Alzheimer’s Care isn’t the same as regular home care. We’re trained to move with the disease as it changes your parent’s memory, judgment, and safety awareness. Our caregivers know how to keep structure in a day that feels like it has no edges, how to respond when your parent is confused, and how to catch the small things before they become crises.
On any given day, this looks like medication reminders that stick, meals that actually get eaten, bathing and dressing that doesn’t turn into a battle, and someone in the house who understands why your parent won’t answer the phone or why they repeat the same question thirty times. You get someone watching for wandering, noticing changes in mood or appetite, and keeping a log so you’re not trying to piece together what happened when you called.
Families in Scotland often come to us after a hospital stay or a talk with their doctor at Windham Hospital. We’re nurse-founded, which means our caregivers understand the medical side of Alzheimer’s, not just the daily routine. We know what to look for and how to communicate with your doctors so nothing gets missed between home and clinic.
Our founder was a nurse, and so are the people we match to your parent’s care. We understand the stages of Alzheimer’s, not as textbook concepts, but as real moments in a real kitchen or bedroom. We show up knowing what you’re about to face and how to slow the panic.
We don’t send the first available person. We listen to your parent’s personality, their fears, what they did for work, what they love. Then we spend time pairing them with someone who gets it. This matters more in Alzheimer’s Care than in almost any other service.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t wait for business hours. When your parent has a bad night or you need to adjust something urgently, we’re here. You’re not left holding the phone trying to explain the situation to someone who doesn’t know your parent or their history.
We know the Scotland area, the neighborhoods, and we work with Windham Hospital on discharge planning. We show up fast after a hospital stay, and we understand the local doctors and facilities your parent’s already connected to.

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
Medication reminders and supervision, help with bathing and dressing, meal prep and feeding support, and someone present to watch for wandering or confusion. We also keep an eye on mood changes, toileting, and sleep patterns. Many families tell us the biggest relief is knowing their parent is safe and eating, and that someone is there who won't get frustrated or make things worse.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours, especially if your parent's discharge plan mentions memory care or behavior changes. We work directly with Windham Hospital's discharge team to get the information we need. The sooner we start, the sooner you both settle into a routine that works.
Alzheimer's Care through our agency is private pay. Some families use long-term care insurance or set aside funds specifically for this. We're honest about cost because we know it's a real question. We can talk through what you're looking at financially and help you plan.
A home health aide is trained for personal care and basic assistance. Alzheimer's Care includes all of that, but also specialized training in behavior, memory loss, safety awareness, and how the disease progresses. Our caregivers know not to argue about what day it is, how to redirect when your parent is upset, and when a small change might signal something bigger.
Yes. We take time to learn who your parent is, what they were like before, and what matters most to them now. We match caregivers based on personality, experience, and availability. We're not a temp service, we're looking for the right fit so your parent feels comfortable and safe.
We maintain a backup plan so your parent's care doesn't stop. We don't send strangers without notice. You'll hear from us first, and we'll either send someone your parent already knows or we'll work with you to adjust the day. Consistency matters in Alzheimer's Care, and we respect that.
