Alzheimer’s Care is specialized in-home support for people in the early to mid stages of the disease. A trained caregiver stays with your parent, managing the day-to-day routines that become harder as the disease progresses, while you get back to your own life knowing someone steady is there.
Your caregiver handles medication reminders, meal prep, bathing, dressing, and the invisible work of keeping structure when memory starts to slip. They watch for safety risks, especially wandering, and they understand the repetition and confusion that comes with Alzheimer’s without frustration or hurry. Most families tell us the real relief is knowing someone is there so they can stop being afraid.
Many families in Wilton come to us right after discharge from Norwalk Hospital, or when a doctor’s appointment makes clear that memory care is needed now. We’re nurse-founded, which means our caregivers are trained in how Alzheimer’s actually progresses and what your parent needs at each stage, not just what a standard aide knows.
Our founder is a nurse who has worked in memory care. That means your caregiver knows what’s coming, what to watch for, and how to keep your parent safe as the disease changes. You’re not figuring this out alone.
We don’t just send someone. We listen to what your parent was like before, what they respond to now, and what matters most to your family. The right caregiver makes everything smoother, especially in Alzheimer’s Care.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule. If your parent’s needs change or your caregiver gets sick, we pivot quickly. You’re never calling a voicemail line hoping someone calls back.
We’re local. We know the discharge process at Norwalk Hospital, we understand the rhythms of Wilton neighborhoods like Georgetown and Cannondale, and we’ve supported families through transitions that Ridgefield or Westport care managers don’t see as often.

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 comes to your home for the hours you arrange, usually mornings and afternoons when confusion and safety risks are highest. They remind your parent to eat and take medication, help with bathing and dressing, keep the house running, and stay alert for wandering or signs of distress. They also give you real information at the end of the day so you know what happened and what's changing. It's not medical nursing, but it's structured, attentive care that stops the chaos.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours if you call us while your parent is still in the hospital or the day they come home. We take a brief history from you, match a trained caregiver, and get them oriented to your home and your parent's routine right away. If you need same-day coverage, call us directly and we'll work to make it happen.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means you cover the cost directly. Medicare and most insurance plans don't pay for this type of non-medical in-home support, though some long-term care policies do. We're transparent about costs upfront. Many families find it's worth the investment to avoid the alternative, which is either managing alone or moving to facility care.
A home health aide is ordered by a doctor after a hospital stay and focuses on recovery or managing a specific medical condition. Alzheimer's Care is specialized support for memory loss itself. Our caregivers are trained in what to expect as Alzheimer's progresses, how to prevent wandering, and how to keep your parent engaged and safe when the disease is the main issue, not a broken hip or surgery recovery.
Yes. We ask you detailed questions about your parent's personality, what they did before Alzheimer's, what times of day are hardest, whether they're a morning person, if they have pets, what they still enjoy. Then we match someone who fits that picture and gets trained on your parent's specific routine. It's not random assignment. The right fit makes a real difference.
We call you with notice as soon as we know, then we send a backup caregiver we've already vetted and trained. We don't skip days and leave you scrambling. If the backup isn't a good fit either, we problem-solve with you to find someone who works better. You should never feel like you're back to square one when someone gets sick.
