Alzheimer’s Care is specialized in-home support for people in early, middle, or late stages of memory loss. We’re here to help your parent stay as independent as possible while keeping them safe, managing the day-to-day tasks that become harder, and giving you back some breathing room. Our caregivers are trained in what you’ll actually face: the repetition, the confusion, the 3 a.m. calls, the wandering, the refusal to bathe.
On any given day, Alzheimer’s Care covers medication reminders, meal prep and supervision, bathing and dressing, toileting assistance, structured activities to reduce agitation, and keeping a careful eye on safety. We maintain routines because routine is what keeps Alzheimer’s patients grounded. We document changes and report back to you and your doctors. We’re the person in the house who notices when something shifts.
If your parent is recovering at home after a Hartford Hospital stay, we can pick up care the day they’re discharged. Many families find that having trained Alzheimer’s support at home prevents the readmissions that used to be common. We’re nurse-founded, which means our caregivers understand not just what to do, but why structure and consistency matter so much in Alzheimer’s care.
Our founder is a registered nurse who built this agency because she saw families drowning in confusion and guilt. We know what caregiver burnout looks like, and we know how to step in so you don’t have to choose between your health and your parent’s safety. Every caregiver we match to Alzheimer’s care has training in how the disease progresses and what to expect.
We don’t just send someone to your door. We meet with you first, listen to your parent’s history and habits, and hand-match a caregiver who fits your family. Once care starts, we stay in touch constantly. If something isn’t working, we adjust it. Your feedback shapes how we show up.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. We keep a local team ready so that if your regular caregiver is sick or if your parent’s needs change overnight, we can respond without delay. You have our number, and we answer it.
We’ve worked with Marlborough families long enough to understand the local hospital discharge process, the doctors who specialize in dementia, and the rhythms of your town. That local knowledge matters when your parent is vulnerable and you need someone who already knows the system.

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.

Common questions
A typical day includes waking your parent, helping with personal hygiene, preparing and supervising meals, giving medications at the right time, engaging them in quiet activities or walks to reduce restlessness, helping with toileting and incontinence care, and keeping them safe if they try to wander. We also do light housekeeping related to their care, document any changes in behavior or health, and contact you with updates. The goal is structure, safety, and dignity.
We can often start the same day or the next business day, depending on when your parent comes home and what staffing we have available. Our intake coordinator will work directly with Hartford Hospital's discharge team to make sure we have all medical information and a care plan before your parent walks through the door. If you call us while your parent is still in the hospital, we move quickly.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means you pay out of pocket. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover in-home support for Alzheimer's unless there's a recent hospitalization and skilled nursing is ordered. We can tell you exactly what our rates are and help you think through options like long-term care insurance or Medicaid planning, but we're upfront that this is usually a family responsibility, not an insurance benefit.
Home health aides provide basic assistance with activities of daily living and are usually ordered by a doctor after a hospital stay. Alzheimer's Care is specialized support for the unique behaviors and safety issues that come with memory loss. Our caregivers know how to redirect agitation, keep someone engaged during the day, and recognize when confusion is turning dangerous. We're trained for Alzheimer's specifically, not just general aging.
Yes. We meet with you and your parent before we assign anyone. We learn about their personality, their history, whether they prefer a male or female caregiver, their daily rhythms, what calms them down, and what triggers agitation. We then match someone from our team who fits. If it's not working after the first week, we'll make a change. We care about the person, not just filling the hours.
We have backup staff, and we notify you as soon as we know someone won't be there. We'll send a replacement caregiver we've already vetted and, when possible, someone your parent has met before. We understand that inconsistency is hard on someone with Alzheimer's, so we keep disruptions to a minimum. Our local team in Hartford County is large enough that we rarely have to leave you without coverage.
