You got a call from your sister after she visited for Thanksgiving. Your mom had forgotten she’d already eaten lunch, asked the same question three times in an hour, and couldn’t find her way back to her bedroom in the house on Rectory Road where she’s lived for thirty years. That’s when you knew you needed help, not eventually, but now.

Alzheimer’s Care isn’t just supervision. It’s staying alert to the specific ways memory loss changes day by day, helping your parent move through the day without getting lost in it, and catching the small things before they become crises. We watch for medication timing, make sure meals happen, and keep your parent safe when they wander or repeat themselves.
Most days this looks like a caregiver who knows your parent’s routine, can redirect gently when confusion rises, keeps the house organized so your parent can find what they need, and stays steady when the same conversation happens five times before noon. You get to stop holding your breath every time the phone rings.
Families in Pomfret and Windham County often turn to us after a hospital stay at Day Kimball Hospital or when their doctor says home care is the next step. Our founder is a nurse, which means every caregiver we match to Alzheimer’s Care understands the medical side of memory loss, not just the emotional one.
Our founder is a nurse who’s seen how Alzheimer’s unfolds and what families actually need at 2 a.m. when confusion peaks. We don’t hire caregivers and hope they’ll figure it out. We train them on structure, on keeping your parent safe when they wander, and on recognizing the exhaustion in your voice.
We spend time understanding what your parent needs on day one, then we introduce a caregiver who fits those needs, not just any available person. You’re not training someone new every week. You’re building trust with someone who knows your parent’s habits and can spot what’s changing.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. If your parent’s confusion deepens overnight or a medication interaction needs attention, you reach us and we respond. We’re not a large call center passing you to another shift. We know your family’s situation.
We work with discharge planners at Day Kimball Hospital and we know the transition from hospital to home. We’re familiar with the rhythms of Pomfret, Putnam, Woodstock, and the surrounding towns, and we can start care quickly when your family needs it.
How it works
We listen to your situation. No forms, no pressure, no sales pitch.
For Alzheimer’s Care specifically, not just whoever is available that week.

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 in your home helps with bathing and dressing, prepares meals, manages medications, keeps your parent oriented to the day and time, and watches for wandering or confusion. They also do light housekeeping and laundry, take your parent for walks if they want them, and document what's happening so you stay informed. The routine stays consistent, which is what your parent's brain needs most.
We can often start within 48 hours of a referral, sometimes sooner. We work directly with Day Kimball's discharge team and we have caregivers available in the Pomfret area. We'll do a brief meeting with you to understand your parent's specific needs, then introduce the caregiver who's the right fit. The faster we start, the faster your family can breathe.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means it's not covered by Medicare or most insurance plans. We know that's a real conversation to have. The benefit is that you're not fighting authorization delays or limited hours. We can be there as much as your family needs, and the cost is predictable. We can discuss options and pricing based on how many hours a week make sense for you.
A home health aide typically comes after a doctor's order for medical reasons and has a time limit. Alzheimer's Care is ongoing support designed specifically for memory loss, which is a long-term condition. We focus on structure, safety, and keeping your parent oriented. We're not billing insurance, so we can adjust hours and caregivers without waiting for approvals.
Yes. We take time to learn about your parent's personality, habits, what they remember and what they've forgotten, and what makes them feel safe. Then we match a caregiver who fits. If it's not working after a week or two, we adjust. Your parent deserves someone they connect with, and so do you.
We have backup caregivers in the Pomfret area, so your parent isn't left without someone. We notify you in advance when possible and bring in a backup who knows about your parent's needs. We don't cancel on you because of one person's schedule. Your family's stability matters more than that.
