Alzheimer’s Care is structured support in your home designed around how the disease actually progresses. It’s not generic caregiving. It’s someone trained to recognize the stages of memory loss, to keep routines in place when routines are what hold a person together, and to watch for the safety risks that sneak up on families. We help with daily activities, medication reminders, meal structure, and the things your family can’t always be there to catch.
On any given day, this might look like: helping your parent get dressed and eat breakfast at the same time each morning because routine feels safe, staying alert during afternoon hours when confusion and wandering risk spike, managing medication schedules so nothing is missed or doubled, and keeping the house set up so your parent can move through it without falling. You’ll also get space. Real space. Time to work, to sleep without listening for the phone at 2 a.m., to stop carrying the weight of it alone.
Many Southington families come to us after a hospital stay or after their parent’s doctor suggests they need eyes on them at home. We work with MidState Medical Center on discharge planning, and we’re familiar with the local emergency system and what happens when things change fast. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand Alzheimer’s from the medical side, not just the practical side, and we build care plans that catch problems before they become emergencies.
Our founder is a nurse. We know how Alzheimer’s unfolds month to month, and we build your care plan around what’s coming, not just what’s happening today. We watch for the wandering patterns, the medication confusion, the middle-of-the-night restlessness. We keep structure in place because structure is what slows the fear.
We spend time learning what your parent responds to, what their routines were, what calms them. Then we match a caregiver who fits, not just someone available. During the first week, we brief them on everything we’ve learned and check in daily to make sure it’s working.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. When your caregiver notices something new, when your parent has a difficult day, when you need to adjust the plan, we answer. You’re not calling a national hotline. You’re calling people who know your situation.
We know Southington and the towns around it. We know the doctors at MidState Medical Center. We know how to coordinate with local hospitals, pharmacies, and the community resources families need when Alzheimer’s Care gets more complex.

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 helping your parent with personal care (bathing, dressing, grooming), preparing meals and keeping eating on schedule, reminding about medications and watching that they're taken, keeping the house safe by checking doors and removing hazards, monitoring for wandering or confusion, and staying calm and present during difficult moments. We also do light housekeeping, laundry, and we keep you updated on what we're seeing. You're never guessing what's happening at home.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge. We work directly with MidState's discharge team, so they can reach us while your parent is still in the hospital. We'll get the hospital notes, talk to the social worker, and have a caregiver ready to go home with your family or meet you there the next morning. If it's urgent, we move faster.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing and therapy, but not the ongoing daily support and monitoring that Alzheimer's families need most. We work with many families to understand their options, and we're honest about cost from the beginning. Some families use long-term care insurance or Medicaid planning, and we can point you to the right resources for that conversation.
A home health aide typically helps with basic personal care and is ordered by a doctor for a specific medical reason, usually for a set number of hours per week. Alzheimer's Care is different because we're trained specifically in how the disease works, we watch for safety risks others miss, we provide the structure and routine that slows decline, and we're available on a schedule that matches your parent's needs, not a medical formula. We're also here for the long term, not just until insurance says you're recovered.
Yes. We ask a lot of questions before we match anyone. We want to know about your parent's history, what they like, how they respond to men versus women, what time of day is hardest for them, whether they do better with a calm presence or someone more talkative. Then we find someone who fits that picture. It's not about filling a slot. It's about finding the right person for your family.
We have backup. We keep a roster of trained caregivers in the Southington area, and we do everything we can to minimize changes because Alzheimer's families thrive on consistency. But we know life happens. If your caregiver gets sick, we work quickly to either call in someone your parent knows or adjust the schedule to cover the gap. You won't be left without support.
