Live-In Care is a caregiver in your parent’s home full-time, overnight included. They’re not a medical nurse, but they’re trained to notice changes, manage daily life, and be present. It’s the alternative families choose when assisted living isn’t wanted and staying home is the goal.
A typical day looks like breakfast made, medications taken on time, laundry done, light cleaning, appointment transportation, meals prepped, evening support, and someone sleeping in the house. Your parent isn’t alone. You’re not checking in every few hours. The caregiver becomes part of the routine, and your parent gets to stay in their own space.
Many Eastford families we work with have come through Day Kimball Hospital and need support at home afterward. Being nurse-founded means we understand what recovery looks like, what questions to ask, and how to brief a caregiver so the transition feels safe. We know this county and we know the discharge process.
We were nurses. We’ve sat with families who said no to facilities. We know that full-time presence at home isn’t the second choice, it’s often the right one. Live-In Care is how we make that work.
We don’t just send a caregiver. We listen to who your parent is, what matters to them, what they need help with, and what they can still do. The match takes time. It matters.
Live-In Care isn’t set and forget. Things change. If your caregiver gets sick, if your parent’s needs shift, if something doesn’t feel right, you reach us and we adjust. That’s part of the service.
We’re local. We understand the Day Kimball discharge process, we know Eastford’s neighborhoods and streets, and we’ve worked with families here long enough to know what works. That matters when you need someone fast.
How it works
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.
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
Your caregiver handles meals, medications, grooming support if needed, light housekeeping, laundry, and transportation to appointments. They're alert for changes in mood or health. They're there at night so your parent isn't alone. It's not medical nursing, but it's skilled observation and steady presence. The focus is on keeping your parent safe, comfortable, and at home.
We can start within days if we have notice. If you're expecting discharge, call us early so we can brief our caregiver on what Day Kimball shared about your parent's needs. If discharge is sudden, we'll work fast. The goal is no gap between hospital care and home care.
Live-In Care is private pay. Medicare covers skilled nursing for a limited time after hospitalization, but full-time in-home presence like this isn't a Medicare benefit. We can talk through costs and what's realistic for your family's situation. Many people use a combination of their own resources and sometimes adult children pitch in.
A home health aide comes a few hours a day, usually for bathing and personal care, and typically requires a doctor's order. Live-In Care is full-time, overnight included, and doesn't require a medical order. It's about presence and managing daily life, not medical tasks. Think of it as someone living in your parent's home to help them stay independent there.
Yes. We listen to what your parent needs, who they are, and what personality fit matters. Some parents want quiet, some want conversation. Some need mobility help, some need reminding about medications. We don't place a generic caregiver. We talk first, then match. It takes a little time, but it's worth it.
We have backup coverage. If your caregiver is sick or has an emergency, we step in with a trained replacement so your parent isn't left alone. We brief them on your parent's routine so the transition is smooth. You'll know about it right away. Continuity matters, and we protect it.
