Your sister noticed something when she visited for Thanksgiving, sitting with your mom in the living room off Route 66. Your mom couldn’t quite remember what year it was, kept asking the same question three times in an hour. By the time you called William W. Backus Hospital for a referral, you realized you needed more than an aide, you needed someone who understood what comes next.

Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Alzheimer’s Care isn’t just supervision. It’s understanding how the disease changes your parent’s day, hour by hour, and knowing what to do when they’re confused, when they wander, or when they can’t find words for what they need. We track patterns, we keep routines steady, and we stay alert for the small shifts that tell you something’s changed.
On a typical day, our caregiver helps with bathing and dressing, reminds about meals and medications, takes walks to burn off restlessness, sits during the afternoon hours when sundowning hits hard, and watches for safety risks you’ve learned to miss because you’re too close to it. We also give you a break, which matters more than you think when you’ve been the only one holding the line.
Many Lebanon families come to us after a hospital stay at William W. Backus or after realizing that managing Alzheimer’s at home takes more skill than kindness alone. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand medical changes, infection signs, and medication timing, not just how to be kind and patient.
Our founder is a nurse who spent years watching this disease unfold in families’ homes. We’re not learning as we go, we’re matching caregivers who’ve done this before, who recognize the stages, and who know when to call you versus when to handle it.
We don’t just send someone on day one. We listen to what your parent was like before, what scares you most, what your dad loved to do. Then we brief the caregiver on your family’s specific routines and triggers, and we stay on call when things shift.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. If your mom’s medication timing needs to shift or a caregiver calls with a concern, you reach us, not an answering service. We talk through it and adjust.
We’re local to Lebanon, Columbia, Franklin, and Norwich. We know the discharge process at William W. Backus Hospital, we work with local doctors, and we understand the rhythm of this area’s families and their resources.

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
A caregiver arrives at the time you choose and handles personal care like bathing, dressing, and grooming. They help with meals, remind about medications, and stay present during the hours when confusion is worst. They watch for wandering, keep the home safe, document what they notice, and give you a written update so you know what happened while you were at work or sleeping. Some days that's quiet and routine, other days it's managing agitation or a fall risk.
We can often start within 48 hours if the need is urgent. We'll call you the day you contact us, ask questions about your parent and what the hospital discharge plan says, and match a caregiver who fits your situation. If it's Friday and you need Monday, we make that happen. The sooner we start, the sooner your parent gets into a safe routine and you can breathe.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means you're paying out of pocket, but it also means we're not limited by insurance rules about how often someone can visit or what tasks we can do. Some families use long-term care insurance if they have it, others use savings or family help. We can talk through what costs to expect and help you think through options.
A home health aide is typically ordered by a doctor and covered by insurance for a limited number of visits focused on medical recovery or specific tasks. Alzheimer's Care is ongoing support matched to your parent's disease stage, with caregivers trained to recognize dementia behavior, manage wandering and confusion, and adjust to changes as the disease progresses. We're there longer, more often, and we're thinking about the disease itself, not just the diagnosis.
Yes. We listen to what your parent needs, what they loved before Alzheimer's, what times of day are hardest, and what you're most worried about. Then we find someone from our team who has experience with those specific challenges and who clicks with your family. We do trial visits if you want them, and if the match isn't right, we adjust.
We have backup caregivers in Lebanon and the surrounding towns who are also trained and briefed on your parent's needs. We'll call you before sending someone new so you're not surprised. We try hard to keep things consistent, but we also make sure you're never without coverage when someone gets sick or life happens.
