Your mom’s medication alarm went off at noon last Tuesday, and she didn’t hear it from the kitchen table where she sits most mornings now. The tremors make it harder for her to hold the pill bottle steady, and you’re two towns over wondering if she’s taken her doses on time. You know something has to change, but you also know she wants to stay in her own Montville home, and so do you.

Parkinson’s Care is home support built around the real challenges your parent faces right now. We’re talking about helping with medication schedules so nothing gets missed, watching for falls and working with your parent on movement and balance, tracking tremors and how they change, and keeping your parent safe and engaged while staying home. This isn’t medical nursing; it’s the steady, informed presence that makes home life actually workable.
On a typical day, your caregiver checks in on medications, helps with morning routines, watches for signs of fatigue or stiffness that affect mobility, keeps an eye on appetite and hydration, and stays alert to changes in mood or balance. They’re there to catch small problems before they become hospital visits. They also give you and your family real peace of mind because someone trained in Parkinson’s is paying attention.
Montville families often call us right after a discharge from William W. Backus Hospital, when your parent is home but still figuring out how to manage on their own. We’re nurse-founded, which means every caregiver we send understands the medical side of Parkinson’s, not just the personal care side. That background makes a real difference when tremors spike or a fall risk shows up.
We started this work because nurses saw gaps in what home care usually offers. Our caregivers understand tremors, falls, medication timing, and mobility decline not just as tasks, but as symptoms that change and need attention. When your parent’s Parkinson’s progresses, we recognize it and adjust.
You tell us what your parent needs, and we listen for fit, not just availability. After we place a caregiver, we stay in the loop, checking in regularly and shifting things if your parent’s needs change. It’s not a transaction; it’s an ongoing relationship.
Parkinson’s doesn’t follow a schedule, and neither do we. If your parent has a fall scare or medication questions or a new symptom on a Saturday, you can reach us. We’re here to solve problems fast, not hand you a voicemail.
We know Montville, Waterford, and the hospitals around here. We’ve worked with William W. Backus Hospital’s discharge team and understand how to bridge that gap between hospital and home. Being local means we move quickly and we care about your actual community.

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 caregiver arrives for your scheduled hours and handles medication reminders, checks that your parent has eaten and drunk enough, helps with personal care and dressing, watches for falls or balance problems, takes note of tremors or stiffness, keeps the home safe and tidy, and talks with you about anything that's changed. They're not a nurse doing medical procedures, but they're trained to spot when something needs a doctor's attention and to tell you right away. The day looks different depending on whether your parent needs help a few hours a week or every day, but the focus stays the same: keeping your parent safe and home.
We typically can have someone in place within 24 to 48 hours if you call us before or the day after discharge. We work with the hospital's discharge team to understand what your parent needs, and we move fast because we know that the first week home is the hardest. If you need someone immediately, we'll do everything we can to make that happen. Call us as soon as you know your parent is being discharged, and we'll handle the rest.
Parkinson's Care is private pay, which means you're paying out of pocket rather than billing insurance. We know that's real money, and we're honest about costs upfront. Some families use long-term care insurance or savings; some arrange care a few hours a week to manage expense. We work with you on scheduling and pricing so the arrangement makes sense for your family. If you have questions about what might be covered under your specific plan, we can talk through that too.
Home health aides are usually sent by a medical agency and often work under a doctor's order after a hospital stay, with visits covered by insurance or Medicare. Parkinson's Care is different because we're trained specifically in Parkinson's symptoms, progression, and safety needs, and we're available whether or not your parent has a recent medical event. We're also here for the long stretch, not just a short recovery period. If your parent's Parkinson's is stable but you need reliable, informed support at home, we're the fit. If your parent needs medical nursing care, that's a different service.
Yes. We listen to what your parent is like, what help they actually need, and what kind of person would work well in your home. We ask about personality, routines, mobility challenges, and medication complexity. Then we introduce you to a caregiver we think fits, and you have a say in whether it works. We're not going to send someone and hope for the best. We care about the match because a good fit makes everything easier for your parent and for you.
We have backup coverage so your parent isn't left hanging. If your regular caregiver is sick or there's an emergency, we place someone else from our team as quickly as we can, and we always tell you what's happening. We know Parkinson's Care requires consistency and trust, so we take backup seriously. It's not perfect every time, but we work hard to keep your parent's routine steady and safe.
