Your sister noticed it at Thanksgiving dinner, the way your mom repeated the same story three times in an hour. By January, she’d stopped going to her book club at the East Haddam Library.

Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Alzheimer’s Care is skilled support for someone in early, middle, or later stages of the disease. We’re here to help your parent stay safe, keep a routine that makes sense, and handle the things that scare families most, like wandering, medication mix-ups, and the exhaustion that comes from constant vigilance.
On a typical day, our caregivers help with bathing, dressing, meals, and medications. They keep an eye on safety around the house, they know how to redirect when confusion sets in, and they give you room to breathe. They notice small changes and report them to you, so you’re never guessing what’s happening.
East Haddam families often come to us after a hospital stay at Middlesex Hospital or when a doctor appointment makes clear that more support is needed at home. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand disease progression and how to adjust care as Alzheimer’s changes. That experience shows up in every shift.
Alzheimer’s moves at its own pace, and what works today won’t work next month. We’ve built our Alzheimer’s Care around that reality, briefing caregivers on your parent’s specific needs and adjusting as things shift. Being nurse-founded means we know the disease, not just the tasks.
We don’t just send someone. We listen to what your parent needs, who they respond to, what their days look like, and we match a caregiver who fits. That work up front saves months of friction and keeps your parent calmer and more cooperative.
Alzheimer’s Care isn’t static. When your parent gets more confused, or less cooperative, or develops a new concern, you call us. We pick up. We adjust the plan without making it a production.
We know the East Haddam area and the discharge process at Middlesex Hospital. We can start care quickly after a hospital stay, we understand the local doctors and pharmacies, and we move faster because we’re here.

We listen to your situation. No forms, no pressure, no sales pitch.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
We help with personal care like bathing, dressing, and grooming. We remind about meals and medications, and we stay present so you don't have to worry about safety. We keep routines steady because routine matters in Alzheimer's. We notice changes and report them to you. And we give you time to work, rest, or just step away knowing your parent is safe and someone who gets it is in the house.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of a discharge. Being local to Middlesex County means we understand what your parent needs coming home from the hospital and we have caregivers ready. Call us as soon as discharge is being planned, and we'll work with the hospital social worker and your family to get someone in place before your parent gets home.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing or therapy after a hospital stay, but ongoing Alzheimer's support at home is not a covered service. We work with families directly on scheduling and cost, and many people use a mix of our care and other resources to build the support they need.
A home health aide provides personal care tasks. Alzheimer's Care includes those tasks, but also training and experience in dementia progression, behavior, safety concerns, and how to communicate when someone is confused or resistant. Our caregivers know how to keep your parent calm, safe, and engaged during a time when standard help often isn't enough.
Yes. We start with a conversation about who your parent is, what they've always been like, what they respond to, and what worries you most. Then we match a caregiver with experience and personality that fits. If it's not working, we adjust. Matching is the foundation of Alzheimer's Care that actually works.
We have backup caregivers trained in your parent's routine and needs. We brief them before they come. We don't just send a stranger who knows nothing about Alzheimer's. You're kept in the loop, and we make sure the transition is smooth for your parent and for you.
