Alzheimer’s Care is in-home support designed around how the disease actually progresses. It’s not just about helping your parent get dressed or take medication, though we do both. It’s about recognizing that structure, routine, and safety become the spine holding everything together as memory fades.
On any given day, this looks like keeping morning routines consistent so your parent feels anchored. We watch for wandering risk and know how to redirect gently when confusion builds. We manage medications so nothing gets missed or doubled. We’re there when sundowning starts and agitation rises. We give you space to breathe, to work, to sleep without the phone ringing at 2 a.m. We notice changes and flag them before they become crises.
After a parent comes home from Danbury Hospital, the transition is often when families realize how much has shifted. We’ve worked with Danbury Hospital’s discharge planners long enough to know the gap between hospital care and what’s needed at home. Our founder is a nurse, so we understand disease progression in detail and why your parent needs someone who’s thought through both the medical and emotional sides of Alzheimer’s.
We don’t treat every day the same because Alzheimer’s doesn’t. Our founder’s nursing background means we can read subtle changes, anticipate what’s coming next, and adjust before crisis hits. You get someone who understands the neurology and the heartbreak at once.
We spend time understanding your parent’s history, personality, what made them them. Then we match a caregiver who gets it. A good fit in Alzheimer’s Care means your parent relaxes, your stress drops, and we can catch problems early because the relationship is real.
Alzheimer’s Care situations shift fast. When you call with a concern or need an urgent change, you talk to someone who knows your family and can act. No runaround. No scripts. We adjust because the disease adjusts.
We know Brookfield streets, Danbury Hospital staff, and the rhythm of post-discharge care in this county. That local knowledge means faster response, better coordination with doctors, and fewer misunderstandings about what your parent actually needs.

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
It starts with helping your parent through morning routines without rushing, which keeps them calmer. We remind about meals and medications, stay alert for wandering or unsafe behaviors, and keep the house running so routines don't collapse. We're watching for signs of infection, pain, or confusion that's worsening. We talk to you regularly so nothing surprises you. Some days are quiet. Some days we're redirecting your parent multiple times because the confusion is heavier. We're ready for both.
We can often begin within 48 hours of a referral. If your parent is being discharged from Danbury Hospital, call us before discharge day so we can coordinate directly with the hospital team and get someone in place when your parent gets home. That first week is critical, and gaps during transition are when accidents happen. We move fast because we know the stakes.
No. Alzheimer's Care is private pay because it's not skilled nursing in the medical-billing sense, even though it requires real expertise. We work with families on rates and schedules that fit their budget. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, or blend our care with other resources. We're honest about cost upfront and don't pretend coverage exists where it doesn't.
A home health aide handles tasks: bathing, dressing, toileting. Alzheimer's Care includes those tasks, but it's built around understanding how the disease changes behavior and thinking. We're watching for progression, managing the structure your parent needs, recognizing when confusion is a medical symptom, and catching safety risks before they happen. It's the difference between help and specialized understanding.
Yes, that's exactly what we do. We'll learn about your parent's background, what they loved doing, any sensitivities or comfort triggers, and what your family's rhythm looks like. We introduce a caregiver and adjust if the fit isn't right. A good match in Alzheimer's Care makes everything easier, quieter, and safer. We take the time because a mismatch costs you more in stress and risk.
We have backup caregivers trained to your parent's needs and familiar with your home. If your regular caregiver is sick or unavailable, we fill the shift. We don't leave you hanging. We also give you notice and coordinate in advance whenever possible so there's no surprise disruption to your parent's routine, which matters deeply in Alzheimer's Care.
