clear nighttime is when things go wrong. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand that 24-Hour Care isn’t just about comfort, it’s about prevention and safety. We know the Hartford County system and how to pick caregivers who think like nurses, not just people who show up.
We started this because we saw families living in fear of the nighttime hours. Our founders were nurses who understood that around-the-clock safety isn’t about luck, it’s about presence and knowledge. When we match a caregiver to your parent, they know what to watch for and when to call.
We don’t send you whoever’s available. We brief your caregiver on your parent’s habits, medications, fears, and history. We match them to people with the right experience for your specific situation. Continuity matters, especially at night.
If your parent’s health shifts, if your situation changes, or if your regular caregiver needs to step back, we’re here to adjust quickly. You’re not managing this alone. We answer the phone and we listen.
We know Wethersfield and the hospitals you’re working with. We understand the Hartford Hospital discharge process and what families typically need in that first vulnerable week. Being local means we move fast and we know the landscape.

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 is present overnight and through the morning. They help your parent with toileting, bathing, dressing, and medications. They prepare meals and handle light household tasks related to care. Mostly, they're awake and alert, watching for falls, confusion, pain, or other signs something's changed. If your parent needs help at 3 a.m., the caregiver is there. If something feels wrong, they call you or your doctor right away.
We can often start within days of discharge, sometimes sooner if we have advance notice. We work with Hartford Hospital's discharge planners and understand the urgency. We'll schedule a brief visit before 24-Hour Care begins so your caregiver knows exactly what your parent needs. The faster we start, the faster your family can breathe again.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover around-the-clock in-home care because it's not medical skilled nursing. We're honest about that from the start. What we do is help families understand what they're paying for and make sure the investment is worth every dollar.
A home health aide comes for a few hours a day and leaves. 24-Hour Care means someone stays overnight and through the morning, awake the whole time. The difference is night safety, fall prevention, and knowing someone is there when your parent wakes at 2 a.m. confused or in pain. It's the difference between hope and dread when darkness falls.
Yes. We sit down with your family and your parent to understand their personality, habits, medical history, and what makes them comfortable. Then we match a caregiver with the right experience and temperament. If it's not working after a week, we adjust. This isn't assembly-line care. It's personal.
We don't leave you stranded. We maintain a network of trained backup caregivers in the Hartford County area so there's always coverage. We call you in advance if a change is happening and we give you as much notice as possible. Your parent's safety and your peace of mind don't stop because someone calls in sick.
