Live-in care means a trained caregiver is in your parent’s home during the day, evening, or overnight, providing the kind of steady presence that makes staying home possible. It’s not medical nursing. It’s someone who helps with meals, medications, mobility, personal care, and the small moments in between that matter most.
On a typical day, you’ll see your parent getting dressed, eating regular meals, taking medications on time, moving safely around the house, and having someone to talk to. Our caregivers handle light housekeeping, accompany your parent to appointments, and stay alert to changes in health or mood. The goal is simple: your parent stays in their own home, living their life, with trained eyes and hands nearby.
Families in Roxbury often reach out after a hospital stay at New Milford Hospital or when they realize that checking in by phone twice a day isn’t enough anymore. We’re nurse-founded, which means we understand what full-time presence actually requires, how to spot early warning signs, and how to communicate clearly with doctors and family about what’s really happening at home.
Your parent has said no to assisted living, and we respect that. Live-in care is built for families who need their parent to stay home, and for caregivers trained to support that without judgment. We’ve seen this situation hundreds of times, and we know how to make it work safely.
We don’t just send someone over. We talk with you about your parent’s personality, habits, and needs, then place a caregiver we think will actually fit. Our caregivers are experienced, background-checked, and trained in the specific kind of attentiveness live-in work demands.
If a caregiver gets sick, if your parent’s needs shift, or if something comes up at 10 p.m., you reach us. We manage the backup, we troubleshoot, and we keep you in the loop. You’re not managing the caregiving alone.
We know New Milford Hospital’s discharge process, we know Roxbury’s roads and neighborhoods, and we work with local doctors and pharmacies. That local knowledge makes a real difference in timing and coordination.

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.

You get the same consistent caregiver, matched by a nurse, not whoever happens to be available.
Common questions
A live-in caregiver helps with personal care like bathing and grooming, meal preparation and eating, medication reminders, safe mobility around the home, and light housekeeping. They're present for appointments, grocery trips, or any outings your parent needs. Most importantly, they're there throughout the day or night, watching for falls, confusion, or signs that your parent's health is changing. It's presence plus practical support, not medical nursing.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours of a hospital discharge if you call us right away. We coordinate directly with the hospital's discharge planners, gather your parent's care information, and match a caregiver quickly. If your parent is coming home with new needs or recent complications, moving fast matters, and we're set up to do that.
Live-in care is private pay, meaning you'll cover the cost directly. Medicare and most insurance plans don't reimburse for full-time custodial care at home. We're transparent about our rates and what that includes, and we can discuss payment options. Many families find it's still less expensive than assisted living facilities.
Home health aides come for a few hours a few times a week, usually ordered by a doctor and covered by insurance for medical reasons. Live-in care means a caregiver is there full-time, day or evening or overnight, providing the continuous supervision and support that lets your parent stay home safely. It's the difference between a few hours of help and a full-time presence.
Yes. We talk with you about your parent's personality, daily routine, health needs, and what matters most to your family. Then we match a caregiver we think will fit, not just check boxes. We also take time to introduce the caregiver and help them learn your parent's house and habits before we count it as started.
We coordinate a backup. If a caregiver is sick or can't work a shift, we find a trained replacement and let you know right away. You're not scrambling to find coverage yourself. We manage the continuity so your parent's routine stays as normal as possible, and you can trust that someone qualified is there.
