Alzheimer’s Care is hands-on support for someone in the early or middle stages of memory loss. We’re talking about help with the daily structure that keeps your parent grounded, medication reminders so doses don’t get missed, supervision during the times when confusion runs highest, and intervention if they wander or try to leave. It’s not medical nursing, it’s the steady presence that lets you stop carrying the full weight alone.
On any given day, your caregiver might help your parent get dressed, make sure they eat and drink enough, keep them occupied with something that feels purposeful, walk them around the neighborhood safely, help them use the bathroom without embarrassment, and watch for the signs that something’s off. Families tell us the difference between trying to manage this alone and having someone there is the difference between surviving and actually sleeping at night.
If your parent just came home from Yale New Haven Hospital or if you’re managing their care here in Woodbridge, we know that transition inside and out. Our founder is a nurse who spent years in home care, and that means we understand Alzheimer’s progression, what structure actually does, and how to spot safety risks before they become crises. We’re not starting from theory, we’re starting from experience.
Our agency was started by a nurse who worked in home care long enough to understand what Alzheimer’s actually looks like day to day, what families are really exhausted by, and why wandering and missed medication matter more than you’d think. We don’t approach this from a clinical checklist, we approach it from knowing what you need to keep going.
We brief every caregiver on your parent’s specific triggers, routines, and what matters to them. Then we match them based on experience with Alzheimer’s progression, not just availability. Once your caregiver is in place, they’re your caregiver, and we move with you as things change.
Alzheimer’s doesn’t follow a schedule, and neither do we. When you need to talk through what you’re seeing, when you need to adjust care, or when you need backup on short notice, someone here picks up who actually knows your situation.
We’re local to Woodbridge, New Haven, Bethany, and Orange. We know the Yale New Haven Hospital discharge process, the neighborhoods where our clients live, and the rhythm of families here. We’re not a regional service, we’re your neighbors.

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 typical day includes helping your parent with hygiene and dressing, making sure meals and medications happen on time, keeping them engaged in something that feels normal to them, and watching for safety risks like wandering or confusion spikes. You'll know what your caregiver did when you come home or when you call, and they'll flag anything that feels different. It's not medical care, it's the structure and eyes that prevent small problems from becoming big ones.
We can often start within days of discharge if you reach out early. We work with the hospital's discharge planners and know the transition process well. The faster you get in touch, the better we can coordinate with any medical equipment or instructions from the hospital, and the sooner your parent has someone they know in the home.
Alzheimer's Care is private pay, which means it's not covered by Medicare or most insurance plans. This actually works in your favor because it means we're not limited by what an insurance company will approve, we're just focused on what your parent actually needs. We can talk through the cost and help you understand what you're getting for it.
A home health aide typically comes after a medical event or hospitalization and is ordered by a doctor as part of recovery. Alzheimer's Care is about the ongoing presence and structure for someone with memory loss, whether or not there's a recent medical event. We're focused on keeping them safe, oriented, and engaged every single day, not just on recovery from a specific illness.
Yes. We talk with you first about what your parent's like, what their triggers are, what time of day is hardest, and what they used to love doing. Then we match them with someone who has real experience with Alzheimer's and who fits the personality. Once we find that person, they stay your person, not a rotating schedule.
We have backup caregivers trained and ready so you're never left scrambling. If your regular caregiver is sick or has an emergency, we fill it with someone who's been briefed on your parent's needs. We know that continuity matters with Alzheimer's, so we keep the same person as much as we can, but you're never without support.
