Live-In Care is a caregiver who lives in your parent’s home and is present during waking and sleeping hours. They handle personal care, meals, medication reminders, errands, light housekeeping, and companionship. It’s full-time presence without moving anyone to a facility.
On a typical day, your caregiver helps with bathing and dressing, prepares meals your parent actually wants to eat, manages medications on time, accompanies them to appointments, and keeps the house running. They’re there for falls, for midnight confusion, for the simple presence that prevents isolation. Families tell us it’s the difference between their parent living independently at home and slowly withdrawing.
Bolton families often come to us after a stay at Manchester Memorial Hospital or after a doctor’s visit made clear that something had to change. We were founded by nurses because we understand what full-time caregiving actually requires, and we know how to work with local hospitals and discharge planners. Live-In Care keeps your parent in the home they know while making sure they’re safe and supported every single day.
We were founded by nurses who saw families stuck between two impossible choices, afraid to move a parent but terrified to leave them alone. Live-In Care is the third option, and we’ve built our practice around making it work reliably for families in Tolland County and beyond.
We don’t just send a caregiver and hope it works. We learn your parent’s routines, preferences, and medical needs, then match someone who fits. You get a full briefing before the first day so everyone knows what to expect.
A parent’s needs change, a caregiver needs a day off, or your family situation evolves. We’re reachable and responsive because we know Live-In Care situations need real support on both ends.
We know Manchester Memorial Hospital’s discharge process, we understand Bolton’s roads and neighborhoods, and we work regularly with local doctors. That local knowledge matters when your parent needs coordinated care.

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 Live-In caregiver provides personal care like bathing and dressing, prepares meals and manages medications, handles light housekeeping and errands, and stays present for safety and companionship. They're available during daytime hours and overnight if your parent needs help. The specifics depend on your parent's needs, which we clarify during our initial consultation so the caregiver knows exactly what to expect.
We can often start within days of a discharge if we know about it in advance. If your parent is still in the hospital or recently home, call us as soon as possible so we can meet with your family, learn what's needed, and match the right caregiver. We work closely with Manchester Memorial's discharge planners to make sure the transition is smooth.
Live-In Care is private pay, meaning you and your family cover the cost directly rather than through insurance. Medicare typically covers skilled nursing or home health aide services ordered by a doctor for a specific medical need, but full-time Live-In Care falls outside that scope. We can discuss what private pay looks like for your situation and help you think through the investment.
A home health aide usually comes for a few hours on specific days, ordered by a doctor, often covered by Medicare. Live-In Care is a full-time presence in your parent's home, available around the clock. The difference is continuous oversight, companionship, and the peace of mind that someone is there if your parent falls, gets confused, or needs help at 2 a.m.
Yes. We meet with your family first to understand your parent's personality, routines, medical needs, and what matters most to them. Then we match someone with the right experience and fit. We know Bolton well enough to think about practical things too, like whether your parent needs someone comfortable with your neighborhood and local routes.
We maintain backup coverage so there's always someone reliable. If your primary caregiver is sick or needs time off, we coordinate a substitute we've already vetted and briefed. You won't be left scrambling, and your parent won't have a stranger they've never met walking in the door.
