24-Hour Care in Wilton, 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 it at Thanksgiving, when your mom couldn’t quite remember how to get from the living room to the kitchen of the house she’s lived in for forty years. By the time you drove out from the city that night, you realized she’d had a fall on Prospect Ridge Road that she never mentioned. Now you’re facing a choice: move back to Wilton, or find someone who can actually be there, all night, every night.

24-Hour Care is one caregiver in your home, living there with your parent, awake and available around the clock. Not shifts. Not part-time help that leaves gaps. One person your parent knows, who’s there when they wake at 2 a.m., who catches falls before they happen, who makes sure medications are taken, who’s in the kitchen at breakfast and in the house at midnight.
Day-to-day, it looks like help with bathing, dressing, meals, and movement. It’s someone who knows your parent’s routines, their fears, what they need without asking. It’s monitoring for the small changes that matter, like appetite shifts or confusion, so you hear about them before they become crises. It’s your parent not being alone, period.
After a stay at Norwalk Hospital or a change at home, Wilton families often find that 24-Hour Care is the only option that actually fits. We’re nurse-founded, which means we’ve lived the difference between hiring anyone and hiring the right person for your parent’s safety. We know how to listen, match, and stay with you when things shift.
Being nurse-founded means we know what around-the-clock safety actually requires. We don’t just find caregivers. We find people who notice changes in gait, who keep the hallway clear, who respond to a call in seconds. We know the families who can’t leave their parent alone, because we’ve been those families.
Before anyone starts, we listen to your parent’s habits, temperament, and needs. We brief caregivers thoroughly so they’re not figuring things out on day one. Experience matters. The people we place for 24-Hour Care have done this work long enough to stay calm when something unexpected happens at 3 a.m.
24-Hour Care doesn’t end when placement begins. If your parent’s needs change, if the match isn’t working, if you need to adjust care, we’re here to listen and adjust. You don’t navigate a crisis wondering if anyone’s paying attention.
We understand the discharge process at Norwalk Hospital. We know the neighborhoods of Wilton Center, Georgetown, and Cannondale. We’re local enough to respond quickly and experienced enough to handle what comes next.

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 toileting. They prepare meals, manage medications, and help your parent move safely around the house. They keep the home clean, do light laundry, and grocery shop. They're awake at night, alert for calls or falls, and they're someone your parent comes to know and trust. It's full-time presence, not just full-time coverage.
If you're planning ahead, we can often start the same day or within 24 hours of discharge. If it's urgent, call us directly and we'll move fast. We coordinate with the hospital's discharge team so there's no gap between hospital care and home care. The faster we know about your parent's needs, the faster we can have someone in place.
24-Hour Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover round-the-clock in-home care at this level. We're upfront about that because you deserve to know the cost before we start. We can discuss pricing, care schedules, and ways to make it work for your family's budget.
A home health aide typically comes for a few hours a day, often ordered by a doctor and sometimes covered by insurance. 24-Hour Care means someone lives in your home, providing continuous presence and support. Home health aides are medical focused. Our 24-Hour Care is about safety, daily living, and making sure your parent is never alone. It's a different level of commitment.
Yes. We take time to understand your parent, their history, what they need to feel safe, and what personality fit matters. We match based on experience, temperament, and availability in Wilton. If it's not working after the first few days, we listen and make a change. The right match is the foundation of everything.
We have backup coverage. If your caregiver is sick or needs a day off, we have someone ready to step in so there's no gap. We communicate that change to you in advance whenever possible. Your parent's continuity of care doesn't stop because one person is unavailable.
