Live-In Care is one caregiver in your parent’s home, full-time. They’re there overnight, they’re there in the morning, they’re there all day. It’s not a visiting service. It’s a continuous presence so your parent has help with everything from meals and medication to getting around safely, getting to appointments, and just having someone there if something goes wrong at 2 a.m.
On a typical day, your caregiver helps with personal hygiene, dressing, meal prep, light housekeeping, medication reminders, mobility support, and companionship. They keep notes so you know what’s happening. They’re trained to notice changes, like a new pain or confusion, and they tell you about it. You’re not managing this alone.
A lot of Bethany families have a parent recovering at home after Yale New Haven Hospital, or they’ve been home for a while and things are getting harder. We’re nurse-founded, which means we hire people who understand the medical side and the human side of care, not just task completion. That matters when you’re entrusting someone with your parent’s daily life.
Your parent doesn’t want assisted living. We get that. Live-In Care lets them stay home, in their own bed, with their own things around them. We’ve seen how much that matters, and we built our service around making it work, not around pushing someone out the door.
We don’t throw a caregiver at you and hope it sticks. We brief you on what your parent needs, we listen to what matters to your family, and we match carefully. We’ve placed caregivers in Bethany homes long enough to know that personality fit and reliability are as important as skills.
Your parent’s needs shift. A caregiver gets sick. You have a question at 9 p.m. on a Sunday. We’re still here. You have direct contact with us, not a voicemail system. We’re managing the relationship, not just the transaction.
We’ve worked with Yale New Haven Hospital’s discharge team. We understand the transition home. We know the doctors, the labs, the pharmacies in this area. That local knowledge means faster coordination and fewer dropped details.

We listen to your situation. No forms, no pressure, no sales pitch.
For Live-In 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.

Private Duty Aides is nurse-founded.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A caregiver is present in your parent's home from morning through night, providing help with bathing, dressing, grooming, meals, medication reminders, mobility support, and household tasks. They also provide companionship and monitor for any changes in your parent's health or safety. You get regular updates so you know what's happening. The caregiver is trained to respond to emergencies and knows when to call you or 911.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of discharge if you contact us right away. The faster you reach out, the faster we can brief on your parent's needs, do the matching, and get your caregiver in place. If your parent is still in the hospital, we can coordinate with the discharge planner so the transition is ready to go the day they come home.
Live-In Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance plans don't cover full-time in-home caregiving. That said, many families find the cost is less than assisted living or memory care facilities, and your parent gets to stay home. We can talk through the financial piece with you so there are no surprises.
Home health aides typically visit for a few hours per week and are ordered by a doctor for post-recovery care. Live-In Care is full-time, continuous presence in your home. There's someone there overnight, every single day. It's designed for ongoing support, not short-term recovery, and it means your parent is never alone.
Yes. We ask detailed questions about your parent's personality, habits, medical history, and what matters most to your family. We listen to what you need from a caregiver, and we match thoughtfully. We've got experience placing caregivers in Bethany and we know the community. That helps us find the right fit.
We maintain backup coverage so there's always someone in your parent's home. If your caregiver is sick or has an emergency, we step in with a backup from our network. You're not left scrambling. We keep you informed and we work to minimize disruption to your parent's routine.
