Alzheimer’s Care is in-home support built around the reality of memory loss and personality changes. We’re talking about someone who understands the specific worries you’re facing: keeping your parent safe when they wander, helping them stay on medication, maintaining routines that slow confusion, and giving you room to breathe so you don’t burn out in the middle of your own life.
On any given day, our caregivers manage medication reminders, prepare meals when appetite gets tricky, help with toileting and bathing, manage the constant redirection that Alzheimer’s requires, and stay alert for falls or signs that something’s changed. They know how to be calm when your parent repeats the same story for the tenth time in an hour. They watch for the small stuff, the behavioral shifts that tell you whether today is a stable day or a day you need to call the doctor.
Easton families who’ve come through St. Vincent’s Medical Center with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis often find themselves discharged with a list of care instructions but no one to actually carry them out at 2 a.m. We’re nurse-founded, which means our caregivers aren’t just trained on tasks, they understand disease progression and can spot when something needs medical attention before it becomes a crisis.
Our founder is a nurse who spent years watching families hit a wall with Alzheimer’s. We know the exhaustion, the guilt, the middle-of-the-night fear. That’s why our caregivers aren’t just following a checklist, they understand how to keep your parent safe and calm through the stages of decline.
A good match between your parent and caregiver is everything in Alzheimer’s Care. We spend time learning your parent’s history, their triggers, what helps them stay steady. Once paired, we keep that relationship stable because continuity matters more than almost anything else.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. If your parent has a rough day or your caregiver has an emergency, you reach us and we respond. You won’t wait on hold or wonder if anyone’s listening.
We know the discharge social workers at St. Vincent’s Medical Center, we understand the local hospitals and physicians, and we’re familiar with the neighborhoods across Easton, Weston, Trumbull, Monroe, and Shelton. That local knowledge matters when you need care fast.

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 bathing or toileting, preparing meals and reminding your parent to eat, managing medications, monitoring for wandering or safety risks, and keeping them engaged or calm depending on what the day calls for. Our caregiver also documents changes, watches for signs of infection or other medical concerns, and keeps you updated. Some days are quiet and structured. Other days require constant redirection and patience when confusion is high.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of your call, depending on caregiver availability and your schedule. If you're being discharged and know the date, we recommend reaching out ahead of time so we can brief your caregiver on your parent's specific discharge plan, medications, and any precautions. That briefing makes the first day smoother for everyone.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing or therapy if ordered by a doctor, but ongoing memory care and safety support at home fall outside insurance coverage in most cases. We work with many families who use long-term care insurance, savings, or a combination of resources. We're happy to discuss what the costs look like for your parent's needs.
A home health aide, when covered by insurance, is focused on activities of daily living and usually follows a medical order from a doctor. Alzheimer's Care is specifically tailored to memory loss, behavior changes, and the safety concerns that come with cognitive decline. Our caregivers understand the disease progression and how to adapt their approach as your parent changes. It's a different skill set for a different stage.
Yes. We listen to your parent's history, personality, what calms them, what triggers anxiety or agitation, and what kind of caregiver personality would be the best fit. We're not assigning someone based on availability alone. We match based on the real dynamics between your parent and the person who'll be in their home, and that makes a real difference in how the care goes.
We have backup coverage. We'll reach out and either provide a familiar backup or give you as much notice as possible if we need to pause a shift. We don't leave you stranded. That said, we do everything we can to keep a consistent caregiver in place because continuity is one of the most stabilizing things we can offer in Alzheimer's Care.
