Alzheimer’s Care is structured, around-the-clock support for someone whose memory and decision-making are changing. A caregiver comes to your home to help with daily tasks, but the real work is keeping your parent safe, keeping their routine steady, and giving you a chance to breathe. It’s not medical nursing. It’s the person who notices your dad is dressed but hasn’t eaten, who walks with your mom to keep her grounded, who writes things down so everyone stays on the same page.
On a typical day, Alzheimer’s Care covers medications on time, meals that actually get finished, personal care and hygiene, activities that keep your parent’s mind active, and watching for the small changes that matter. Your caregiver documents what happened, what your parent needed, what worried them. You get a report. If something shifts, you’re not learning about it secondhand. Your parent gets to stay in their own home, with people who know their face, their habits, what calms them down at 3 a.m.
Families in Danbury often work with us after a stay at Danbury Hospital reveals that independent living isn’t safe anymore. We’re nurse-founded, which means we know what a discharge really looks like and what you actually need at home. We don’t hand off paperwork. We brief your parent’s caregivers personally, we match based on personality and experience with Alzheimer’s, and we stay with you as things change.
One of our founders spent years as an RN watching families navigate this disease. We know that structure isn’t boring, it’s essential. We know wandering isn’t stubborn, it’s scared. We build a routine that works for your parent and gives you back some of your energy.
Before a caregiver walks through your door, we listen to who your parent is right now. Are they early or late stage? Do they respond better to quiet company or conversation? What time of day is hardest? We match on personality and experience, not just availability.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. You call us at 6 a.m. or 10 p.m., and we answer. If your regular caregiver can’t make it, we have backups. If your parent’s needs change, we adjust. You’re not managing a crisis alone.
We work with Danbury Hospital’s discharge planners. We know which pharmacies are closest, which doctors on White Street take late calls, how to move through the local system fast. When you’re exhausted, having someone who doesn’t need directions helps.

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 caregiver arrives at a time that works for you, helps your parent with personal care, makes sure medications are taken, prepares meals and sits with them while they eat, helps with light housekeeping and laundry, takes them on walks or activities that match their interests, and watches for any changes in mood, appetite, or safety. They document everything and report back to you. It's presence, structure, and eyes on someone you love.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge if you call ahead. If your parent is still at Danbury Hospital, reach out while they're there and we'll coordinate directly with the discharge team. We get the medical summary, ask the right questions, and have a caregiver ready. Waiting weeks after discharge means your parent is alone or you're running on empty, so we move fast.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing and some home health services, but not the kind of daily support and structure that Alzheimer's really needs. We work with families on what makes sense for their budget. Some combine our care with part-time aide coverage through insurance. We're honest about cost upfront.
A home health aide comes after a doctor orders it, usually for a few hours a week and for a limited time. Alzheimer's Care is ongoing, tailored to your parent's stage of disease, and designed around structure and safety. Our caregivers are trained in Alzheimer's behavior and progression. You get continuity, not turnover. We're not short-term. We're the person who becomes part of your parent's routine.
Yes. We talk to you first about your parent's personality, what they're afraid of, what comforts them, what time of day is hardest, whether they need someone quiet or talkative. We consider experience, language, patience with repetition. We then introduce the caregiver, watch how they connect, and adjust if needed. One caregiver isn't right for everyone.
We have a backup system. If your regular caregiver is sick or can't make it, we call a trained replacement who's familiar with your parent's routine. We don't cancel. We don't ask you to cover the gap. Your parent stays on schedule, and you stay at work or rest.
