Alzheimer’s Care is hourly support for your parent at home as their memory and judgment shift. It’s not medical nursing, but it’s structured help with the daily routines that get harder as the disease progresses, medication reminders, monitoring for safety when they wander, and the kind of presence that lets you breathe.
On a typical day, a caregiver might help with bathing, dressing, meals, and keeping a consistent routine. They watch for signs of confusion, make sure your parent doesn’t wander out unsupervised, and give you honest updates about what they’re seeing. Many families tell us the real relief comes from knowing someone’s there, and that we’re watching for the changes ahead.
In Bloomfield and Hartford County, we’ve worked with families coming home from Hartford Hospital with new diagnoses or after a fall that changed everything. Our caregivers are trained in dementia progression and what structure actually looks like, which matters more than you’d think. Being nurse-founded means we know the difference between a bad day and a real decline, and we don’t panic your family over nothing.
Our founder is a nurse who spent years watching families exhaust themselves trying to manage alone. We know when to keep structure tight and when to let go, how to spot wandering risk before it happens, and how to talk to you honestly about what’s coming next. That experience saves your family from a lot of trial and error.
We brief every caregiver on your parent’s specific fears, routines, and triggers before they walk in the door. We match based on fit, not just availability. That means fewer transitions and fewer days where your parent is confused by a stranger.
Alzheimer’s Care isn’t predictable. A bad morning might mean you need extra hours that day, or you need a different caregiver who can handle new resistance. You call us, we listen, we adjust. No voicemail maze.
We know the discharge process at Hartford Hospital, the neighborhoods all across Bloomfield where families live, and the home safety concerns that matter most in this region. That local knowledge means faster placement and fewer surprises.

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 for the hours you arrange, usually 4 to 8 hour shifts. They help with bathing, dressing, meals, and grooming. They keep a routine because routine stops a lot of fear and wandering. They give medications reminders and watch what your parent eats and drinks. They keep them engaged with simple tasks or activities, and they watch for safety issues like leaving the stove on or trying to go outside without supervision. You get honest updates, not just a checkbox that someone showed up.
We've started care within 48 hours of a phone call from Bloomfield families. If Hartford Hospital sends discharge papers our way, we move faster. We'll do a brief home visit to understand the layout, any safety concerns, and your parent's current state. Then we match a caregiver and get them oriented. If you're in crisis mode, tell us that first. We prioritize.
No. Alzheimer's Care is private pay because it's not medical care, it's supervision and daily support. Medicare covers skilled nursing or physical therapy, not this kind of in-home help. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, but most pay out of pocket. We're transparent about rates upfront so there are no surprises.
A home health aide is sent by a medical agency on a doctor's order for post-injury recovery or wound care. They're focused on a specific medical need, and they're there for a set rehab period. Alzheimer's Care is different. It's longer-term support for someone with progressive memory loss. It's about structure, safety, and keeping your parent engaged while you get relief. The caregiver is trained in dementia, not post-surgical care.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, what scared them, what they loved before this, any resistance patterns, and what time of day is hardest. We also ask about you. Some families need frequent updates and check-ins. Others need hands-off trust. We match both ways. It takes a day or two longer than just sending the first available person, but it saves weeks of tension later.
We have backup caregivers we've trained on your parent and your home. We call you first before sending someone new, and we only send someone if it's a good fit. If your regular caregiver is sick, you're not scrambling alone. If it's planned time off, we give you notice and prep a backup. If something unexpected happens, we treat it like an emergency on our end.
