Live-In Care means a caregiver is in your parent’s home full time, overnight included. They’re there to handle the daily things, the overnight things, the unexpected things. It’s different from an aide who comes a few hours a week. This is presence, consistency, and someone who knows your parent’s routine inside and out.
On a typical day, your caregiver helps with bathing, dressing, meals, and medications. They’re watching for changes, keeping the house running, preparing food your parent will actually eat, and being awake if there’s a fall or a middle-of-the-night need. They’re the person your parent sees in the morning and the last face they see at night.
Families in Torrington come to us after a Charlotte Hungerford Hospital discharge, or when they realize their parent needs more than occasional help. We’re nurse-founded, which means we know what full-time caregiving actually requires. We understand the difference between tasks and real presence. That changes how we match caregivers and how we support the whole situation.
Your parent doesn’t want to leave home. We get it because our founder has lived this with her own family. Live-In Care isn’t about convincing anyone to move. It’s about keeping them safe and supported right where they want to be.
We don’t send a caregiver and hope. We listen to who your parent is, what their day looks like, and what will matter to them. Then we match carefully and brief the caregiver fully so the first day isn’t a test run.
Live-In Care isn’t set it and forget it. We stay reachable when your parent’s needs shift, when medications change, when you need to talk through something at midnight. You have a person here who knows your family and the situation.
We’re local to Torrington, Litchfield, and Winsted. We know the Charlotte Hungerford Hospital discharge timeline, the neighborhoods, the doctors your parent sees. That local knowledge matters when you need something adjusted fast.

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 helps with all personal care, bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting. They prepare and oversee meals, manage medications and medication timing, help with light housekeeping, laundry, and errands. They're there overnight, awake and responsive. They watch for changes in your parent's behavior, mood, or health and let you know right away.
We can often start within 24 to 48 hours after discharge, depending on the caregiver match and your parent's needs. If you're planning ahead, we start conversations with you before discharge so the caregiver is ready to step in. If it's sudden, call us and we'll move fast. The goal is no gap between hospital and home support.
Live-In Care is private pay. Medicare and most insurance don't cover full-time in-home caregiving. We're transparent about cost upfront because this is a real decision for real budgets. We can sometimes help you understand what other resources might apply, but you should expect to pay out of pocket for this level of care.
A home health aide usually comes for a few hours a few days a week and is there for specific medical tasks. Live-In Care is a caregiver in your home 24/7, handling everything from morning routine to overnight support. It's continuity, consistency, and full presence. Your parent has the same person, so trust and routine actually develop.
Yes. We listen to who your parent is, their personality, their habits, their health needs, and what matters most to you. We don't match on availability alone. We match on fit. We tell the caregiver everything we know so they walk in prepared, and we check in regularly to make sure it's working.
We have a backup plan. If your regular caregiver is sick or has an emergency, we have a trained caregiver who can step in. Your parent's routine continues. We let you know immediately and make sure the backup person is briefed on everything they need to know. Continuity matters, so we take this seriously.
