Alzheimer’s Care is specialized in-home support that’s built around how the disease progresses. We’re not just helping with tasks, we’re creating structure, catching safety risks before they become emergencies, and watching for the signs that things are changing. Our caregivers know what wandering looks like, what medication confusion looks like, and how to keep your parent safe without making them feel trapped.
On any given day, this means reminding about meals and medications, keeping a routine so your parent feels oriented, noticing if they’re staying up all night or sleeping too much, making sure they don’t wander into dangerous situations, and giving you a break so you can actually breathe. We also watch for falls, changes in mood or behavior, and anything that signals you need to call their doctor or Middlesex Hospital.
Families coming home from Middlesex Hospital after a diagnosis or hospital stay often don’t know where to start with Alzheimer’s Care. We do. Because we’re nurse-founded, we understand the medical side and the human side, and we build a care plan that actually fits how your family lives in Chester and Middlesex County.
Our founder is a nurse who has walked families through this disease. We don’t treat every day the same, we adjust as things change. We catch the small shifts that mean your parent needs more help, and we’re honest about what’s coming.
We don’t just send whoever’s available. We listen to what your parent needs, who they’ll trust, what time of day is hardest, and whether they do better with routine or flexibility. The right match can change everything.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. When your parent has a bad night or you need to shift care quickly, you call us and we answer. No voicemail loops, no waiting for a callback.
We know Chester, we know the discharge process at Middlesex Hospital, and we know your neighbors. Being local means we show up fast and we understand the rhythm of life here.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A typical day includes helping with breakfast and making sure medication is taken, keeping your parent on a routine so they feel less confused, watching for wandering or unsafe behavior, reminding about lunch and dinner, helping with hygiene or dressing if needed, and spending time doing activities they recognize. We also note any changes, keep the home safe, and give you a full report at the end of the shift. Every day is different depending on where they are in the disease.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge. We ask for the hospital paperwork, we talk to you about what happened and what you're seeing at home, and we match a caregiver who fits your parent's needs. If you're coming home and you know you need help, call us before discharge so we can be ready on day one.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means it's not covered by Medicare or most insurance plans. We're honest about cost because families deserve to know. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, and some use a combination of savings and family contribution. We can talk through what might work for your situation.
A home health aide typically helps with activities of daily living after an injury or surgery and works under a medical plan. Alzheimer's Care is ongoing support built around dementia progression, safety, and structure. We're trained to recognize behavioral changes, prevent wandering, keep routines, and understand how the disease affects decision-making. We're also available longer term as the disease progresses.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, what time of day is hardest, whether they prefer quiet or company, if they respond better to men or women, and what activities they still enjoy. We also listen to you about what you need from a caregiver. A good match takes a conversation, not just an assignment.
We have a backup plan. We keep caregivers trained and ready so we're not leaving you scrambling. We also try to minimize surprises by giving you notice and introducing backup caregivers early so your parent is familiar with them. If an emergency happens, we make sure someone is there and you're updated right away.
