Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Alzheimer’s Care is trained support for someone whose memory and judgment are changing. We work with the progression as it happens, helping your parent stay safe while keeping as much routine and dignity as possible. It’s not medical nursing, but it’s deeper than general housekeeping. It’s someone who shows up understanding what’s really going on.
On any given day, this might mean helping with medications and timing, structuring the morning so confusion doesn’t take over, keeping an eye on someone who wanders, reminding them of who you are without making them feel bad, preparing meals they’ll actually eat, and staying calm when the same question gets asked four times in an hour. Families tell us the biggest relief is knowing someone’s there who won’t get frustrated or exhausted by the repetition.
After a stay at Danbury Hospital or a doctor’s diagnosis in Bethel, families often feel unmoored. We’re nurse-founded, which means we know how to read what’s actually happening, spot changes early, and talk to your medical team in their language. We also know Fairfield County well enough to match someone who gets your neighborhood, your family’s rhythm, and what your parent needs.
We started this work because nurses kept seeing families struggle after discharge, patching things together alone. We know how Alzheimer’s actually progresses, how to spot a UTI pretending to be confusion, and how to talk to doctors. That knowledge lives in how we pick and train every caregiver.
We don’t just send whoever’s available. We listen to what your parent needs, what frustrates them, what time of day is hardest, whether they need someone calm or someone with humor. Then we match carefully and do a full briefing so the caregiver knows the real story before day one.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. When something changes, when your parent has a fall or stops eating or becomes agitated at 2 a.m., you need someone who picks up and helps you think it through. We’re here, and we don’t hand you a manual and disappear.
We work in Bethel and the surrounding towns. We know the transition home from Danbury Hospital. We’re not outsiders learning your area. We’re already here, and we move fast when a family needs us.

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.

Common questions
A caregiver comes to your home and helps with the things your parent can't manage alone anymore. That includes helping with medications, prompting meals and hygiene, structuring the day so there's less confusion and agitation, watching for wandering or safety risks, and just being steady company. If your parent is still driving, we help monitor that. If they're repeating the same conversation, we're trained to answer gently each time. It's both practical and emotional support.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours if you call us right away. We get a copy of the discharge paperwork from Danbury Hospital, talk to your doctor if there are new instructions, and do a home visit to understand the setup. The faster we know what's happening, the faster we can have someone there you can trust. We've done this enough times to move without fumbling.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, meaning you work directly with us and handle the billing yourself. Medicare and insurance sometimes cover medical home health nursing, but not the kind of daily support Alzheimer's usually needs. We can give you the paperwork to submit to your insurance company, and you can ask your accountant about any deductions. We're honest about the cost because families deserve to know what they're paying for.
A home health aide is often ordered by a doctor for a specific medical need and is covered by insurance for a set number of hours. Alzheimer's Care is flexible, private pay support that's built around memory loss and behavior, not just medical tasks. Our caregivers are trained in how Alzheimer's changes someone, how to redirect instead of argue, and how to keep the day structured. We also stay involved in case adjustments are needed.
Yes, that's exactly what we do. We ask you detailed questions about your parent, their history, what soothes them, what triggers agitation, whether they're a morning person, what they loved doing, and what your family's situation actually is. Then we match someone with the right training and temperament. We introduce them before they start, and we stay involved if the fit needs adjusting.
We have backup caregivers who know your parent and can step in. If it's unexpected, we call you as soon as possible so there's no surprise. We don't leave you hanging. We also do a briefing with backup caregivers so they know your parent's routine and what matters. Continuity is hard in Alzheimer's Care, so we work to keep it as steady as we can.
