How it works
We begin by understanding your loved one's needs, preferences, and routines through a detailed consultation — so care is personalized from the very first day.
We design a custom care plan focused on safety, comfort, and dignity — supporting independence while protecting emotional and physical well-being.
Our team continuously monitors and adjusts the plan to meet evolving needs, providing consistent, reliable, compassionate service every step of the way.
Common questions
We provide non-medical home care across Connecticut: companion care, personal care, dementia and Alzheimer's support, respite, 24-hour and overnight care, post-surgical recovery, live-in, veteran, hospice support, and stroke recovery. If you are not sure which fits, we will help you find the right starting point.
We serve families statewide, from Fairfield and New Haven counties across the rest of Connecticut. Each service links to town-level pages so you can see coverage in your specific area.
Usually within 24 to 48 hours. After a short consultation we match a caregiver to your loved one's needs and personality, and care can often start the same week, faster when a hospital discharge is involved.
No. Private Duty Aides provides non-medical companion and homemaker services only: we do not provide skilled nursing, medication administration, or medical treatment. We coordinate alongside your loved one’s medical providers when needed.
Non-medical home care is generally private-pay, and standard Medicare does not cover it. Long-term care insurance and VA benefits like Aid & Attendance may help, and we are glad to walk you through the options during a free consultation.
Because we were founded by a registered nurse, we match on temperament and personality as much as skill and availability. You get a consistent caregiver, with a familiar backup, not a rotating cast of strangers.
