Call (475) 264-4830 Learn how it works
Alzheimer’s Care is ongoing support for someone in the middle of cognitive decline, when the disease is changing behavior, memory, and what feels safe. It’s not a one-time visit or medication management. It’s someone in your home, maintaining routine, recognizing when your parent is losing track of time, stepping in before a fall, and giving you a break.
On a typical day, your caregiver helps with breakfast, keeps medication organized, takes a walk outside even if it’s the same block three times, reminds your parent of who’s visiting, watches for signs of wandering or distress, and sits with them during the hardest hours. You’ll see them write down what happened, what your parent ate, how they slept. You’ll get your life back in pieces.
After Hospital of Central Connecticut discharge, families in New Britain often call us within days. We’re nurse-founded, which means we don’t just follow a checklist. We understand Alzheimer’s progression because we’ve sat with families through it, and we build your care plan around what actually happens in your home, not what looks good on paper.
Our founder was a nurse who watched families crumble under the weight of this disease. We match caregivers who’ve already walked this road and won’t panic when your parent repeats the same question for the fiftieth time. We know wandering, sundowning, and the specific exhaustion that comes at 3 a.m.
We don’t send the first available person. We learn your parent’s habits, fears, and the hours that are hardest. We match someone with Alzheimer’s experience who fits your home and your parent’s personality. When it’s right, you’ll feel the difference immediately.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow business hours. When your parent’s behavior changes, when you’re worried about a fall, or when you need to increase hours, you call us and we respond. We’re not a call center passing you to someone else. We’re local and we’re reachable.
We know Hospital of Central Connecticut’s discharge process, the roads in New Britain and Berlin, and the rhythm of Hartford County. We’ve worked with neighbors helping neighbors, and we know what real families need after diagnosis.

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
Your caregiver arrives and helps with breakfast, checks that medications are taken, keeps your parent engaged with simple activities or a walk. They watch for signs of wandering, frustration, or confusion. They help with hygiene, keep the home safe, answer the same questions patiently, and document what happened so you know how your parent's day went. The goal is structure, safety, and giving you time to breathe.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of your call. We'll do a home visit to understand your parent's needs and the layout of your house. We'll match a caregiver with Alzheimer's experience and brief them thoroughly. If Hospital of Central Connecticut discharge planners are involved, we work directly with them to make the transition smooth.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing or therapy after a hospital stay, but ongoing care for cognitive decline and safety isn't typically covered. We work with families on rate discussions and can sometimes help navigate options, but we're honest about what insurance will and won't cover.
A home health aide provides personal care and can assist with activities of daily living. Alzheimer's Care is specialized for someone in cognitive decline. Our caregivers understand behavior changes, how to redirect without frustration, how to maintain routine when memory is failing, and how to keep your parent safe when they no longer understand risk. It's not just help with bathing, it's presence and expertise.
Yes. We don't use a one-size-fits-all model. We learn about your parent's history, what upsets them, what time of day is hardest, what activities they still enjoy, and what your family's values are. Then we match someone with Alzheimer's experience who fits. If the match isn't working after a trial period, we adjust.
We have backup caregivers trained on your parent's needs and home. We let you know as soon as possible if there's a change. We don't leave you without coverage. If someone is out, we send a backup you've already met or we're upfront about what's happening. Your parent's care doesn't stop.
